Subject: The Doctor and the Medication Patch
From: Anne Ward-Ryan

During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having trouble with one of his medications.

"Which one?" I asked.

"The patch. The nurse told me to put a new one on every six hours and now I'm running out of places to put it!"

I had him quickly undress and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see.

Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body! Now, the instructions include removal of the old patch before applying a new one.
