Overheard in the OR

Nurse: Well, we’d like you to stay here for a little bit while we watch your blood sugar levels.
Patient: Okay
Nurse: We need you to eat something, we have apple juice, orange juice, crackers…what would you like
Patient: Um…I’m doing Atkins…do you have diet coke?

Nurse: Do you have any allergies
Patient: Yes. Aspirin, Iodine, latex, anesthesia, AND ephineprine. (Emphasis mine…chick is allergic to the thing that counterracts the effects of allergic reactions!!!)

    You should read to the end of the Atkins book. You are allowed to eat anything before going in to surgery.
