Clearly someone was overpaid

I went to my doctor the other day to try to find a new treatment plan to get my Crohn’s disease under some type of manageable situation. They decided I needed to try this new medication and seeing as I see no other alternative, I said O.K.

We talked about how the new drug would be administered and the potential side effects. They gave me this nice little binder with all kinds of pertinent information for me to read at my leisure.

When I got home I got out the said binder to find out more about this new treatment. I started finding out how I was more at risk for all types side effects like multiple sclerosis, lymphoma, deadly infections…hell, I’d be surprised if I didn’t grow a third nipple. Wouldn’t that make Rico a happy man.

Upon more investigation into said binder, I discovered a card. And the discovery of this card makes me wonder what kind of moron gets paid to develop this kind of nonsense.

Because seriously, if I have to use the bathroom that bad…do you honestly think I am gonna have time to fish that thing out of my purse and have time for a person to read it?

    I was going to say that I was speechless, but on second thought you might think about wearing that around your neck like a medical alert necklace :)

    That is brillant. Do they make the cards in different colors though? :)

    Umm…as a WLS patient, I’m in possession of a handy-dandy wallet card. I have rarely had to use it, but it cuts down on objections if you need to use facilities that aren’t public in your case.

    I think I need one of those….

    Oh my! LOL!!!

    Although as mentioned; I wonder if you couldn’t use it to get into places that don’t have “public” restrooms? (Like a Dr.’s note for potty privileges?)

    I love that not only did one moron come up with it, but several other went “omg! that’s a fantastic idea!”

    How FUNNY!!!! HOWEVER…. I have recently suffered traumatic brain damage, and a card like that might be useful when I can’t think of the words… I have also thought of a t-shirt that says, “yes, I am brain damaged”

    Moron isn’t even the word for whoever made the card. Reminds me of our school board hiring someone to tell them how to cut down the school electric bill-60,000 later he tells them turn the lights out when school is dismissed. Maybe he worked for the company that made your card too?

    Do they make those for 3 year olds? Except without all the ‘medical condition’ and ‘understanding’ stuff.

    Check out mercola.com for some great options into treating Crohns disease!

    God bless-

    As a sufferer of IBS for years (sometimes horribly) I can appreciate this card. BUT, I can tell you it would be TOO LATE by the time you found the card, the person read the card & said “R U KIDDIN ME?”. I just found your blog & am reading the whole thing!! You are hilarious!!
