BRATISLAVA:If you notice, I added viral conjunctivitis (aka Apollo by laymen) to my differential diagnoses. It presents with eye grittiness which may explain the ibuprofen. I'm not defending his prescription tho. There were mistakes there. By the way, hope you know viral conjunctivitis is now prevalent. Take precautions |

FreeStuffsNG:There is a reason why they are called Medical doctors as they are primarily in charge of the patients. It will have been easier to swap responsiblity if you think you know better. There are certain details they know about the patient that you might not be aware of. As far as I'm concerned, they have superior knowledge of Pathophysiology basis of Diseases hence some of the alterations which may look wrong when you see them that's where comprehensive history taking from the patients comes in. If you think the doctor prescription is wrong, the right thing to do is to call his attention to it rather changing his prescription when YOU did not even get Patient detailed history in the first place. In saner climes, you'd be arrested before you even think of doing that. 1 Like |

jaephoenix: I know you'll apply your flawed logical reason to my response the way you do all religious matters. Didn't you see I wrote that those handwritings are part or the training? Why did you have to learn a separate kind of writing from med school? Telling me I have the obligation to ask the doc is balderdash. Why the doc must write in a separate way from his normal handwriting is the only way to answer question. |

That was how an inhouse pharmacist in a hospital gave me a wrong drug. Thanks for my curiosity, checked the indication and nothing related to my health condition was mentioned there. I raised alarm and pharmacist ran to the doctor to clarify, lo and behold, I was right. Doctors in the house should learn how to write in a language both your patient and the pharmacist can comprehend. A lot have died cos of this negligence. I can't take drugs I have zero knowledge of. Not me. |

FxMasterz:Dude, thats the same handwriting we use, whether work or personal. I talk for myself anyway. So why is explaining patient rights to a patient balderdash? U well so? |

jaephoenix: You well so? Why contradicting yourself? After saying yo learnt to write that way in med school, you still come out to say it's your normal handwriting. Don't you reason before you talk? |

BRATISLAVA:Its not about hygiene. You can have the best hygiene and have viral conjunctivitis every day. Why? It's spread via body fluids and droplets. So you can pick it up from door handles, exchanging pens etc |

Polyol:The law doesn't require you to read the doc prescription but it requires the doc to intimate you of the drugs, especially if you ask. So please ignore the prescription sheet hieroglyphics and always ask your doc what he prescribes. Its your rights 1 Like |

FxMasterz:If u understand English I said I learned to write this way from med school and it has stuck with since then me whether I'm writing at work or anywhere. Should I type in your native language for you to understand ? |

jaephoenix:It was not your normal writing. It is part of your professional training which has now become second nature to you. The question is, why must you learn a new way to write in the first place? Why must you abandon your normal handwriting for a new illegible one? Do I have to write in your native language for you to understand? |
Re: Why Are Medical Doctors' Handwriting So Difficult To Read?(photo) by jaephoenix(m): 9:09pm On Oct 17, 2023 |
BRATISLAVA:You still don't understand. Someone with viral conjunctivitis has hyperlacrimations(excessive eye secretions) and gritty eyes, and thus would rub his eyes to clear them and reduce the pain, itchiness and fluid. Now he'll come to the hospital and open the doors with virus(and bacteria superinfection) laden hands. The next patient with something different like malaria comes, opens the same door and picks up some virus. Then rubs his eyes or nose, few days later gets it. He may also pick it if he borrows a pen or a personal object from the conjunctivitis guy. Would you say the second person(malaria patient) has poor hygiene? That's why I regularly wipe down my consulting room door handles with spirit swab after I get these cases. To prevent the next patient picking it up |
