Being allergic to the glue on bandaids and medical tape

***Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds*** · 11-08-2009, 07:30 AM

A simple burn dressing, normally just a bandaid to keep out any germs and prevent infection, or even gauze held in place with medical paper tape, suddenly becomes a whole mini bandage around my hand.

It was only two weeks ago that I was painfully and with much itching reminded of my reaction to the glues. I hadn't used a bandaid for so long, I'd forgotten. >:[

I wonder what getting a shot is like for you.

The same as anyone else?

But she can't put a bandaid on it. D:

Use duct tape.

^If the person giving the shot didn't know that the person I forgot about was allergic, he/she would probably put a bandaid on instead of duct tape. And it would be worse with knock-out gass. Which, yes, in my twisted mind, I can see why they would need it.

I think that kind of stuff would be in the records.

Wow, that is really sucky. About an eight on the Flesch-Kincaid suckiness scale.
