RT Book, Section A1 Murtagh, John SR Print(0) ID 1124555415 T1 Red faces T2 Cautionary Tales: Authentic Case Histories from Medical Practice, 2e YR 2016 FD 2016 PB The McGraw-Hill companies PP Sydney, Australia SN 9780070285408 LK murtagh.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1124555415 RD 2024/03/28 AB My young medical colleague in a city practice had just completed writing a pad prescription for an oral contraceptive for a young woman who infrequently came to the practice. My colleague noted that she had not had a Pap smear for three years and she willingly agreed that in the presence of the practice sister she would have one now. My young colleague went to fetch the sister and noted that a 20-year-old man was having an unusual type of convulsion on the floor of the waiting room. He administered necessary first aid to the young man, who then stood up and seemed perfectly lucid and well. My colleague’s Pap smear lady suddenly rushed from the examination room where she had been left on the couch during this man’s alleged convulsion, grabbed him by the arm, dashed out of the door and was never to be seen again.
