Quick Story: The Patch


A doctor story:

During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having trouble with one of his medications. 

"Which one?" I asked. 

"The patch. The nurse told me to put on a new one every six hours and now I'm running out of places to put it!" 

I had him quickly undress and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see...Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body! Now, the instructions include removal of the old patch before applying a new one.
