Just thought...

I've just been thinking and remembered that I had a reaction to Amoxicillin a number of years ago and whenever I've had antibiotics since then my GP has always gave me something else...

Obviously I will bring this up with my nurse at the pre-op in a couple of weeks but just wondering if this will be a problem? Worrying myself lol xx

Theres plenty of other antibiotics out there. I havent needed any for both my ops x

dont think so hun there's so many different types of antibiotic around it will be easy to give you a different one just let them know xx was it the penicillin you had a reaction too? xx

Yeah the penicillin was what caused the reaction... I just remembered now and realised I never put it on my forms at Transform but I'll just make sure I tell the nurse :-) xx

Make sure you tell them at the hospital aswell, they should ask you if you have had any allergic reactions to anything xx

Don't worry they will find an alternative I'm sure for u xx

There will be an alternative babe but its important you let the clinic know ASAP so that when your notes are passed on to the anaesthetist they are aware of it hun. But I wouldn't worry at all. It won't be a problem Smike
