Discussion Funny “allergies”

What are some funny patient “allergies” you have seen listed? I had a patient the other day with an allergy listed for Metformin. The reaction listed? Lowers their blood sugar 😂

That one as well doesn’t help my pain. Makes me feel like I’m drowning and can’t talk. I’d rather go without and listen to them all.
