"Loved your suggestions for refusing Versed, but was wondering if the "red" ink copies well ? And can they make a copy right then to give to the patient instead of requesting later ? Also, someone else suggested that the patient also makes a note on the forms: "If any amount of Versed/midazolam is given at any time, the consent for treatment is immediately withdrawn." (In case they claim later it was a mistake, but they had to continue...)" Good suggestions!Never Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00809517208101930723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536445998093886588.post-80319411877158573892011-01-06T09:18:12.266-08:002011-01-06T09:18:12.266-08:00Yes M that would be fine except that with Versed t...Yes M that would be fine except that with Versed there is no way to be vigilant. You can't even protect the contents of your memory from the prying of medical providers while under the influence. Even if you were aware as I was, there is nothing you can do. The coordination, anti conflict properties and the knocking out of the patients censorship of their thoughts is part and parcel of Versed. If you say that you remember they will say some very nasty things about you and argue that it didn't really happen! I had to cite very specific memories and quote the hateful humiliating things that my CRNA said to and about me before they sort of took me seriously! Conversely, they will say that you were lucid and that you GAVE THEM PERMISSION to do exactly what you told them not to prior to the sneak attack with Versed. They had nothing but contempt for me because I am "just a truck driver." My trust and respect for the medical community is shattered. Subsequent to my debacle my thoughts and impressions have been substantiated by the medical community themselves. The only thing I can think to do is INSIST that I be present. I can scrub and I have experience with my own surgeries while awake and my courses in pre-vet med. If that isn't possible then I will have my step father the Dr. stand in. He's in his eighties, but he is still in practice!Never Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00809517208101930723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536445998093886588.post-57990758714560274942011-01-03T15:43:08.423-08:002011-01-03T15:43:08.423-08:00You tell your daughter that there are bad people e...You tell your daughter that there are bad people everywhere doing everything and to be vigilant.
