Actual conversation with my eye doctor earlier today:
Him: I'm going to prescribe you some cortisone drops.
Me: I have alpha-gal syndrome and need to be sure whatever you prescribe me is safe.
Him: Wait, alpha-gal is real?
Me: Yes.
Him: Have you seen an actual allergist for it?
Me: Yes.
Him: Ugh! If only Bill Gates hadn't caused it. I swear, every conspiracy theory I've ever believed is coming true.
Me: 🤔
Him: What about medications with eggs?
Me: Eggs come from birds. I just need to avoid mammalian ingredients.
Him: Because, you know, some people have issues with albumin in eggs.
Me: I don't have issues with eggs. Just four-legged creatures with fur.
Him: You know, you should probably wear an emergency alert bracelet listing all of the medications you can't have.
Me: Except that would be one heck of a bracelet, because there are thousands upon thousands of medications that contain mammal ingredients. If you could tell me what you're thinking of prescribing, I can look it up on Daily Meds or contact Pill Clarity.
Him: (Attempting to browse Pill Clarity while also entering the script) I'm going to leave notes for the pharmacist.
Me: Great! I can definitely work with them to find a safe option.
Him: And you need to be sure you confirm before you leave the pharmacy that the drops are safe.
Me: Yes, I know. I've been living with alpha-gal for five years. And, you may want to take this course.
