Do your friends encourage you to smoke
Question
07/17/22 1:25 AM MDT

What will you say if your friends ask you to smoke again

Finding:

(Found)
Pro Tip: While general questions about allergies may elicit important information, the patient may not spontaneously report all allergies. For example, medication allergies may be overlooked by the patient because he or she considers adverse reactions to medications separate from more common allergies, such as hay fever or allergic reactions to animal dander. In addition, if the patient experienced an allergic reaction to medication long ago, he or she may not immediately recall it.

Example Question:
Do you have any food allergies?
Finding:
Denies known environmental allergies
(Found)
Pro Tip: While general questions about allergies may elicit important information, the patient may not spontaneously report all allergies.
