"These are sentences exactly as typed by medical secretaries in NHS Greater Glasgow"

It's not just Glasgow - I've seen this, and similar, lists attributed to many hospitals in the UK - US and European countries.
Seems there a bloody epidemic we don't know about.
Mind you it's not unusual to come out of hospital with a medical condition you never had when you went it.:-) ;-)
