yes, jan, getting informed consent sounds like a good idea. have you ever been present when a pt is "consented?" IME it's often a crock. Frequently the dr. asks the nurse to get the consent. Yea, right, I'll do the surgery too and collect the fee. p.s. thanks to all who responded to the herbs/pg question. I had posted twice, not out of frustration, just didn't see a response and the dr. was waiting for one. I now have some info and know where to start.
