over here in blighty they just tell us the risks before we sign.....
I’m in the UK, I don’t remember about personal belongings, because it was a few years ago, but don’t worry, just leave them safe at home, in case they get lost or caught on something. I had a small rucksack with me, which I tripped over on the way into the operating room! Good luck with everything Xxx
Don’t worry they always say leave valuables at home , it’s the same here in the UK x
In France here, no jewellery, and sign that u accept risk
I've never done 1 of those for that before!!! Are they being over cautious? Or is it standard for USA when you have a sedative?
It's not for that reason at all. Anything metal can effect the machines, other personal stuff is probably because they don't want to be liable for any possible theft while you have your procedure
No jewelry is for your protection They’re not responsible, plus the machines contain radiation.
You won’t die for that🙄
