I am a nurse. I also have OCD, specifically involving fear of getting hepatitis C. I was drawing blood from a comatose patient and a stream of blood came out and hit the sheets. I immediately was checking fro blood on me. Eyes, OK. Mouth, nothing. Nose? Nose? Did some blood go in my nose? Is feeling in my nose from normal properties or did a drop of blood fly in there? No blood on face noted after checking in mirror. Is patient a likely Hep C candidiate? She's a 77 yr old nursing home patient with breathing problems on the ventilator. But wait, history of schizophrenia? Would that predispose her to IV drug use and HEP C? She is a divorced mother...maybe not...back and forth...fear, 1 week has gone by. I can't shake the thought. OCD or real worry? I'm thinking it's OCD but there's always that worry that it is legitimate. If I would report it it would be like " well I'm not sure anything has gone in my nose, just maybe"...I don't think that warrants a report to test the patient but it still keeps on bothering me.
