Has anyone else noticed an upsurge in ethylene glycol
poisonings? We have had one a week in the last four weeks here at Heartlands
compared to none I can remember previously. Obviously recent news stories may
have precipitated some people thinking of this. All four patients appeared to
have decided to take it themselves.
