QR codes
« on: October 06, 2025, 04:48:57 PM »

Went to look at QR code today on my breast screening invite letter before attending today.

QR too small to photo on my phone to get a reaction but there was a website address written as well for info.

Was just checking about using deodorant this morning as previous invite letters have had printed advice about not using deodorant before the screening.

Made me wonder how many now bother with the QR code or even look at the website before attending.

Not using deodorant or talcum powder
seems somewhat essential. Why not print it on the invite still ?

I had no idea this was the case. It's never been written about or mentioned in any discussion I've had about mammograms. For sure, it should be printed on the invitation letter if it can affect the scan findings.

Didn't bother nurses there with it but i will follow it up.
Their small QR code didn't work for me.

I don't readily embrace technology.

Keep near the entrance as its pitch black & might have bears in the interior.

That's where the 1st Cave Man was found?  Never mind bears, U can smell those: it's spiders, bats and other creepies and of course, this is where fears stem from!

My daughter went to Romania with her boyfriend to visit his grandparents, when they went on a chairlift they saw some bears it was amazing. They had to watch a lamb being ‘prepared’ from life to freezer, herd pullets ( chickens) at the farm as well. Quite a working holiday.😵‍💫 Not too far from Transylvania either🧛, he he.
