Welcome to Sick Enough, the podcast about hospital doctors, hospital issues, and the health conditions we commonly encounter.
Are you allergic to penicillin? Tyler bets that you aren't!

In this episode, we discuss what constitutes a true allergy. We talk about the distinction between an allergy, an intolerance, and a side effect (or adverse effect).
