Do you have any medical history? “No” [they did]

Me: “do you have any medical history?”
Patient (50s): “no”
Me: “why do you take Simvastatin?”
Patient: “my LDL is a bit high, they started me on that after my hemorrhagic stroke last October.”
Me: “October 2025?”
“Yes.”
“That counts.”

What’s your “no medical history” [false] story?
