I told them they could fire me if they want but I wasn't going to willingly take a test that I knew caused me to have an allergic reaction, and they had failed to document it when informed and had witnessed both times it happened.

We settled one xray test and future years me certifying I had not been exposed. Given I'm not a front line caregiver it wasn't a big deal. This year (7 years after the above) they have now dropped the test for anyone not directly involved in patient care.

It shouldn't have taken all that effort and I"m shocked your previous doctor didn't record the issue.
