<p>Doing a major clean out – is there any reason to keep a kid’s old sleep study EEG disk (showing she did not have epilepsy) or x-rays of a bone that was broken and surgically pinned (with a pin that was later removed) years ago?</p>
<p>I can’t think of a good reason… but can you scan them and keep an electronic copy, just in case?</p>
<p>I recently had to produce a document from almost 20 years ago. Thank goodness I scanned a lot of stuff prior to burning it, and the document was in that folder. Phew.</p>
<p>It’s part of her medical history, I would definitely keep them.</p>
<p>Keep it. you never know when you’ll need it as a baseline to compare to a future situation. As for the xray, keep it as you may also need it for comparison’s sake…</p>
<p>I wouldn’t ever get rid of something that was part of a medical history.</p>
