I can see that it may be beneficial for us to have a sight to go to in order to help us with the medical terms that come up on this forum...I hope the following helps!! Hugs, Teri

Thank you, Teri. This is something I can use. I don't know all the acronyms, and especially when they don't particularly pertain to me. But I think it's important to stay informed!

I'm just 'bumping' this up~so we can keep it up towards the top of the board...it may help make it easier to understand some of the other posts and threads if we all know the abbreviations...

Hugs, Teri :)
