Subject: Could it be no giving way or weakness? sm
This is something my ortho docs dictate a lot, usually in a series, i.e., no giving way, weakness, swelling, patellar pain, etc.
It could also be as you have it - give-way or giving-away weakness, just depending on the doc.

bilateral caloric weakness
Subject: bilateral caloric weakness
The caloric test is a part of the ENG. It reflects an attempt to discover the degree to which the vestibular system is responsive and also how symmetric the responses are, between left and right. It is a test of the lateral semicircular canals alone -- it does not assess vertical canal function or otolithic function. While not as good as we would like, the caloric test is the best that we have.

incorrect answers and alot of people are complaining about it. read all the posts below concerning your *answers*. those answers are definitely not helping anyone and if anyone should be kicked off, it should be you. I am not trying to be *rude*, but I AM concerned about the correctness of your answers and how it may affect patient lives. I am not the only one seeing this either and it is not a personal thing. Read the posts below...all of them. Perhaps you will understand.

most definitely the stages in Hep C are Roman numerals - ask any pathology department or lab department or any hepatologist.
Stage I is characterized by inflammation without the development of any scar tissue. Stage II features include inflammation with early scarring (fibrosis) in one zone (portal) of the liver. Stage III shows bridging of the fibrosis between adjacent portal tracts. Stage IV is cirrhosis (advanced scarring with loss of normal liver architecture). Stage of Disease Terminology Early stage, mild activity (1) Chronic Persistent Hepatitis C or Mild Chronic Active Hepatitis C Intermediate stage (II or III) Chronic Active Hepatitis C with Fibrosis Advanced stage (IV) Cirrhosis
