Here is a good website that I use for Lab values:
http://www.mtworld.com/tools_resources/lab_values.html
Here is another website that can help you with abbreviations. You can either put in the abbreviation and it will give you all the options for that abbrevation. Or you can put in the definition and it will show you the correct abbreviation:

Drug Names - Websites???
Subject: Drug Names - Websites???
 I hope you all can help! I am in search of a good website to distinguish drug names. I am looking specifically to be able to distinguish brand names from generic and am interested in which should be capitalized, and which not? Any good sites out there that aren't all lists with all drug names starting in caps even though they shouldn't be?

NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain
Subject: NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain
the meaning in an ADDENDUM.
How do you know what the doctor meant? GOOD GRIEF, are you the know-it-all (hyphens must be put here, as it is used as a noun!) on this board? Get over yourself!
Who understands what it means without an explanation?
The MOST obvious is apparently like I understood it:
5 packs in 1 year.
Maybe the doctor really meant this, 5 packs per year, so essentially a nonsmoker.
GOOD GRIEF, get over yourself!
gram-negative, lactose-negative rods is correct. I found a couple of interesting websites SM
Subject: gram-negative, lactose-negative rods is correct. I found a couple of interesting websites SM
after doing a google search for gram-negative, lactose-negative rods. Basically testing organisms to see if they ferment lactose (positive) or not (negative).
Also, just FYI, gram-negative is not capitalized.
Probably too late, I'm sure. Better late than never, I guess.

good/well
Subject: good/well
According to Webster's, good as an adjective and standard after verbs like "feel" and "taste". It goes on to say that both "good" and "well" are used to express good health, but "I feel good" may connote good spirits in addition to good health. I was always taught in English class that one feels "good," not well. If you feel well, your fingers are working correctly. Since it says that good and well are both used to express health, perhaps you can take your choice. I would write that he looks good.
