2nd day and feeling very stupid
Subject: 2nd day and feeling very stupid
I'm sorry ahead of time. Yesterday was awful and today only seems worse :( This is probably so obvious but because I am getting anxious, I can not hear anything now! The doctor says "... coughing, which initially was thought to be nonproductive but now (s/l livid) some productive sputum." Any help would be so greatly appreciated, and please don't laugh too hard! I may hear and get my feelings hurt. LOL

...thank you so much, psa! How did I miss this? I have a 2007 Saunders pharm book (is 2007 considered old?) and it's not in there and I also googled unsuccessfully. Thanks again for this. I'm pencilling it into my Saunders.

and google is NOT the authority on when to use which word. You can find errors all over the internet and I don't consider google a research tool unless it takes me to a manufacturer web site so I can find a copyrighted spelling.
A good dictionary and solid reference materials are needed. Additionally, the OP did not say the client wanted it one way or another so your bringing that into the equation makes you look as though you are trying to justify what you do, and I really do not care what you do. You are only trying to deflect the direction of the discussion to one in which you _win_ and you try to make me _lose_. The people here who lose are the ones who still don't know the CORRECT usage of the 2 words.
I stand my ground. The OP still does not know definitively how to use these 2 words based on this thread. And you can huff and puff and try to blow my house down but you still don't _win_.

Subject: not stupid
Don't worry about it, have had many days like that, and I have been doing this 30+ years. Yesterday I could not get anything right. Happens to us all, and it does make sense later. I have looked at a lot of these word-help emails, and there are several that I had no clue on but always good to learn new things even at my old age.
