Subject: I hate to beat a dead horse, but...

I have searched MTStars and can't find my answer.  I have posted this question before and do not get a reply.  I promise this will be my last attempt to find this answer.  I know how to use follow up and follow-up, BUT many people are using followup per BOS.  I can't find followup as a word in any dictionary.  Can someone please tell me where this is found BESIDES BOS?  Thanks in advance.  We are possibly putting in a quality check and I want to make sure I have it correct before then.  Thank you!
hate to beat a dead horse on ileal conduit
Subject: hate to beat a dead horse on ileal conduit

Does anyone have a GI/GU book that lists ileoconduit?  My QA does not like to be proved wrong.  She took a large deduction for my putting ileal conduit.  I am sending a QA review to have it looked at again, but she always comes up with a reference book from somewhere that has her word listed, so I'm just trying to save myself all the headache of submitting a QA review to find out it is listed somewhere ileoconduit.

Can anyone tell me if I have the form of the word malleoli correct in this sentence.  Should it be malleoli or malleolus in this sentence.  The doc is saying malleoli, but it sounds funny to me.  Here is the sentence:


She has mild edema to the left ankle with mild tenderness over the bilateral malleoli, a little more prominent over the lateral malleoli, just anterior. 


TIA

Subject: Happy Almost Birthday! I'm brave enough...got you beat...sm

I reached the half-century point last March; been in this profession since I was 17! (that's *33 years* if you don't want to do the math)...I've worked for USA services, hospitals, doctor offices; been an MTSO, corporate management, account manager...onsite, offsite, you name it...been through every specialty, every accent, every change (remember WP5.1?), every pay cut....! and this board keeps me sane while I search for a new career that values my experience and knowledge as globalism and technology redefine our industry...so I may be old and set, but I refuse to be left behind! =)
