Hello all. 


Thanks in advance if you can help me.


I have a neurologist who says "near response" when referring to eyes.  Is it near?  Neer?  neer? 


Also, is there a Neer's test in orthopedics? 


I'm confused!!

On exam, it does appear that the pain has shifted some from the lateral shoulder area up into the trapezius in the main belly. There is a trigger point right in the main belly that recreates almost all of her symptoms.

    stats page ?
    Subject: stats page ?

    Maybe I'm senile or something, but until the new PP began, I would look up stats as "current month," which worked fine.  Now when I try to enter the last 2-3 days, I always end up adjusting one of the dates.  Even more frustrating is selecting "16th to end of month," and it brings up November! 


    I could swear that sometime in the past I figured this out.  It's petty but annoying.


    Thanks!
