In my case, I think the doctor says, "she has a Rx here for . . ." I was going to post a question about Ricker. Then I saw you post, which gave me the idea. Could you doctor me saying, "Rx for injection. . ."? (Assuming Rx is pronounced like rix.)

Subject: absence seizure is pronounced ab-sonz? sm
absence seizure
a seizure characterized by impaired awareness of interaction with, or memory of, ongoing events external or internal to the person; may comprise the following elements: mental confusion, diminished awareness of environment, inability to respond to internal or external stimuli, and amnesia. (The term absence was first used by Louis-Florentin Calmeil (1798–1895) to introduce the concept of epileptic absence for the brief loss of consciousness or confusion seen in epileptic patients.)

Milton, no ulterior motive here. I'm also not a cynic, so perhaps it's best I just graciously back away from this board. You've already answered my question. This is not a board for the likes of executives. The information flying around is inaccurate, and that's the way it will remain. Since most people are smart enough to go to the source when seeking verifiable info, I'll trust the general population to be sensible enough to contact the source if and when in doubt about what they're reading. Sorry to have disturbed you.
