experience is, it lacks credibility especiall when you base it on YOUR experience. Who are you? How much experience do you actually have? What kind of experience do you have? How many diabetic patients have you encountered in your years of experience?

Subject: No, doc was referring to ability to eat
The previous sentence had talked about having a swallow study and having dysphagia, so I am sure the word did not refer to word-finding or memory impairment. Doc very clearly stated "pneumestic" -- I just cannot find anything that closely resembles that word, and I sure don't know where QA got it from.

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.)
