that is used to see the contrasts of the mouth and throat more clearly. Especially as this procedure started with a microlaryngoscope, which is used either in patients with narrow airways or to get a more clear picture, I would be more apt to say the doc said band endoscope.

it would seem that the question was asked because you asked so many questions in a row. That normally does not happen unless someone is doing homework or taking a test.
The poster was asking if she should
Subject: The poster was asking if she should
type verbatim. The doc is saying pussy and that is what she should type.
If you look in the dictionary, there is a definition for pussy which means "full of or resembling pus".
You can't say "no way is "pussy" correct. You are telling her to alter the sentence and she said it is a verbatim account. It is a word.
If it is not verbatim, then alter away but you better be careful if you do this a lot.
