K-wires
Subject: K-wires

Does anyone know the correct way to transcribe K-wire sizes. Is it 0.045, .045, or 4.5? I have always used 0.045, but I have seen it written various ways.

Thank you in advance.

S/l sharp linging pains...sm
Subject: S/l sharp linging pains...sm

First she describes localized spots of sharp s/l  linging   pains that are random throughout the day.  They last only seconds.  She has felt them on the top of either foot, in a separate area of both of her thighs, her right low calf and her left lower back. 


I cannot figure this out.  It clearly starts with an "L" and I have tried every word I can think of but just cannot figure out what this could be. It is not lingering as the pain last only seconds.  TIA

This sounds, and is, for all intents and purposes, the word "cat's"  I have never heard it reference this way, although it does make sense.  Was wondering if anyone else had heard of it.  Thanks, and happy typing!
