 I would type:
 
 ...relatively severe, diffuse ...
 
 Typing in all caps is the equivalent of shouting.  It will make people not want to listen or read or help.  Just trying to give you a heads up.

 Orthopedic surgeon is doing I&D and wound exploration on a patient with a comminuted tibial fracture and his leg is all messed up. So, the doc says "Tom, Dick, and Harry are all intact." I figure he said this because he was too lazy to list off the various structures he was encountering but maybe he was referring to some specific anatomy?  ...you'll go faster that way if you don't have to stop and

 This happens to me often and at random.  Sometimes if I have my email up at the same time I'm working, if I close it, or exit the web entirely the problem may resolve.  Other times I've exited my word document and the problem resolves...sometimes not.  Sometimes I've had to reboot...sometimes the problem resolves and sometimes not.  It's still a mystery to me.
