Subject: written in my book

Granted I bought this book used, but the last owner wrote in "arcade of Frosche" (tunnel in the arm). I can't find anything on the Henry one though, sorry. I do try to find another reference if they were not written in by me, but I don't have one. :)

Your Google references are all written by a lay sm
Subject: Your Google references are all written by a lay sm

person, even one person from a Cannabis site! The MRI info was probably keyed in by a lay person also. There no reference for "brachioplexy" in any Stedman's reference, any Dorland's reference, Taber's or even in the rxlist.
Did you notice the other misspellings in the Google listings?

Brachioplexy makes no sense. It's brachial plexus, brachial plexopathy.

Best not to be facetious with an MT with over 30 years' experience, with a 99-100% QA rating at all times.

You still didn't define "brachioplexy" which is what I asked.

No wonder we're losing our work to a foreign country.
