That's the closest I could come to your s/l. There are blast cells, but I couldn't find that combined with anything like muco. There are platinum-based treatments, but I can't tell from your partial sentence whether it could be that.

Subject: It's a company based out of Louisville, KY

It is individually owned but has been in operation for years.  Has contracts all over the US.  Is US based.  IC.  I hesitate to give the name of the company because she is reorganizing under a different name.  I looked yesterday on the internet and she does not have a website up and going yet under the new name.  Thanks for the good feedback!  I like my job and enjoy working for them.  Gives me the opportunity to work from home, be a stay-at-home mom and homeschool my two children as well!  I think I have the best situation in the world!!!!

Subject: Based on the following paragraph written by

Vanderbilt University in relationship to Troubleshooting PICC problems, in particular; "My patient's arm is red, swollen, and/or painful."
A. How does the arm look in comparison to the arm without a PICC line.
B. If redness is involved, is it a red streak up the arm along the vein tract.
C. If swelling is involved, what is the difference in the girth of the two arms.

Your sound-alike brings to my mind: gorge; as engorged. Definition: gorge, glut; especially: to fill with blood to the point of congestion. Just an educated guess though. Good luck.

Subject: hyphens...gait is broad-based?

I am drawing brain farts with hyphens lately.  Just looked at Dr. Grammar.  Still no help.  I know that before a noun, two or more adjectives are hyphenated, as in broad-based gait.  But what about gait is broad-based. ? Are there new rules on hyphenation? Do we always hyphenate heel-to-shin and the like?

is definitely not obese. Weight is only 148 pounds. He says the s/l Tippin scale rating is 5.8 and that this man should not have survived. It's some kind of rating on the severity of a heart attack I think, but I can find absolutely nothing. Thanks for trying though!
