"Johnny" as slang for a hospital gown, that is. He said yes, he had, and he was pretty sure it's British slang. I told him what I'd found, which was that it can also be slang for a condom, and he too wondered just exactly what was REALLY going on in that hospital bed.... :)

Any help is appreciated. :)

Diovan HCT
Subject: Diovan HCT

How does one go about transcribing Diovan HCT when the drug is a combination of valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide.  Appendix B of the BOS states that the meaning of HCT is hydrocortisone and HCTZ is hydrochlorothiazide and to spell out both HCT and HCTZ.  I trust this is the correct board to ask this question.  I'm really getting myself confused with this particular drug combination!  in advance!

This is not an account where I have any editorial leeway.  The doctor states, "She was evaluated by an orthopedist, who kind of poo-poo'ed the patient's complaints and apparently did not do an x-ray exam."


Opinions on how to spell "poo-poo'ed?"  


Thanks!
