Since they start out on the left side,
Subject: Since they start out on the left side,

I don't think this is logical. They start at the rectum, then meet the sigmoid (left colon), next transverse, then right (descending) colon, then cecum last.

But I'd be more comfortable with the term rigid sigmoidoscope than colonoscope. No way can a rigid instrument get all the way around, right?

With nystagmus, the eyeball might "jump." It beats from side to side, or middle to side, etc.
Subject: With nystagmus, the eyeball might "jump." It beats from side to side, or middle to side, etc. sm

Doubt antistigmatic--not a word. Astigmatism is something entirely different. There is no reference in Stedman's ophth for antistigmatic, but do believe they mean nystagmus for "eyes jump." Can you leave a blank? The author apparently doesn't know the correct word to use. Maybe the context of the sentence will help you.

Given the patient’s subjective complaints, findings on physical exam and failure with conservative treatment, surgical intervention was recommended. This comes in the form of excision of the bony fragment with 1) s/l capsular release and possible 2) s/l anchor repair versus pinning of the right thumb.
