Help! This is a diagnostic report and does not include past medical sm - broke


Posted: Feb 28, 2015

history or any actual conditions.  Medication s/l Imodium lac D??? Possible that it is Imodium, s/l lac D (or maybe not Imodium at all and it is one word?) omeprozole is in list so he does have stomach issues.  I'm stumped.  Extremely fast dictator!!!

I think - see msg

[ In Reply To ..]
He might be tripping up and saying Imodium A-D. Or Imodium dash A-D. (He should be saying hyphen, but they all say dash instead.)

Please Include Sentence The Word Was Used In (sm)
