Ever wonder about those medical abbreviations?

Medical-ese can be impossible to understand at the best of times – but when you’re not feeling well, it’s not only difficult to understand, it’s frustrating and can be dangerous.

I was going to put together a list of the most common abbreviations you may come across, but then I found that one of my favorite bloggers has already done that.  I should send her flowers or something for making my job easier!

So, if you’ve ever wondered what Bx, rx, and dx mean, or what QoL and NSAIDs are, the check out this list of abbreviations over at But You Don’t Look Sick,com.
