i LABA (leave and breathe acronyms)

After close to 6 years of inoculation with medical jargon, it's become this virus that invades and hijacks my communication with non-medical or not so medical personnel.

I was talking to MOAO about a friend of mine who had IBS. This was how the conversation panned out:

MOAO: What is IBS?

Me: Oh... Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

MOAO: I also SAL.

Me: huh???

MOAO: Shit A Lot

Me: LOL! So you must be FOS. Full Of Shit.

*MOAO & Me dissolving into laughter*

This is what keeps me sane and happy.

Just as a small aside, FOS happens to stand for Fanny On a Stick, an endearing name used by many medical professionals in various hospitals for an airway device otherwise known as the laryngeal mask. You have to see it to understand why it's called the FOS.
