I can't tell what he is saying, reticular, verticular, ? radicular >>

Hopefully this will help: ventricular has to do with ventricles.. like in

the heart. reticular has to do with lymph nodes. radicular has to do with

anything spine/spinal cord related. (Dorlands says radicular is pertaining

to a root or radicle, which isn't much help, but for radiculitis is defined

as inflammation of the spinal nerve roots). Does that make it less like mud

and more like water? BTW, there is no " verticular " . You might hear

vertbral which has to do with vertebra/e.

Again a duh for me. One of the docs I transcribe for has a section in the PE

she calls " Lymphoreticular " , and she lists the lymph nodes there.. so I guess

that's why I " assumed " it was lymph nodes. Thanks for that definition.. I

learned something

That is what we are all here for---to point each other in the right

direction! Don't forget about (Yoshimoto's/Hashimoto's)!! That was a big
