Not State or Country Specific - Basic Information you should research prior to F2F

B2G, I'm a tad bit confused.

The Physician's Desktop Reference or PDR as referenced is a huge book that is a list of all medicines, chemical properties, rx'ing info, side effects, etc.,  I have one.  

I think you may have published the title of this book by mistake over another.  Also it is no longer available to the non-licensed public.  It is not used for diagnosing ailments.

"The Physicians' Desk Reference is a commercially published compilation of manufacturers' prescribing information on prescription drugs, updated annually." (wiki)

Hi Harley,

You can purchase the PDR on Amazon, even the latest edition (I'm pretty sure they have a 2016 edition already out, although mine is the 2014 edition).  You're no doubt correct that I described it somewhat inadequately - It is sometimes used by small town or country doctors to assist with diagnosis (as the rx'ing info describes what condition the med is commonly prescribed for), but it certainly isn't the primary diagnostic tool - That would be the Doctor's exam itself.

Thanks for the edit - I'm often in desperate need of an editor, want to volunteer?

They just fired a 155mm flechette round at a 50x50 yard sheet of canvas strung between two telephone poles here at a distance of 200 meters, and the canvas disintegrated, along with the tops of the two telephone poles.  Need to work on their aim, it seems...
