message: Original text: "Petechiae in children can occur with viral infections. In such cases, they do not necessarily signify something serious. However, potentially serious illnesses, such as meningococcemia can cause death within 48 hours of infection and therefore, their presence should not be ignored." It was in the section on Neisseria.

message: Hi @Doc James, I'm confused by the wording "platelets of 3" used on this page. Is it referring to platelet count? If so, what's the unit being used? I just added a  to that effect. Digging a little deeper, I found the same verbiage used on the original image you uploaded to Wikimedia as well as on the page for ITP and another image used there. Based on that page, I'm guessing the unit is count per nanolitre.

message: Hi all, I am considering deleting this entire section. The first 2 bullet points are referring to phantom limb sensation, not phantom pain. The second 2 bullet points are expanding upon the type of pain a person may experience, which has already been described. 
Thoughts?
=== Types[edit] ===
There are various types of sensations that may be felt:
* Sensations related to the phantom limb's posture, length and volume e.g. feeling that the phantom limb is behaving just like a normal limb like sitting with the knee bent or feeling that the phantom limb is as heavy as the other limb. Sometimes, an amputee will experience a sensation called telescoping, the feeling that the phantom limb is gradually shortening over time.
* Sensations of movement (e.g. feeling that the phantom foot is moving).
* Sensations of touch, temperature, pressure and itchiness. Many amputees report of feeling heat, tingling, itchiness, and pain.
* In less severe cases where small digits are amputated, the sensation can be described as a tingling feeling as opposed to a painful sensation.

Talk:Polydipsia

message: "One who drinks nothing but coffee or soda can be easily misdiagnosed by a medical professional as psychogenic polydipsia, as they may be unaware they are consuming diuretics."
-I think this is a myth, as contrary to popular belief coffee is not a diuretic particularly, (at least, it doesn't cause dehydration.)  Also the person would have to drink massive amounts for it to have any different results than those from drinking large quantities of water.  The reason I know coffee is not a diuretic, and soda definitely isn't, is that those with kidney problems are not told to restrict it due to any dehydrating effect, like they are told to avoid alcohol.

replies: text: According to caffeine it is a mild diuretic (according to both articles) and I've seen various sources which recommend against drinking caffenated beverages if dehydrated. Obviously decaffinated coffee and uncaffinated soft drinks are not a concern in relation to caffeine. You're probably right it's a small effect, unless perhaps you're having energy drinks all the time in which case you're liable to have problems due to the various other stuff anyway Nil Einne (talk) 17:51, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

message: * Without question ask any UK doctor and they will use the term Port-A-Cath as the generic term (likewise venflon, hoover meaning vaccum cleaner, kleenex for tissue). That said, I'm not sure when wikipedia uses such real-world generic naming (Genericized trademark), vs giving a good redirect to the correct non-brand term. (in above examples Kleenex article notes has become a genericized trademark, Venflon is a redirect to Cannula, and Hoover is a disambiguation page).

Talk:Pre-registration house officer

message: The pay scheme for pre-registration House Officers in the National Health Services of the UK used to allow for annual progression over three years. More than two six-month posts might be required if one was not completed satisfactorily, or the holder had to leave due to illness or pregnancy. A few non-UK graduates were trapped in this way at the pre-registration stage when the regulations changed, so that a new written, oral and clinical examination was required before they could progress to full registration, though it had not been required when they were granted provisional registration. NRPanikker (talk) 11:10, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Extended Pre-registration Period 

message: The National Health Services of the UK used to have a small number of post-registration house officer posts. These had lower pay than the otherwise identical senior house officer posts, and were to be found in famous teaching hospitals where there was no shortage of applicants: e.g. the Simpson Memorial Maternity Pavilion of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. However, if the doctor had already held a senior house officer post they remained on that pay scale. NRPanikker (talk) 11:20, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Post-registration House Officer 

message: At present the main article states that pre-registration house officers were the lowest grade of medical life at the commencement of the National Health Service in 1948. I am sure that "provisional registration" was introduced to the UK by the Medical Act of 1956, but it may have taken a year or so to be implemented. 
Making pre-registration appointments compulsory meant more jobs had to be created to accommodate the whole output of the medical schools, minus the number who emigrated immediately.
Before that, new graduates made a single payment to be registered for life soon after graduation, and house officer appointments were not compulsory: but without having held one or two their options were more limited. 
House Officers as such were to be found in hospitals for much of the nineteenth century, and possibly earlier, in European countries. Americans tend to believe that they, and residency training, were invented by William Osler. NRPanikker (talk) 15:44, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Primary polydipsia

message: While psychogenic polydipsia is usually not seen outside the population of those with serious mental disorders, it may occasionally be found among others in the absence of psychosis, although there is no extant research to document this other than anecdotal observations. Such persons typically prefer to possess bottled water that is ice cold, consume water and other fluids at excessive levels, and may be falsely diagnosed as suffering from diabetes insipidus, since the chronic ingestion of excessive water can produce symptoms and diagnostic results that mimic mild diabetes insipidus.
Can the author provide a reference for this? It seems to me that diabetes insipidus is NOT something that can be misdiagnosed or is rarely FALSELY diagnosed.
=== Not Diagnosed - Neglected ===
My experience over twenty years of struggling to get my raging, unquenchable thirst diagnosed, is that doctors consistently regarded it as due to diabetes, and so ordered fasting blood sugar tests.  I protested that it could not possibly be diabetes, as I would already be dead, and that my sugar tests were invariably normal.
When their tests did indeed turn up normal blood sugar, the doctors lost all interest in diagnosing my condition.  Note that while doctors are always trained in science, it is uncommon for them to actually be scientists.
