Medicine loves acronyms and you will encounter many on your journey. Some are good eg NED and some you don't wnat to see in your file eg GOMER (get out of my examination room- refering to people that refuse to stop coming back).
No question on this board is silly or asked too often. All of us didn't know what we know now when we first came here and many times, in our frantic attempts to get answers, we just didn't read previous posts which in many cases, addressed our questions already.
That's what we are all here for. Don't ever feel a questions is silly. Ask away!!!!

Ramona -
By the way.. the feminine form of the word is "NED-ette". You won't be a NED, (too macho, you understand), you'll be a NET-ette!

If your question is silly, then I'm SP..(Silly Putty) If it wasn't for CSN, we couldn't educate our doctors Bud
