High Airborne Cat Levels Lead to Long-Term Heimeral Inshigh Changes: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blinded Study

I am sure you are very jealous of Light Bright and me, because we get to type up lots of medical dictation at work. Of course medical dictation has its own vocabulary, replete with large words like polysensitization that you are sure the doctor just made up to sound smart, but sometimes they say things we can’t even begin to interpret. I was looking over some of LB’s work, and she had highlighted any words she didn’t understand. I was able to come up with something that made sense for most of them… and then there was this phrase: “long-term heimeral inshigh changes.” I am not sure what this might mean from a medical perspective. Looking at it linguistically, the first part appears to be of Germanic origin, while the second part looks more Celtic in derivation. Does this help? Not really.


Then of course there are the regular old mistakes, like when the doctor meant to say “airborne cat allergen levels,” but instead he said “airborne cat levels.” Did you imagine a bunch of paratrooper felines too? What do they think they are, Twinkies? Toque McToque says the level of airborne cat in her house has gotten so high that she is thinking of getting her younger cat a little helmet for his birthday. She should not take this problem too lightly. Four out of five doctors agree that high levels of airborne cat can lead to long-term heimeral inshigh changes, and who wants that? I mean, it’s one thing if your heimeral inshigh just changes for the short-term, or if your non-heimeral inshigh changes, and don’t even get me started on heimeral outshigh changes. But clearly there is something very significant about long-term heimeral inshigh changes. We just aren’t sure what it is yet.
