Thanks - I was more curious about pronunciation of suffix as a rule for all meds ending with “mine”. I suppose it would be “mean” then.
Also, when some people come around after a long sedated hospital stay - isn’t there sometimes something called “hospital delirium” or the like? Where they hallucinate for awhile (e.g. doctors/hospital personnel are trying to kill them and/or general paranoia)?
I think I had hospital delirium once...lol
Had to stay there three days due to an ice storm...slept on a very uncomfortable roll-away bed in a storage room by the ER.
I saw a lot of confusion in older patients that had a TURP, that’s a transurethral-resection... a bit like a roto-rooting of the prostate...eeek
