As many of you don't know(none of you most likely since no one is reading this)I am an HIT major. That's Health Information Technician. This means that I have to take terminology classes. So instead of just me being tortured by the insanity of medical nomenclature I will submit a word every day or so. Here's number one:
Tetany: a condition affecting nerves, causing muscle spasms as a result of low amounts of calcium in the blood due to a deficiency of the parathyroid hormone.

I am glad that I now know the definition of Tetany. With out you I would have never known what was wrong with me when I had low amounts of calcium in my blood due to my defective and/or deficient hormones.
Also, I would like you know that I had to type the word "musaturo" in order to post this post.
