Incomprehensibly Fabulous

I sympathize with not knowing what to say. Communication with doctors is a funny thing. Some years ago, I used to prepare for visits to a doctor by looking up my symptoms online and then mimicking the vocabulary on the sites listing ailments that seemed most like mine. This was so that I could rely on their jargon instead of trying to come up with elaborately accurate descriptions that only seemed to confuse the doctor... And it's really true that doctors have jargon. Words like "sharp", "dull", and "tender" are common words, but when doctors use them, they expect patients to hear a particular meaning, even though they do not often explain that meaning.
