Hey I'm just telling you what they told me. I even had to get them to write it down, because I was like .. my what? My tuba what? My tuber? Porosity?
So anyhow, it is the "greater tuberosity". On the diagram where it shows you the tubercle, it's some extrusion or .. Gads, I don't know how to describe it, the actual report uses terms like "lateral and something something aspects" .. it's completely over my head.

Anyhow, don't ask me what a tuberosity is. I'm no anatomyist.

So basically what you're telling me is, the doctors just made up the term on the spot just to see me try to wrack my brain trying to comprehend it. I KNEW IT! DANG IT!!!!

"Hee hee, this guy is totally hopped up on Entenox, let's see what we can get him to believe!! <snicker snicker> Yeah, you, um, fractured your seventh Boykersity of your lateral and anterior aspects of your boogaboogbabone. You're going to have to rest that for 17 weeks!! No trying to move it now!!"
