Colleague: " So pulmonary tuburculosis is localised to the lungs, but if the granuloma fails due to immuno-suppression you can get invasion in to the blood, which is military TB."
Myself: "Military TB?"
Colleague: "Yeah, military TB."
Myself " Do you mean Miliary TB?
Colleague "What? Miliary? I've been reading that as military all week!"
Other colleague "Me too."
Oh dear! Having it as military would make more sense though...

ReplyDeleteSoon though... Soon!
