sitting once again in the doctor's surgery and not wanting to touch all those infected magazines i decided to turn over my shared care monitoring sheet and write down as many words a possible that I could make from "methotrexate" - i came up with 57 - though not sure if "erm" is actually a word. the things we do.

Hi Eve

I can't resist a challenge. Have pencil and paper in hand as I type but 57 sounds a lot of words to me.
