Maybe slightly off topic, but I went and saw my own GP last week to get something fozen off. He uses MDW 2 and intending to upgrade to 3
There was a new disease and some sort of request in my notes - not belonging to me!!!! He commented on 'don't know how that got there -- dosn't belong to you' and did look genuinely puzzled. I can recall previous debates on various lists about data accuracy with MD 2. Wonder if BP has ever caused any(yet) as everyone seems enthusiastic about it.
