Ran across this site that collected a lot of funny and not-so-funny medical abbreviations and slang.

A word of advice: read the two paragraphs at the bottom of the page FIRST, to put the whole thing in context.

http://www.messybeast.com/dragonqueen/medical-acronyms.htm

It also includes some veterinary slang. (I really like "CSTO," Cat Smarter Than Owner.)

It seems to be a British site but there is also a lot of US slang.

Enjoy! (or not). I laughed really hard at some of it.
