   I've emailed the administrator of the program a few times re. reapplying but have not heard anything back yet. I think the instructor(s) are overwhelmed by the amount of students that are failing the course right now. From what I understand, the fa...

   A while back, I administered something called a "Muse" (if I recall correctly). This was a penile suppository. The pt. had neuropathy and kept developing infections in and around the penis because he had difficulty with the foreskin (retracting and...
