Revised Sept. 22, 1997

This is a collection of medical stuff I have created for my HP200LX palmtop.  I am a Family Practictioner but the topics include Internal Med, OB, & Peds.  Each type of file has an accompanying text file to describe it (ie one file for Lotus spread sheets, one file for Calculator equations etc).  Feel free to delete the descriptions when you no longer need them.  In addition to the enclosed files, I use several information files downloaded from the Compuserve HPHand forum and recommend anyone who hasn't investigated these files to do so.

File list, all of these files should be part of this package:

READ_ME  TXT	This file, general description of contents
MEDICAL  EQN	HP CALC equation file
EQN      TXT	description of equations in medical.eqn
00000000 WK1	blank spreadsheet (see description file)

COPYRIGHT & DISCLAIMER:  This package is distributed as Freeware.  Feel free to pass the whole collection on to others.  While this is NOT shareware, I am perfectly willing to accept any cash donations you feel moved to send.  I have tried to make sure everything is accurate, but I take no responsibility for any results of the use of this information.

I am a Family Practice physician in Liberty, Missouri.  I purchased a 1 Meg HP95 as an Intern and later upgraded to a 2 Meg 100LX.  Currently, I have a 200LX with memory expanded to 8 Meg and the processor speed doubled.  I would appreciate hearing questions or comments about these files.  Also, if anyone else has some useful stuff on his/her own Palmtop, I would love a description and/or copy.
