What is a Cystometry/Cystometrogram (CMG)? Cystometry, or cystometrogram, with a pressure flow study is part of urodynamic testing (or UDS). These tests measure how well the bladder functions. They help diagnose problems related to urine control. These can be incontinence, difficulty emptying the bladder, overactive bladder, obstructions or frequent infections. Cystometry is used to measure how much urine the bladder can hold.
Tums - Expiration Date. I got a large package of Tums at a discount store for a really good price, but didn't notice the expiration date until later. They are marked June 2004 - I'd throw them out, but I remember my former boss who used to work at a pharmacy told me that asprin usually lasts much longer than its expiration date.
I have asked him about food expiration dates and this is what he says. Everything except honey has a shelf life. Expiration dates are also sell by dates that the grocery stores have to abide by. If properly stored, milk is good 5 days after the expiration date. Other items such as the Trader Joe's hummus you refer to have expiration dates on the very safe side of caution.
