One unclear word! *** COMPLETED WITH THANKS ***
« on: Wednesday 03 January 18 10:03 GMT (UK) »
Hi there

I'm stumped with just one word on the attached segment of a death registration  :-[

Line 5 after "under pentothal & ....."

Any suggestions?

Just searched for eulissin and it seems it was a muscle relaxant.  So I think it definitely is eulissin.

The letters are quite clear, except for the first one which at first glance I thought was a "c" - option 2, was "e", which google confirmed as a "thing", but you just beat me to it by a whisker or two.  ;)  :)

Thanks Rhododendron and Ruskie

Problem solved.  A word I'd never come across - even after 22 years in the RAF Medical Branch  :-[
