"Shy" on the 4 byte set gets you nothing...
"Shy" on Version 2 comes up with ...
F1305 Shy-Drager syndrome
E2D20 Shyness of childhood/adolescence
This perhaps suggests that your practice is running on the 4 byte set?
However, on Version 2 the Read Code for Burn OS is "SHy"! I am not
familiar with how EMIS enters synonyms and codes, but perhaps you
entered the code rather than the synonym?
If that is the case, I am a bit puzzled why you have some, but not all
Version 2 codes... have you missed a Read Code upgrade or something?
Version 3 of course comes up trumps:
Ua14X Shy
F1305 Shy-Drager syndrome
