IF board abbreviations?

Is there somewhere to learn the abbreviations specifically to this board?  For example, what are stims? I'm waiting for a confirmation on when our first RE appt will be, so I'm kind of in the dark until then. I know where the regular glossary is and it's definitely helpful.

stims is an abbreviation for stimulation drugs as in the ovulation stimulation

I have a glossary on my blog on the right hand side (link in my siggy) if that'd help...I think its pretty all inclusive :)
