The OED allows three pronunciations: "meds'n, medisin and medis'n". So we're all right. :-)

There's always the possibility that most people on here are wrong .... but in fact no, you're both right - the OED says so! Meddysin and medsin are equally acceptable. :-)

^ What she said! :-)

I like pronunciation when it's regional dialect orientated "agayne, agayun,arrgen,uhgen, Aguyn, Again..."
What makes me cringe is corruptions like "Hospical' 'Arks' (for ask) and 'pacific' (specific) [shudder]
   I was reading a website yesterday for Mobile phone reviews and of 100 odd reviews the vast majority all started with "I brought my phone from Carphonewarhouse/phones for U / Vodaphone etc.." quite a few were 'braught'
confused
