I figured this out because my mom was gravida 4, 2-2-1-2: First pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage, second full term, third premature twins who did not survive, fourth full term.

a drug that sounds like Celexa- but isn't (sm)
Subject: a drug that sounds like Celexa- but isn't (sm)
In current med list, the doctor states what sounds like "Celexa 200 mg daily" Since the doc already listed Celexa 20 mg daily earlier in the list, I would guess that she's not just misreading the 20 mg into 200... But my brain is so stuck on that it sounds like Celexa (even though I know it's not) that I can't hear anything else.
If it helps any, patient has GERD, PTSD, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, glucose intolerance, and hypertension.

Upon further research, I found that a lipoma could be found on routine CT or MRI without having any symptoms. So lipoma it is. Thanks very much. (On careful listening again, he's pronouncing it lapalma)

EXTREMITIES: Strength is 5/5, normal motor strength in lower extremities including proximally and distally. Tone is normal. No cogwheeling. Deep tendon reflexes are equal. ("blanchers") are down going bilaterally. Coordination is slow but intact from finger to nose, bilaterally. She has no pronator drift; however, her left arm bobs quite a lot on out-stretched hands. Sensation is decreased on the right, especially on the new foot and hands, as well. Romberg is not even testable because she cannot stand straight with her eyes open much less closed.
