Never mind the "megaly" word.  I figured out it is thyromegaly.  I still don't know the cream though.

anterior chain adenopathy?
Subject: anterior chain adenopathy?

The doc is stating "he has mild anterior chain adenopathy" ( it sounds like that!) but she does not give any headings for her PE --just rattles off comments for each one, so I am wondering where this goes. Any suggestions? What I have found so far may indicate NECK, but am not sure.


Thanks!

SL Dye in HEENT?

Since no QA, just do what you feel
Subject: Since no QA, just do what you feel

looks right and then they will let you know if it is right or wrong.

I would probably separate each by stating the problem is blah, blah, blah then paragraph the examination is blah, blah, etc.

I would not capitalize headings since they are office notes.

Make each problem standout somehow.

If they have no samples for you, then do it and let them get back to you.

Good Luck
Thanks so much. I feel much better about this now.
Subject: Thanks so much. I feel much better about this now.


Wow!! Feel sorry for you.
Subject: Wow!! Feel sorry for you.

No one from QA has EVER treated me that way. I have had a few less than desirables, but this one is shocking.

I can stand for the fact that people who have diabetes do not necessarily have hypertension. My father has diabetes and has had two MIs and does not have nor has he been treated for hypertension ever.

Plus, I have done QA and yeah, once in awhile a sound alike may seem way off to you because you may know the dictator so well, BUT I have never had anything come across that was "way off". I have always listened a couple of times to try to figure the word out before flagging it as I am sure 99% of us MTs do. Frankly, I would try to speak to her supervisor in the company if you have that option because if she is treating people that way, the company will lose their good MTs. I left a company of a nasty QA manager (apparently not this bad). I would NOT put up with that. It is abusive pure and simple
I feel like I should know this....
Subject: I feel like I should know this....

This is an ESL. I think she has said this before, but I cannot get a grip on it this time.

She was bleeding so much that she called 911 and the patient was taken to the ER. The ER controlled the bleeding and put a plastic **salizine** tape and sent her to see PCP today. According to her, she is not in pain at all but she was afraid when she took off the dressing it would bleed. Thanks!
