Correct spelling for Mae Thurner's Syndrome.  I am getting conflicting information when I Google, and nothing in the medical dictionaries.  Thanks in advance.

Your give away was spelling
Subject: Your give away was spelling

"breech" as you did.  A dead give away that an MT most likely wrote that message.  Muscle memory is hard to overcome.  You unwillingness to go private to show your true identity didn't bolster your claim of being genuine.  You were right about this not being a place for MTSO executives.  Most would likely post on the company board, not the word board where all the drama took place.  But, what do I know?

Subject: is the question the spelling? SM

Per the AAMT BOS it is preferred to use the spelling of of this word and other British/Canadian/Australian versions of words as they are spelled in the country for which you are transcribing them. So, that would be orthopedics here in the US.
