Subject: Silly ?

I feel silly asking this spelling of a non-medical word, s/l rehesitant is the word and I have noone to turn to right now to ask, so any clues?  I can pronounce it but cannot spell the darn thing.  The patient is resident or rehesitant to surgery. 


Thanks!

Subject: Here's my silly way of differentiating the two: sm

principle is belief--associating le with belief (same sound)

I have been transcribing for this doctor for some time now, and I swear he is saying


Hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg S/L in-cake.


He has never used this term before, and I cannot figure out if it is an abbrev. for something or what. He never says intake, and he lists 9 other medications in this reports that does not say this. Any help appreciated..maybe I am just hungry lol

Subject: not stupid

Don't worry about it, have had many days like that, and I have been doing this 30+ years.   Yesterday I could not get anything right.  Happens to us all, and it does make sense later.  I have looked at a lot of these word-help emails, and there are several that I had no clue on but always good to learn new things even at my old age.
