"He is here because he states his heart rate is irregular. He felt a little bit of wooziness from it due to the lightheadedness. We checked the hemoglobin which has dropped a little bit since the last visit to 12.8. MCV is 89. Normal platelets. Patient had s/l  lines in the summer. An antibiotic was called in for 21 days. Patient states it did not bother his stomach but it made his heart beat a little bit harder."

We're not on the beach.  We're here to support and try to help one another in our quest to be good transcriptionists.  End of story.  I bet the administrator e-mailed her and told her she is not supposed to ask test questions and does not need you tattling.  It doesn't matter where I stand, I just don't believe in being a squeaky wheel to get attention and be a brown-noser!  I may be wrong, but I don't believe we make gains that way.  Take care....

Those are the closest words to what he says (even though I clearly hear a 'T' sound), but I have no idea if those would go with a diganosis of cryptococcal meningitis.  It really sounds like he is saying de-ser-ti-a, but he is ESL.

Help with external fixator slang
Subject: Help with external fixator slang

On this account slang words are typed as dictated.  For external fixator he dictates ex-fix.  Is 'ex-fix' correct or should it be x-fix?  It has been suggested that it might XFIX, a brand name, but I have not been able to find anything to confirm it.


Thanks!
