I have done more of this docs files that ANYONE elses... and I have never heard her say this before... "one q. day to p.a.p." she says it twice on two different meds.  She is always VERY easy to understand.  It's definitely not b.i.d. or t.i.d.  Does p.a.p. or t.a.p. exist?  I have googled all over the place and even had another MT listen to the file.  (please don't rake me over the coals... I'm a newbie - haha)


Help? Please? Thank you.
