No but it wouldn't be the first time someone was dictating drunk. Happens more often than anyone would like to admit.

Type 1 requires insulin, type 2 does not - sm
that is the basic difference. Type 2 can be controlled by diet changes and/or medication (pills). My MIL has type 2 which runs in her family, no one is obese either. She controls it with diet and medication. Your dermatologist I think is wrong. Doesn't your husband know which type he has?
Drunk. ......
I don't drink, but today may be the day I start because this job is going to kill me.
She was either drunk or lost a bet - sm
what a total freak, what woman would shave her head unless she absolutely had too (like a bad attack of lice, which I highly doubt was her problem). It will take quite a few years to grow back long again, oh well, guess that is her problem (s).
I'm drunk enough now to tell you that you may have my dress,
but you will never have my hat!!!!!
So he's out drunk and with a gun. S/l a recipe for
disaster to me. 
Don't you get drunk quicker while in the air?
I thought that's why airplane bottles are so popular, though now with the fluid restriction, you have to buy their 5 dollar cocktails. I am sure he'd get over-toxic up in the thin air.
But, then again, rather have our friend here spend her money on getting a nice apartment or house and setting up than wasting the money on his airfare. Just get him drunk and wheel him to the local drunk-tank.
Sorry, just had to say it. But we are all with you here, and I say if you were rich, the plane idea ain't that bad! :)
sorry, "dictating." Maybe I am drunk! NM
.
That's funny - Can you imagine some drunk guy sm
trying to walk in those .  Sounds like one of us will be getting a report soon of a guy in the ER who busted his ankle while walking "Topless."
No, but I think some of the folks dicating are drunk. NM

"Fat, drunk and stoopid is no way to go through life, son."
tee hee
Her daddy is a loser drunk. See, parents
Poor girl!  That family is filled with depression and low IQ.  I hope it all works out for her.
Forget a drunk guy... me completely sober LOL

bull, he was not too drunk he has a girlfriend. See the writing on the wall. nm

Very tender and juicy. We call it Drunk Chicken
though, so you could search that term for other recipes & tips too.
Obviously you've never had a family member killed by a drunk driver.
Long ago? Time has nothing to do with it. The man has an alcohol problem and left the scene of a homicide. Sounds like you're ok with that. I'm not. It speaks volumes about his character.
I would type

MEDICATIONS: Zocor and Ambien.

OR

MEDICATIONS
1. Zocor
2. Ambien

And

DIAGNOSES: Hypertension and chronic heart failure.

OR

DIAGNOSES
1. Hypertension.
2. Chronic heart failure.


Depending on which looked better in relation to the rest of the report. But that's just me. :-)
Not my type either..
I do like the scruffier male type image - kind of like that actor who plays "House"
Always. I can't type without it. nm

I had to type it in...
the address bar but could not find the Pantene link to click on.
It's 3 a.m. to type or not to type

Need some ideas about insomnia.  Don't want to take those sleeping pills. I used to begin work at 3 a.m. and worked split.  But, recently changed to day because I found if I got a good night's sleep my line count and disposition was better.  Lucky to get day because it takes a lot of years usually to get it.  But, now I find myself up at 3 anyway and for the last 2 hours have been surfing the net, mostly here and e bay.  I know that if I typed some now I would be no good during the day and not get my usually good line count during the day that I usually get.  BTW: Today is my day off, but I still plan to work and obviously hyper because I can't sleep now.  Any suggestions on how to get off this overnight shift pattern? Been doing this insomnia overnight thing for about 2 years, and I like the quiet (3 kids and a husband) in the middle of the night, but worn out.


Please suggestions for an insomnia. And forget the warm milk, please YUK LOL. Thanks for your help. Maybe with your suggestions in a week or so I can get off this 3 a.m. pattern. TIA.


 


If you don't type why are you here?
Just leave!!!!!!
anybody out there ever type

What are the rules you apply to yourself for taking sedatives and drinking while at work?  Does happy hour ever start early? 


Wow, when I type
for a typing test (trying to get a job), I get so nervous I can barely type and practically pass out. Any tips on how NOT to do that.

I could never type 104 wpm anyway, but I type much worse when trying for a job. Gulp!
Well who is going to type MJ and FF?
That hospital was one of ours, so I told my DH that the docs will type it themselves as to not to get a leak out to the press.  Sad times, sad times.  I am in the Midwest now, not to worry about celebs.  Pretty interesting day it was in the land of transcription.  JMO. 
Ever have a day when you just cannot type
I had one of those days yesterday where I typed dyslexic all day and it's spilling over into today.  Man, this sucks.  Normally I never have more than one uncoordinated day every few months.  Argh.  It's frustrating! 
We have to type it if dictated. I do this..
MEDICATIONS INCLUDE:
1.

I didn't type this but...

During a report, this derm doctor who speaks in this odd monotone voice went on a diatribe (off the record) about a patient using something called "Boudreaux's Butt Paste."  He had never heard of it, and neither had I until his report.  The dude was HILARIOUS!  He went off on a tangent, talking into the mic as if he were talking to another person, asking what it must be like for someone to go up to the pharmacy counter and ask for butt paste, and why on earth were they using butt paste on their face...and oh it went on for a good couple of minutes!  I was actually laughing so hard I had tears down my face!  Months later I found a tube of it in the baby section of Target and was tempted to mail him a small tube just for giggles, but then I thought maybe that would get me into trouble, so I didn't. 


That was my most memorable and most fun report and I will never forget it.  The dude should do stand up comedy, he was THAT funny!


Good times


it was a *duh* type question. that's all. nm

But I am certainly horrified when I type
a report of an facial x-ray on a patient who has been punched in the face.

They do it on TV and the movies all the time, and it only results in bloody lip, lost tooth, bloody nose, or broken nose. The reality can be much worse and quite horrifying to think just a punch with a fist could do that kind of damage.
No. It's a personality type to try to fix
things. A fixer (a male trait that some women have) doesn't realize it when a person is just asking for sympathy, not actual help. They think that by coming up with a practical solution, in this case, an honest way for you to make some cash and everybody to enjoy a little pampering for a small price, she has helped solve your problem. She has no idea this would be offensive and hurtful to you. If you complain she will be shocked because she honestly thought you were asking for help.

I had to figure this out because I have this trait and it's really hard for me to tell if somebody wants help or just a pity party.


LOL!! You should try to learn to type with them ;-) nm

Why can't you type Restuvus here?
Obviously am I missing something?
LOL SO TRUE! That is so true. Especially if you type and type
and forget the catheter in that your boss sent you with the computer and company policies booklet. LOL.
What type of mixer do you have?
ty :)
Sorry! What type of machine do you have? :)
ty
smart type
I had someone tell me that Stedman's smart type was the way to go as far as spell checker and speed typing program. what do you use? and have you used it?
no clue what I was trying to type- sm
under influence of cold meds......think I was trying to type "I was born in 1965".
What type of shipping?
If the person ships it media mail for the book, it will take up to three weeks for you to receive it. Regardless, one week is not really long enough to file a complaint or start contacting the person. I have been doing business on ebay, buying and selling once in a while, and I know you cannot expect your items so soon...especially around Christmas.
if your ex is the type of person who would allow (sm)
an evil witch stepmother to deny his children things... and would not even bother to get his own child a Christmas present, why would you regret not staying married to him? If that is who he is, that is who he already was. If he cared about his children he would do better by them now. I think you did the right thing by divorcing him.
do you type with those nails??
your pup is freaking adorable i love all dogs :)

are you an MT? My nails are long but not that long! :)
What type of kitchen mop do you use?
I am really frustrated with my kitchen mop right now. I have a cermanic tile floor that has to be mopped at least once or twice a week (when I feel like it). I can't find a mop that I like and gets the floor clean. Just curious what type of floor you have and what kind of mop do you use?
How do you two type with nails?.....
I am always filing mine short so they don't get in the way.
It is so hard to type
when your Boxer constantly wants to "box" the foot pedal!!


What type of advice?
There are pros and cons to each. Upside of craigslist is that it's free, all the proceeds come to you, and usually people come and pick up the item(s). Downside is that you get your day interrupted with phone calls, strangers come to your house, and potential buyers limited to your geographical area.

Upside of ebay is that you post it and forget about it for a couple of days (assuming you have a clear, concise ad). Your item is for sale across the nation/world. On the downside, you pay ebay fees and paypal fees when you sell your item. You have to box it up and either take it to the post office or arrange shipping. You may be stuck selling something at a price you feel is less than it's worth. You also potentially have people not paying or backing out after winning and we you have to go through the whole procedure again.

I think it's a matter of weighing which factors are more important to you...convenience, larger potential audience, and whether the fees are worth it.
I used to type ER reports.
They were quite, um, interesting. Lots of strange occurrences that increased around the time of the full moon each month. I had one doctor trying to dictate a drunk/drugged patient with foreign object removal, but he couldn't stop giggling through the entire report. He even apologized for giggling.
what type of worker

You need either the converter box or a new TV that by law has to have digital in it.  I have a new TV and I scan the digital part of my TV.  I get maybe one station every few days, so obviously I have the capability otherwise I would not get any digital TV.  It is the reception as I live in a rural area.  I do have to get a roof top antenna.  I was wondering what type of worker does that?  When I look in the yellow pages, all it has is satellite and cable, nothing about antenna installers.  I was wondering can just a handy man that I would hire install one or do I have to get an electric contractor to do it.


It seems you are equating any type of housework
as a negative or belittling chore. Lots of high-power women CEOs who work from home as often as they can would even beg to differ with you. Obviously its something that is really on your heart. Why not pick up a copy of Working Mother? Really is a great eye-opener on being a successful professional female in our corporate world, with just as much respect and attention given to running a house as running your company. Its all in the mind of the beholder. Good luck to you. I have to go run and throw the clothes in the dryer.
This is very common for men after this type of surgery....sm
I would see this a lot when I worked for a group of cardiovascular surgeons. Make an appointment for your husband & yourself with his surgeon so that they can first off assure him that this is normal. Some hospitals have post-CABG support groups and if your hospital has this, go as that will help him. Men especially have a hard time post-CABG because the male ego is "I can do anything and won't get sick" and it crushes their ego to have their heart become diseased. Continue to try to get him involved in things without nagging. The doctor may also place him on an antidepressant short-term if they feel it is indicated. Good luck!
Be careful of what type of massage too!

I got my husband a massage for a gift once...what a disaster!  We knew nothing about them...I thought it would be relaxing.  NOT!  Apparently it was for something called a "deep tissue massage."  What the heck did we know--a massage is a massage.  We almost had to call the ambulance to get him off the table because the lady just totally messed up his back, even though on the "getting to know you sheet" I had specifically wrote down that he had degenerative disk disease.  So here was this poor grown man, in tears, extreme pain, and completely embarassed that he couldn't move.  The massage lady was freaking out saying she had never had anything like that happen to her.  The total kicker was no money was ever refunded to us, and we never even got a call at home to check on him.  I was just so preoccupied with getting him safely into our pickup truck with minimal embarassment to him and getting him home. 


Thinking back, he says he wouldn't have minded the whole ordeal at all if there was a "happy ending" to his massage, but alas, this was a "legit" place  


 Men.


Hmmm, could make some type of
shutters too like the white boards but have them open like the old fashioned shutters. thanks
I meant to type this - see inside
Don't go telling people they aren't "special enough" to enter heaven just because they were "good" people. Shame on you. That is NOT supportive to someone who has lost 2 family members so soon.
