Nope, I don't feel "LUCKY" to be treated like an imbicile by my company. Nope, No way.

I need some help fairly soon please. DH has
broken out in red blotches that are very itchy. He took some Benadryl to relieve the itching, but what could this be? Is it something he needs to see a dr for urgently? TIA
I need some help fairly soon. sm
There's a rash on my hiney (referred to hereafter as DH -- dear hiney). It's getting splotchy. Can you tell me what it is? Also, do you think it was something I caught or do you think it was something I ate?
Should I call somebody? Do you think I need to take DH to see a doctor?
I think this is going to be urgent fairly soon so please let me know. Thank you.
Fairly new mom
Things not to buy - When my son was born, we got 40-something blankets, 30-something burp cloths, and way too many 0-3 month outfits. While I was extremely grateful for all the gifts, I had to spend a lot of time exchanging the multiples. Amazingly, we had to exchange a lot of diapers, too, because the cheaper ones don't always work as well on little boys.
Things I loved were anything homemade, personalized, etc. Also, outfits, socks, and onesies in bigger sizes, 3-6 months and 6-9 months, were a lifesaver and money saver as he got bigger, which seemed to happen overnight. You can never go wrong with wipes, shampoo, and other essentials. My son is 1-1/2, and I have yet to buy any shampoo or lotion for him. 
I am fairly new at this,
and I have made the mistake of using palpations before. I know the correct term, but I just made a mistake. As soon as I see that mistake corrected, I realize I messed up.
I do not see how someone with 20 years of experience could be making those mistakes and think they are correct. I have known those proper terms for a long time now. I just cannot see how they would make it this long and never once be corrected on them.
Here's one fairly easy
I was once a "head on a silver platter" - Got a big square box top, bought some cheap fabric enough to drape over the box, cut a slit and a hole in the box top enough so it would fit over my head. Then I also cut the fabric to drape around the box and decorated my face up in white face paint with red lips to look like the blood had all drained out of my face. You can embellish it anyway you like. I made the platter out of a bid cheap silver tray like you get at Thanksgiving to put the turkey on and a I pasted plastic fruit around on the platter. The point is just to make your head from the shoulders up look like it has been cut off and put on a platter. Everyone liked it. I could email you a pic later if you would like. It was really fun.
Red splotches! Need help (fairly soon)! nm

I thought I was fairly good at them
got several that I absolutely could not understand 1/2 of what was being said. Made 100 lines in 3 hours!!!!
It's easy if you are already an MT, but you really need a fairly extensive...
knowledge of anatomy. CT scans, PET scans, MRIs... Knowing your anatomy really helps you catch mistakes or know that you're not making mistakes by typing the name of a body structure that isn't even near the area of that particular scan. At least where I work, if you make mistakes on x-rays the radiologists get REALLY TICKED! They read them all and when they find the smallest error they're on the phone to the transcription manager, and we hear about it. Doctors are making medical decisions based on the findings of these x-rays and scans, so you can't exactly be making errors. But, if you have a good medical transcription background, you can be trained pretty fast. I had never done them until recently but learned fast.
Me? I drive a fairly new car. so I'm not "carless." You? nm

Really!!! This is fairly common MT 'net community
can this go on?!!
Maybe my hospital is unique, but they require their MTs to be fairly

I don't think you could fairly penalize an MT for not understanding a word without (sm)
without also penalizing the dictator for not being able to speak the word.
Had a fairly difficult time adjusting but,
I believe it is doing my hands and wrists some good. The keys seem more difficult to depress than previous keyboard, and it sounds like a rattle trap (plus the p sticks), but other than ALL THAT, I think I like it.
I ask for a raise fairly often. The worse I can be told is no and sometime I have gotten a yes.
:+
I've been using Dragon fairly steadily
I have excellent results. Maybe one or two mistakes per page, if that much.
Any number of factors could be the reason for the problems you're having, starting with your soundcard, improper training, not dictating correctly, etc.
I would be proud if my records, with my name erased, could be used to help an MT be treated fairly.
:P
Oooh "help fairly soon!" Hello, William Shatner, it's Rescue 911!

this has been around for years - although handheld is fairly new - was juust a computer in each room

Starting pay is 6 cents a line, fairly good account stability.
I had lots of ESLs. Benefits are okay. They have a new, stricter QA policy in place with new compensation, hard to get a 98 or above as it is by the BOS. It was okay, but couldn't make any decent money. Need to be a super high producer.
Satellite users for MTing - it your connection fairly reliable- I cannot get DSL and about to give u

I am fairly new with my company and I tried the control Y one time, and it didn't work, so I thou
into the "global" normals, I will play with it again and give it a try. How long have you been doing transcription? Have you stayed with the same company for a long time? I worked at a clinic for 6 years, hospital for 8, and now this new national for 3 months.....I hate feeling new!
Exactly! Because you got familiar with VR....
It is difficult to switch from stRaight to editing, Back an forth, back and forth, this is so TRUE!
And all the various accounts with the different clients' specifics.
Not familiar with a dropdown box . . .
Are you referring to F9 to get line count?
If you are familiar with this forum at all
then you should have enough insight to realize that posting such vague information without any shred of credibility will get you a less-than-desired response.
Either way, even if it IS true - what kind of friend shares such an important secret? What kind of employee leaks information?
Hmm...sounds familiar sm
Is this company out of Texas, perhaps.
Sounds familiar.
Feast or famine.
sounds familiar
I'm drowning in paper. I have piles everywhere, including my bedroom floor and dresser. I used to be very organized and couldn't stand clutter, I don't know what happened. I live with three other "messies", husband and two of three children. I think I just gave up. I usually can find things, but it bugs me a lot. Can't seem to get myself to clean it up. This has a psychological basis I'm sure. I'm not lazy, otherwise I keep a really neat, clean house. Stressed out maybe the reason, just don't know where to start first when I do have some time to myself. It's always something.
sounds so familiar!!
I guess most office atmospheres are like that...it sounds so similar to what I had worked with until I went home...and boy am I glad I did!!! I am a social person, but absolutely do not miss the office crud!!! Now I have been doing home repairs and "fixing" up my new "office" as well as getting out a couple of nights a week. Also spending more time focusing on my needs, i.e. pampering myself more!
We are attracted to what is familiar to us
Womanizers, alcoholics, workaholics, rage-aholics...if our dad was one, there seems to be a good chance we find ourselves married to a replica of him. At 48, I decided just to be alone as every man I found myself with was a psycholoanalysts' worst nightmare (these men rarely seek help and rarely change in my observation).
Anyone familiar with FTP Navigator?
I downloaded version 7.0 but now what? I got the files I wanted but they open in notepad. Is this right? Are they now in my PC and can I view them in a word processing program? Thanks.
Not familiar with SIM message, however,
I have found that if I am persistent and patient with their customer service line, eventually I will get through and get an answer to my question/problem. There is a yahoo group for tracfone users and I have found them to be very helpful also, especially with codes for more minutes, etc. Someone there is probaby familiar with that SIM message. Hope this helps.
Websense - anyone familiar with?
Something called Websense has decided it is my own personal internet sentinel and blocks various websites. I don't know who/what this is and I have not authorized it to do so. Anyone know anything about it? How to get rid of it or shut it off?
Sorry.. I am not familiar w/ExText
Thought maybe it had its own shortcut program. 
Also, not familiar w/ Vonage, but ..sm
If there is any kind of option for pulse vs. tone dialing. If Vonage is set up for pulse dialing, it might be that the station isn't recognizing the ID # when you enter it. That's a longshot, since most are now all set to tone by default, but it's an idea.
Anyone familiar with Olympus DS-30?
I need to find digital recorders for a few doctors. I am looking at the DS 30, but want to make sure its a decent recorder, but don't want to spend too much $$. They want to email me the digital files--so I was wondering if this recorder is pretty easy to use/set up?
Thanks for any info
Sounds familiar...
There's that 7 years again, me too. Would agree with much you say. Are you elsewhere now and do you like it?
Thanks for the info! So is anyone familiar with... SM
VoIP companies called Phone Power or ITP? I've decided against Magic Jack because of the problems. I did some research and found the two above companies were pretty reasonable or maybe I should just stick with Vonage?
MRT Services - anyone familiar with them?
Anyone ever heard of MRT Services? I saw them online. Please provide feedback.
Sounds familiar only.....
once in a while if I fall asleep watching TV, I dream I'm trying to transcribe everything that's being said. Only problem with that....you can't backspace or fast forward. Now that's frustrating!
Uh oh! Sounds familiar. I have an 11yo too. sm
She is my 4th out of 4 and, believe me, times have really changed over the years.
Some of these 5th grade girls come to class all made up, tight jeans, etc., and their parents ALLOW it! One of my daughter's classmates has cable TV in her bedroom and can watch MTV and horror movies, etc. AND she has her own cell phone! That's just plain nuts.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but when I hear, "well Susie gets to do this and that," I say, "You're not Susie and you know the rules." Sure she'll experiment. My older kids did, but they knew in their hearts I didn't approve.
One thing I did do was yank the cable. Oh pity, too bad, you don't get to watch garbage on TV now do you? I'm such a MEAN MOMMY. 
My 23-year-old daughter pulled a ton of stuff on me growing up and now she's a mom. You should hear her talk about setting curfews, etc. I'm like, "Uh, you have a good 6 months before potty training yet."
the tone of your post is so familiar
If you somehow follow my other posts, which are mostly just vents, and why you are following them so closely? Who are you???

Landmark Transcription--anyone familiar with them
I currently work for xxxxx, but recently saw an ad for Landmark Transcription that sounded interesting. Anyone have experience with this company or know their protocols?
Edited to remove current place of employment. BuckeyeLil (Moderator)
Sounds familiar. I have a friend with a son who is now
a year behind where he should be because they fell for some private school cock and bull story about how he wasn't ready for kindergarten (the school was ready, however, to milk her for another year of preschool, I'm quite sure). So here's this kid now, a sophomore in high school and turning 17 in August. All for no reason, there wasn't a thing wrong with him.
Anyone familiar with Chartscript & ease of use? Tx--NM

SOS-familiar w/Cphone DA-127D?
It's crunch time - I am using TranscriptionGear Model DA-127D for first time (replacement after demise of Dictaphone C-phone) and do not have instruction manual. I've navigated through a report and need help with the following: Everytime I take my foot off the pedal, I get the recorded "To sign off you must be at the end of the report." Then, when I actually got to the end of the report, it signed off automatically with the foot pedal. I must sign reports off manually on this acct. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
Am wondering if anyone is familiar with Cryptoheaven
I have a new account that I'll be using this for and am wondering if it is hard to teach an office to use. I've used it before as an IC and loved it.
Do I need to go down to the office or can it be done over the net.
eClinical software - anyone familiar with this?
I work from my home office. I had a doc call today and say he needs an MT, but his office uses a software program called eClinical, so he thought it would have to be done onsite. He said the HPI is the only thing that is really transcribed, that the review of systems, PE, etc., is just checking boxes, and then ICD-9 codes have to be entered for x-rays and such for it to be billed properly. Is anyone familiar with eClinical? Is there any way to access it remotely? How would I even bill for this if the HPI is the only part transcribed and the rest is checking boxes/data entry? I really don't want to go and work onsite. I'm just bummed because he's the first potential client of my own, and instead of being technologically challenged like so many docs and still using tapes, he's technologically advanced! If anybody has any info on this software program, I would really appreciate your input!
