experience is, it lacks credibility especiall when you base it on YOUR experience.  Who are you?  How much experience do you actually have?  What kind of experience do you have?  How many diabetic patients have you encountered in your years of experience?


You can't expect to make a sweeping generalization like "all diabetics have hypertension" and not get called out on it.  Come on!  Know your place.  Arrogance is an unattactive personality trait.

a doc say "derbis" for "debris" and another say "aspirational pneumonia" instead of "aspiration pneumonia," but that does not make the docs correct. WE must know the difference which is the reason WE need mentoring for years after going to school and need proper references for our field, not Google.

You listed polynephritis Google references which are incorrect. Don't understand your followup.

X-rays taken today indicate the prosthesis to be in good alignment. There is no evidence of loosening s/l or___ radiolucency. There is some calcification noted at the femur and the acetabulum, but the joint space is well maintained.

My experience
Subject: My experience

I work for a hospital doing transcription and when they switched us from hourly pay to productivity pay, I went from making a little over $14/hour to over $20 an hour!  It's funny, we all thought it was going to be a bad thing to switch and our bosses kept saying we think you all will be happy, wait and see.  They were right!  I do have medical/dental insurance thru them also, it was never based on my productivity whether or not I have insurance or not.

I'm diabetic, have been in the hospital and I don't have high high blood pressure. In fact, I have low blood pressure. You need to stop spouting off things like you are all knowing. Sheesh, what a goomba*!!

*Forget all the rest of the meanings of goomba, this is what a goomba really is: a goon, a goof, a kook, or poser who doesn't physically resemble a goomba from Mario Bros. but acts just like one. You know a true goomba when you see one.

I will put a blank or a timestamp for QA.  You really should never guess especially when the audio is broken up like that.  My advice would be send to QA or leave a blank with a comment that the dictation skipped.

I know we need to defer to the BOS, which is MQ's basic style, so I put 3.  Funny how it really didn't occur to me until today, seeing it as "3" in ASR.


Thanks.

Subject: just because it doesn't matter to YOU

and google is NOT the authority on when to use which word. You can find errors all over the internet and I don't consider google a research tool unless it takes me to a manufacturer web site so I can find a copyrighted spelling.

A good dictionary and solid reference materials are needed. Additionally, the OP did not say the client wanted it one way or another so your bringing that into the equation makes you look as though you are trying to justify what you do, and I really do not care what you do. You are only trying to deflect the direction of the discussion to one in which you _win_ and you try to make me _lose_. The people here who lose are the ones who still don't know the CORRECT usage of the 2 words.

I stand my ground. The OP still does not know definitively how to use these 2 words based on this thread. And you can huff and puff and try to blow my house down but you still don't _win_.

Retzius is hard to find because it refers you all over the place, but appears to be some kind of cell column and has something to do with the cochlea. It's quite a stretch from what it sounds like--"the trex-i-vuss or drex-i-vuss
