Decrease Metformin to once a day. Will probably reduce Actos to 30 mg a day to decrease the swelling of his feet.
It sounded right but is Actos going to help swelling of the feet? He said throughout the report he had swelling of the tongue. He has type 2 diabetes and sugar levels are running low. Just checking another opinion.

I've done orthopedic examinations where "symmetrical with no swelling" was used. I know that doesn't sound like "farming," but a lot of doctors don't speak clearly and if you listen to it again with "swelling" in mind, see if it could possibly be swelling.

Should I type this as 6.90 minus 1 with swelling? Just had the same doctor with another patient coming in with labor, and she says "Cervix is 390 and 0." That should be 3.90, meaning the cervical length, right? But what about this patient of 690 minus 1 with swelling? Is that cervical length of 6.90? Thank you.
