hep-lock vs med-lock
Subject: hep-lock vs med-lock

Does anyone have a BOS 2 and does it state this? Hep-lock is what is usually dictated but rarely is the patient actually given heparin. I know there is also a term Med-lock but MDs almost always say Hep-lock.  Also, what's the correct spelling, capped, not capped? Thank you.

caps lock
Subject: caps lock

This happens to me often and at random.  Sometimes if I have my email up at the same time I'm working, if I close it, or exit the web entirely the problem may resolve.  Other times I've exited my word document and the problem resolves...sometimes not.  Sometimes I've had to reboot...sometimes the problem resolves and sometimes not.  It's still a mystery to me.

Subject: Pt with s/l "side lock" nature to his headache. sm

It is my impression, at this time, that he has posttraumatic headaches that have associated occipital neuralgia pain, though there is some "sidelock" nature to this headache as well.
