 How to type this.  Deep tendon reflexes plus 2 plus 2. Also, abdomen has half plus tenderness-sm
 Subject: How to type this.  Deep tendon reflexes plus 2 plus 2. Also, abdomen has half plus tenderness-sm
 
 I have been typing:  Deep tendon reflexes +2/+2.  Does that seem correct?
 
 For half plus tenderness of abdomen, I have been typing: Abdomen with ½+ tenderness.  I make sure it changes from 1/2+ to ½+ so that it doesn't look like one over two plus.  Does this seem right?
 
 Thanks.
