Subject: For future reference, have reports similar to this quite often. I do transcribe them verbatim, this way there is no finger pointing on what we as transcriptionists take as a "liberty" in interpretation.
If it is ever in question, they can go back to the dictators original dictation (if available) and see that is what he/she said and they are directly responsible for the content of their reports.
Hope this helps.

Per Gregg Reference (of grammar, usage, style, etc.), is lower case--master's degree, bachelor of arts degree, doctorate-- when used generally like in your example. But capitalized when used as a title, e.g., Jane Doe, Doctor of Philosophy.

Could "Overreactive lispossum" be "overreactive specimen?"
Originally, I was thinking "overreactive splenism" which I would edit to "overreactive spleen" but diagnoses are usually NOT listed with lab values, except maybe as a statement "consistent with..." so that probaby would be wrong, although abnormal cells listed are found in hypo- and hypersplenism.
In any case, just thoughts for future since this is a day or 2 later than original post.
Also, I saw serocytes in lab terms, and assume it should be "spherocytes." At one of my very first temporary transcription jobs at a laboratory, I had mispelled "spherocytes" and "schistocytes" and doctor whose report I typed had me come back to his office and look at slides to see the cells so I would remember in the future.
Have a great day.

I have never heard it before, but it does make sense. The patient was doing range of motion cold, and in your case, he is using the term "cold turkey", meaning the extremity he is trying to range is "cold", not yet warmed up. So, I would say yes it makes sense!!
