Impression:
1. Left de Quervain tendinitis.

Will get EMGs. The patient has evidence of s/l palmarthrorheumatosis. He runs it together, so it may be palm (or palmar) arthrorheumatosis.

Any help is appreciated. :)

I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Subject: I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)

Now some are saying it's q. 4h.??  UGH, YUCK!!  I have also worked on accounts where it had to be "every 4 hours," and we had to spell out p.r.n. (as needed for).  At least we got more characters. 


First rule:  It is all what the "client/account" wants, not always what the BOS says it is.  I realize that language and its usage is constantly changing, but I've seen so many BOS and client flip-flops on so many other things in nearly 3 decades that it's laughable.  What isn't laughable is when we get penalized for not knowing what they want, even when they, themselves, don't know or are wrong.


Oh, and I still prefer the old no spaces:  q.4h., q.4-6h., q.12h., and so on.....


Wow, thank you. Just years, years and more years of experience
Subject: Wow, thank you. Just years, years and more years of experience

and a constant thirst for learning something new everyday. As we all know this can get to be somewhat boring, but learning from what I transcribe as well as from other transcriptionists keeps me going (money is not bad either). It becomes a challenge. But I can't thank you enough for the kind words.

This is not an account where I have any editorial leeway.  The doctor states, "She was evaluated by an orthopedist, who kind of poo-poo'ed the patient's complaints and apparently did not do an x-ray exam."


Opinions on how to spell "poo-poo'ed?"  


Thanks!

Subject: I haven't used one in a long time, but

I would either call tech support for Sony, I was trying to google and troubleshoot that way, but couldn't find anything, or find an office repair shop in your area as some of them still fix those machines, that way you don't have to go out and buy one.  Or if you have work you have to do now, I have had to go out and get one in an emergency just to finish the work while I got mine repaired, then had a back-up machine.  They really don't make a good machine anymore and they break down frequently, in my opinion.  I don't know how long you have had yours or how many hours a day you're on it, but it might be time to replace it.  Sorry, I wish I had a clear-cut solution to tell you.  It's so frustrating when our equipment fails us and we have so much work to get done.
