This patient recently got a diagnosis of Soft Tissue Rheumatism:  He says:


She has a history of pelvic and scapular s/l tills, polyarthralgias, tight hamstrings and stated she has lost weight. 


And in the other spot it sounds like he is saying pelvic and scapular tilts.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

Sometimes they say "levocurvature" instead of "levoscoliosis" because the curvature may be caused by the way the patient is positioned. The doc may be reluctant to diagnose a scoliosis on the basis of just one study.

consistently makes up his own drugs. He also makes up his own words. If I hear the non-word "equivocable" one more time, I am going to scream. He's a great dictator as far as being clear speaking, he just likes to improvise on his words a bit. Not fun for me.

THANKS!

dictating a medicine of Xanax 20 mg t.i.d.  I'm only an MT, not a pharmacist, but 20 mg sounds awfully high, especially when the doses are usually in the 0.5 to 2 mg range.  I checked and it comes in 0.25 mg up to 2 mg.  I'm just wondering if I should put a QA marker here and ask them to double check or if I should just type what I hear and let it go through.  Has anyone else heard of somebody being on this high of a dose of Xanax before?  Thanks!

This 81-year-old patient's daughter calls the doctor to report the patient is having acute, severe vaginal bleeding.


He yawns through this sentence...


I have gone over the patient’s S/L: path history with the daughter and recommended that she go to the emergency room for immediate evaluation.


I have thought of "past" history, but it really sounds like PATH history.  Would that be possible (as in pathology history?)  Is that a common enough phrase?


Thanks.
