I agree with you totally.

She is from Canada so may be they do things differently there. Yes, it seems like she knows everything, has an answer for everything, even if it is wrong, as in Lyderm, and there seems to be no stopping her.

I ask a few questions on this board and give some answers, only if I definitely know the answer. I feel it is difficult to do sounds like on this board without hearing the dictation. There is too much guessing going on.
Totally agree, also!

Should be changed. Medical transcription should not even have strictly verbatim accounts. It's so unprofessional. Most verbatim account contracts I have ever had actually stated verbatim with light editing for grammar/punctuation per the AAMT.

I work for MedQuist and something similar happened to me. I somehow pushed the wrong combination of keys and my autocorrect became corrupted. I called tech support and they guided me through setting my computer back to a prior date and my expansions came back. Good luck! I was so relieved as I have thousands of reports saved, as well as even more of the usual shorter expansions.

FISH [also called fluorescence in situ hybridization]

This is a lab test that measures the amount of a certain gene in cells. It can be used to see if an invasive cancer has too many HER2 (HER TOO) genes. A cancer with too many of these genes is called HER2-positive. If a cancer is HER2-positive, it may respond to Herceptin. (her-SEP-tin) This is a drug that can slow down or stop the growth of cancer with too many HER2 genes.
