usually mentioned in physical exam of HEENT or eyes, you want to have a negative finding, unless you are Rodney Dangerfield!

Patient has degenerative disk disease, spondylotic ridging, and foraminal narrowing at same level.  Very cleary says "bullable" but sounds like he is reading that from another report.  Anyone want to take a guess at what he means or what he is saying.

Endo-Judge
Subject: Endo-Judge

Does anyone know if 'Endo-Judge' is a legitimate surgical tool?  Doctors where I work have dictated it and it shows up in many reports usually for cholecystectomy but I cannot find any evidence that there is such a thing.  I know there is Endo GIA but I don't want to put that if it is wrong and there is indeed an Endo-Judge.  Thanks for any help you can give me!

Eyes

Would it be possible that my doc is saying "Unusual cornea. Right propine measuring 4 mm, the left 2 mm." I am not the best at researching yet. I have been on quite a few sites and you guys were my last stop. I appreciate the help.

I've never heard of "unusual" cornea. Maybe "irregular". And he's probably saying right "pupil" measuring 4mm

Subject: s/l Maggie Eyes??? sm

This is an FNP who does sometimes create her own terminology...
The patient has stepped on something in the garden and there is a foreign body in his great toe...

She dictates: "He is guarding his toe significantly. We put on the s/l Maggie eyes and with simple washing with saline the remaining foreign body was resolved with no discoloration remaining."

Thanks in advance if anyone might know what she could possibly be saying.

bilateral eyes
Subject: bilateral eyes

Okay, doc keeps correcting me when I correct his dictation, stating bilateral knees, bilateral breasts, etc. to bilateral knee, bilateral breast - am I wrong?  It seems redundant his way.  He said today bilateral eyes but it seems to type bilateral eye is just weird.  Would you type just eyes or bilateral eye or bilateral eyes?  Thanks,
