offered no context, such as whether this is a neurology report and what part of the body the patient is having symptoms in? If you put that in your subject line, then it will catch people's attention who type those reports.
Do you realize you have

given us no information to go on? What is the procedure? What part of the body. You have all the clues and aren't sharing.

Well U do realize WE R the minority..*LOL*..sm
Subject: Well U do realize WE R the minority..*LOL*..sm

Hard to change my ways anyway at this age.....*LOL* but we ARE the minority on this, as I have many people in my life in the business forever too.  I took a formal MT class 26 years ago at a major teaching hospital (with branches all over this country) and this very issue came up, and they (the instructors) insisted that it is disk for eyes and disc for the spine.  But, like most reasonable posters have already said, they are both acceptable in use.  Again, it's always client preference. 


 


And she does NOT realize that demographics..sm
Subject: And she does NOT realize that demographics..sm

Demographics have TONS to do with that - I remember in 1980 - where I live had TONS of elderly (now deceased) so the first years of me doing MT work, the very elderly are usually in hospitals with these kinds of problems.  But now where I live, median age is 38!!!


Hence, it doesn't fit the bill any longer, and demographics have changed so drastically in the USA the past 30 years and especially the last 10 years that these statements of hers aren't cutting it.


Oh well, with the cute icon popping bubble gum of hers and it is a very cute emoticom, a grown woman in her 40s-50s-60s I do not think would usually choose an emoticom like that one - perhaps she is very, very young, and we cannot fault her for being a baby.  She'll grow up one day and realize it all on her own, IF she opens up her eyes. 


Thanks again! I did not realize my last message had cut off. nm

I realize this is only 4 days late...
Subject: I realize this is only 4 days late...

but, I  found a fiberoptic interosseous endoscopy.  Don't know that that's what it was, but perhaps if you get it in the future, you have something to look into!
Didn't realize this was the case...
Subject: Didn't realize this was the case...

Can you give a sentence to put into context what he's talking about?

But basically, I'd say if the doc dictates it that way, I'd type it as 157 cm and 3/8 inch.

Sometimes we worry too much that there's a way of doing something, and we're missing it -- We have to quit torturing ourselves about this kind of thing -- I know, it's tough :).

But I've never heard of a way to type something like that, other than just figure out what would make sense and not muddy up the report.

In a case like this, just give them what they say. If they have a problem with it, they can clear it up and instruct someone on what exactly it is that they expect.
I didn't even realize they were both correct - I have
Subject: I didn't even realize they were both correct - I have

always used "bingeing" - I think because years ago "binging" wasn't accepted by my spellcheck, but "bingeing" was, so I've just stuck with it.

I agree that we need more context. However, newbies don't realize this and deserve our patience.

I've heard a doc order his new loaded Lexus on his cell phone when he laid the phone down while dictating.  Sounded like he was gettin' a pimpin' ride!  I have also heard love making between a doctor and nurse (they were both married to other people).  Ooohh, aahhhh.  It was years ago, but was so funny.  Sorry, just had to share......
Funny you should say that (sm)
Subject: Funny you should say that (sm)

Because the next line is *Only other hospitalization is an appendectomy 13 years ago.* But what he is saying does not at all sound like appendectomy.
Thanks. That is it. She is just saying it a little funny there at the end

Looks funny

That's what I've got right now but it looks ridiculous.
Too funny. I was going to say the same thing.

The one person that "corrected" everything is gone.  I sent every single piece of garbage that she emailed me with to my supervisor.  Who has time for nonsense?  It was obvious this QA person felt she was "in control" or something because her feedback was ridiculous.


I haven't been fired either.  Go figure.

MIU/mL is the correct way unless your account refers to AAMT list of banned abbreviations, then it should be typed out

on WHICH "leg" he was referring to that was "nonpeeing." (sorry. couldn't resist) lol
Funny story
Subject: Funny story

Actually, that just reminded me of the surgeon who performed my cholecystectomy. The nurse accidently called him by his last name and he refused to acknowledger her until she apologized and called him Dr. X. Since I was the patient, and we were social friends, I completely gave him crap about it. He ended up apologizing to the nurse. lol
That is SO FUNNY! thanks for the laughs..

that would be funny if it was not so frustrating!

could he just be saying "here for very positive stool?" Makes no sense but sometimes with the language barrier, things come out, shall we say, awkwardly.

Subject: well, I'm funny about trademarks...SM

If I see it's a trademark registered item, I transcribe it like the manufacturer's website (like one see's on the product itself) and in this case, for me, it would be CAM Walker

new docs today and a phone ringing in the background at just the right spots. i just don't think coughing, sneezing would have to do with hand pain  lol 


chief complaint:  hand pain.


female with numbness, tingling, and paresthesias involving the nerve root distribution for several years. It is not made worse with s/l coughing, sneezing, or Valsava maneuver.

for YEARS and then someone dictating will make you question it.  This PA insists every time that it is A and not E.  I finally had my lead MT call the hospital to tell her that averted eyelids is wrong!  Thanks again.
I think the dictator is just saying it funny....

I'd transcribe it this way: .....over the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar area....no costovertebral angle tenderness.

I am trying to find out what exactly CHAD (as in the score for predicting stroke risk) stands for-anyone know??


Funny thing-l was checking Medilexicon for it and it also stands for "Chinese Hamsters with Spontaneous Diabetes" and "Chinese Hamsters of the Asahikawa Colony" although these do not match the letters in the acronym.  My son and I were just laughing it up over this one and wondering if some country funded a study somewhere to study hamsters in China who spontaneously develop Diabetes!
