Need help figuring something out

Subject: Need help figuring something out

MD dictates UNDER PMH:

PAST MEDICAL HISTORY


1.      Hypertension.


2.      Diabetes – treated with oral medications.  Hemoglobin A1c, 6.4.   Microalbumin 10/05 negative.


 


Here's my question.  I don't know if the Microalbumin should be separated as #3 or not.  (this guy never numbers anything.)  Also, I don't know if the 10/05 is a date or a value.  He just says, " Microalbum ten zero five negative" 


 


Any help is greatly appreciated.

WAG at "-ides" figuring that the amoxacillin or ...sm
Subject: WAG at "-ides" figuring that the amoxacillin or ...sm

"-cillin" class of abx causes too much of a reaction, so now switching to another class, the "-ides" to represent one of the aminoglycosides, ketosides, lincosamides, macrolides, sulphonamides, and/or glycopeptides. Just my guess as you hear them say the "-cillins" all the time. nm


I'd use the fetor oris figuring that he mixed it up when dictating. nm
