stable fluid? perifacial extension?
Subject: stable fluid? perifacial extension?

There is stable fluid in the semimembranosus medial gastrocnemius bursal space as well as perifacial extension proximally and distally reflecting possibly a ruptured Baker’s cyst.

Are these two words correct? I couldn't find any reference and that is what is clearly being said by the doctor. TIA.

Subject: just to be clear...

I just want to be sure about whether since she specified it is left side only that extensor hallucis "is" and not extensor hallucis "are". If she said bilateral then it would read extensor hallucis are 4+/5 -- am I getting that part correct? TIA
To be clear?
Subject: To be clear?

Hallucis IS.......halluces ARE. You will know when she is talking about a different side or bilateral. Don't over-think your dictator, okay? I'm thinking you may be new (I hope) and these things will become more clear as you go.

I know you're trying to get it perfect, but she knows what she's doing with the foot/feet. :)

Subject: I think if it's not clear

I would leave a blank, although it is probably hypocoagulable (my Stedman's oncology book has this word) and we used it in the lab, such as defective clotting with factor deficiences such as hemophilia, von Willebrand (which heavy menstrual flow can be a sign), low platelet count, ITP, liver disorders that affect vitamin K production, etc.  But it's really hard to say without knowing more about this patient because, if I can explain this right, there are conditions or situations that can cause hypercoagulable states that then use up all the clotting factors, etc., and then cause bleeding.  So really need to know more on what the patient's other symptoms, family history, etc. to be sure on something like this when you can't hear for sure, I think anyway.  Sorry for the long essay here, used to be one of my areas of interest a long time ago.  Once worked up a lady who had heavy, heavy vaginal bleeding after childbirth, was in really bad DIC, docs had a heck of a time saving her.  You can google on some of this if you're interested.

could be s/l Akiva maybe, but it definitely is not a V at the beginning. Unless the doc is reading it wrong from paper... not sure.

Thanks for the input!

There is no evidence for ureteral obstruction. He may be a candidate for a minimal invasive therapy such as T1T or even laser prostatectomy.


I think the OP could have been a little more clear sm
Subject: I think the OP could have been a little more clear sm

in what they were asking, like perhaps given the whole sentence.  I assumed they were asking about a possessive but it could also be seen as asking about a pleural. 


doc is very clear. sm
Subject: doc is very clear. sm

he is spelling it out exactly like this "vobenzin", or could be "zobenzim"; and, "artron".  Definitely not Benzig and artane.  No mention of Parkinson's disease which Artane is used for, and doc is clearly not saying Artane.  I went to rxlist on Internet and nothing came up either!


to be more clear - s/m
Subject: to be more clear - s/m

i'm not questioning whether to hypen or use the word "and". What I'm questioning is can you use 2 different measurement systems for the same measurement - isn't the 3/8 referring to an inch? how do you have 157 cm and 3/8 of an inch?
it's very clear...
Subject: it's very clear...

He definitely says Levoryl (now that I know how to spell it).  :)  When I do a google search on Levoryl, there are only two pages that come up.  I can't find it in RxList.com.  Is it an old drug that doesn't exist anymore?

That's why it has me so stumped.  The previous line says it was an enlarged lesion on his buttock that was excised and felt to be a "fiddle" lymphoma.
I don't think so. He's very clear.
Subject: I don't think so. He's very clear.

I've never heard of a soupy tendon though.

he starts to dictate HEENT, but only gets as far as HE then says what sounds like "loud and clear"... Extremities is the very next word.
