Dumb question...
Subject: Dumb question...

At the risk of sounding dumb, I need to ask this as it happens quite often.  Math was always my worst subject in school... Dictation  states pt is on a half mg of something.  For example "spironolactone 12 and a half mg".  I know they want me to type it as a decimal rather than writing out the words.  Is the proper way to write this 12.5?  (Does .5 equal a half mg?)  Thanks!

This may sound like a dumb question but it is important for the setup of the report.

First the Dr. says knee aspirit ( I assume knee aspiration) Also the main question is would a knee aspiration be considered a surgery? TIA.

I was wondering if this is one diagnosis or 2 diagnoses.
1. RIGHT SHOULDER IMPINGEMENT SYNDROME
2. ROTATOR CUFF TEAR

The only reason I ask is because I was just released from QA and have never been so nervous in my life about making a mistake. My security blanket is gone..lol. I may be asking a lot of dumb questions for a while until I feel secure again..lol.

The patient is now 1 month post fracture of her left ulna *Dr says left ulnar* should be ulna? not ulnar
