exactly what she is referring to before making the decision to transcribe bilateral.  She may mean bimalleolar (ankle) edema.  If that were the case, bilateral ankle edema is very different than bimalleolar edema, which would mean 1 foot versus 2.  If you can leave it blank and get a response back, that is the best idea.

Frankly, this was a new term for me in terms of a fracture, and I'm away from my reference books. When I Google it, half of the references come up segUnd and half segOnd, and just wondered if there is a Dorland's kind of confirmation.

2 ways
Subject: 2 ways

1. Go to INSERT, AUTOTEXT (Or ALT, I, A. In autotext you can type “-year-old” and hit okay. For this side you will actually have to type at least 4 letters (i.e. –yea) and the rest of the phrase will pop up and then you hit enter.
2. Or, the one you are hunting is to INSERT and AUTOCORRECT at the top left tab. Go to middle of screen “replace” and “with”. Type ":yo" and then tab over to the With side and type "-year-old". And then enter or "ok". Make sure it is a colon not semicolon.

ALT L with start numbered list lining them up and ALT L will shut it off.

Or start typing without the numbers, returning as needed and then block listings and ALT L.

Or, type 1, tab and type and when you return for #1 it will give you the number. If it indents, back up to the beginning of one of #1 sentences and SHIFT TAB to move it back the margin.

Subject: There are several correct ways

I agree with using periods instead of semicolons to declutter the whole thing.
In the 2nd sentence I would put the comma before "and" as a complete sentence follows = ....during the day, and subsequently,.... In the final sentence = Therefore, one dose of Brethine was administered, and Stadol was given and subsequently it subsided. According to the BOS, you may join closely related sentences without commas. That is why I left out the commas in the final sentence. If you use too many commas, it becomes cluttered.
