Hi,

My QA person marked only 7 items tramscribed wrong--don't know how that could be, but I'm not gonna' argue with her, lol.

Two of the dictators were ESL's, which didn't help matters. But it turns out that my 3rd was an absolute dreaaaaam boat of a dictator, almost made me want to tough it out and do more ops...probably NOT.

Thanks for all your attempts to help and give support regardless.

Sentence reads:

Smear was reviewed and showed macrocytes, occasional macrocytic cells, but not hyperchromic, occasional basophilic stippling, a few polys with 4-5 lobes but none with more than 5 lobes and less than 20% has 5 lobes, no granulation of her polys, no S/L Pelletier-Hewett cells?


She is talking like her pants are on fire, so it is hard to decipher any of this...


Thank you

Everytime I tried, I kept getting "Bednarski" which does not apply to incisions, but I kept leaving out the "h" before the "k."

Guess that's why I never tell someone they should "try googling" -- they probably already did. I can try and try some days and not get the answer.

It really had puzzled me how you were able to google and find this odd incision, although since I was just "reading posts" and "wasting time" not working on my own report, I just flipped over to google quick searched, and then tried a few incision type googles, when I didn't find I gave up. Had I been typing the report, I might have searched a bit more.

In any case, I was not the original poster, but just wanted to let you know sometimes even if the rest of us find the answer quickly, the original poster may be have searched a long time before posting the question.

Have a great day.
