I thank you all for your responses. I am just now getting back becuase my daughter became extremely sick rather suddenly yesterday, but feeling much better today. I definitely hear an "Av" sound.

You have to scroll down below the picture that appears on the screen, then choose any state. You then enter the doctor's last name, or part of the name, and it brings up everybody in the state that fits that criteria. You can also scan by specialty.

the patient wrote him/herself. When they can't tell what it is, they often spell it the way the patient did. I'd leave a blank and make a note with the doctor's spelling if you've already researched the term and found nothing to verify it. I found nothing in my Drake. I never trust a doc's spelling of ANYTHING!!

incorrect answers and alot of people are complaining about it. read all the posts below concerning your *answers*. those answers are definitely not helping anyone and if anyone should be kicked off, it should be you. I am not trying to be *rude*, but I AM concerned about the correctness of your answers and how it may affect patient lives. I am not the only one seeing this either and it is not a personal thing. Read the posts below...all of them. Perhaps you will understand.

Subject: Could it be no giving way or weakness? sm

This is something my ortho docs dictate a lot, usually in a series, i.e., no giving way, weakness, swelling, patellar pain, etc.

It could also be as you have it - give-way or giving-away weakness, just depending on the doc.

most definitely the stages in Hep C are Roman numerals - ask any pathology department or lab department or any hepatologist.


Stage I is characterized by inflammation without the development of any scar tissue. Stage II features include inflammation with early scarring (fibrosis) in one zone (portal) of the liver. Stage III shows bridging of the fibrosis between adjacent portal tracts. Stage IV is cirrhosis (advanced scarring with loss of normal liver architecture). Stage of Disease Terminology Early stage, mild activity (1) Chronic Persistent Hepatitis C or Mild Chronic Active Hepatitis C Intermediate stage (II or III) Chronic Active Hepatitis C with Fibrosis Advanced stage (IV) Cirrhosis
