Test questions
Subject: Test questions

Why NOT post test questions here?  Wouldn't this be considered a valid resource if one were working at home?  When I took my test, they said go ahead and use the internet, use whatever you like, do whatever you have to.  All that matters in the long run is that the work you do is correct and of high quality.

I can't think of the word you are looking for (I think it's a regular English word though). But I think the doc is perplexed with the constellation of sx rather than consolation.

when a doctor starts a report a letter and then continues like it is a consult what do you do? 


 


Dear Dr.  X:  I saw your patient and blah blah blah.  Current medications, none.  Past history, none. 


 


Thanks!

Subject: I asked her that below, but...

she has posted 2 more times with no more information than the first time. Sorry we can not help you without more information. Stents can be used in Cardiology or Urology, so you need to at least tell us what discipline you are working in.

Subject: the only reason I asked about the INR is because....

usually he says laboratory data and he did not on this report.  He talked about the ECG then just said INR 3.0.  The doctor says type as dictated, so I did not feel it went under ECG thats why I wanted to make sure about the lab, not unless it would appropriately fit under ECG??  Thanks

The poster centimeter exactly the way most dictators say it - cenemeter... that, and the fact poster could not remember how to type half of one made me think OP may be an off-shore MT (and possibly using an elite anonymous proxy so that nobody would know).  Of course, I'm just surmising as I personally have no *proof*.......

I can't document this with any reference book or website, but I am pasting an e-mail response that I received below:

Your query relates to a medical condition found originating and usually found on Deer Isle, Maine. It is believed to be the result of in-breeding over
generations of the Haskell and Hardy families when the island of Deer Isle was
isolated from the mainland. There are other instances of genetic disorders occuring where similar circumstances have existed in past times. The disease results in severe deformity of the ankles and feet.

Subject: wasn't being nasty as you put it - I merely asked

how you can interpret a simple question being *nasty* is beyond belief....I asked because she never posted before 3/1 and there are a slew of questions - and is the ONLY reason I asked if she was testing.  I showed and had no attitude in my question BUT YOU SURE DID !!!

"Johnny" as slang for a hospital gown, that is. He said yes, he had, and he was pretty sure it's British slang. I told him what I'd found, which was that it can also be slang for a condom, and he too wondered just exactly what was REALLY going on in that hospital bed.... :)

You have some kind of vendetta against her that is just plain sick.
