obviously I'm tired when I can even spell "right" the right way and typed write.  I think it's time to punch out for the day!  Thanks again for any help!

Adding on to what I said before
Subject: Adding on to what I said before

Before she said "VFP" she listed "clobetasol and fluocinolone topically".  I thought she was moving on to the next thing, but maybe she was referring to those and saying "the (instead of V) FP's or SP's are .05%"  Anyone know what FP or SP would be, it sounds like she could be saying the prescription dose on those topical medications.  It seems to fit anyway.  Any ideas?

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.
