Smiley or one of the other major helpers can help there. I'm a book person.
If you don't have the AAMT BOS (second edition), that would be the first place to start. It comes with a CD which makes it easier to look things up. I'm not crazy about the BOS as I feel it is rather clumsy, but it's compiled from the books (as well as several others) I'll mention later. These rules are adapted specifically for us MTs. If you come across a good deal on an American Medical Association Manual of Style, or the Chicago Manual of Style (I may have goofed up on the titles of these books as I have a cocker spaniel's head on my lap on the couch and can't get to my books without disturbing her), these are excellent resources. I once had a little paperback book that I carried around for years which was grammar and punctuation for writers. It was a handy little book. Maybe you could find something similar, compare it with BOS, and make notations in it.
Another way to keep brushed up is to read. Read good books. Read newspapers. Read the classics. Aside from having great stories, those great novels are wonderful sources of terms that do pop up here and there in our work. Keep in mind that our docs are highly educated, so we have to do our part to keep up. I have seen posts where MTs get stumped on regular English words and phrases, and it shows they don't read. When I was asked to staff my transcription department, I picked the readers. It made all the difference!
Bottom line: No matter how we feel about it, every MT needs his/her own copy of the BOS. The next runnerup is a good English dictionary (I prefer American Heritage, a collegiate version, as it delves deeper than just giving definitions). Of course, the big Dorland's or Stedman's for our medical terms.
You go, Girl! For 6 months, you are doing great!!

If it's a foot, can you hear hallux valgus? I'm wondering if the "salbeck" you are hearing is supposed to be a type of bunionectomy, but we are at a terrible disadvantage if we don't know if this is bunion surgery.

Body temperature
Subject: Body temperature
Dictator states the patient's temperature is 75.7. (Patient is having a surgical consult for abdominal pain). This is the third time in as many weeks I've had physician dictate a body temperature in the 70s. Celsius temp is normally in the 30s, Farenheit - of course - is normally in the high 90s. Am I missing something here? Is there some other temperature scale I don't know about? So far I've flagged them as blanks.
Thanks!
