I work for two people....
Subject: I work for two people....

One person tells me to put disc for spine and disc for eyes.  This is for a neurology account.  The other person tells me to use disk for spine and disc for eyes.  This is for neurosurgery.  I still am not sure which one is correct though   I just go by what the person prefers.

There were three other places in the dictation that I could not understand what he was saying.

After I deciphered the 'alert and oriented' (with your gracious help), I went back to the other three. Bingo. It was like a mumble-jumble-decipher puzzle piece placed itself in my head, and I figured out the other three.

I love puzzles.

Thanks again!

The actual pronunciation of that word IS "day-breed-MON". I about died when I first heard that. I guess it's French. It sounds so hoity-toity to me. LOL

If the patient's fever does not DEPRAVEST on antibiotics, then further assessment such as CT scan of the sinuses and thorax may be needed. 


I cannot find a word that fits, but it sounds clear as DEP-RA-VEST.  Any ideas?

crazy number question
Subject: crazy number question

The company I work for does not want us to use numbers and numbers should never be used at the beginning of a sentence, but does anyone know the AAMT-true style that this should be transcribed?  I know this is a crazy question, but for some reason, I can't seem to categorize it.


Example: 


"School grade: 5th.


Members in family: 5. "     OR


"School Grade:  Fifth.


Members in family:  Five." 


I am thinking the second, but then again, I am not thinking.   :-)

When a doc spells a word that you know perfectly well how to spell, except their spelling it out confuses you and sends you on a wild goose chase?  AAAARRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! 
crazy observation here, but could he be describing...sm
Subject: crazy observation here, but could he be describing...sm

the sound of the puffs being administered, instead of staying 1 "puff" b.i.d., he's saying something that sounds like the med being administered?  I know that sounds dumb, but that's what comes to my mind.

I know, it sounds crazy...  This is a new urology account for me, and the doc is REPEATEDLY saying the following, taken directly from the notes:


(Problem of interstitial cystitis and pelvic pain) -- 'She did not use the Valium vaginal suppositories.  She had days when she felt quite well....'


(Problem of IC again) -- 'Prescribed Valium 10 mg vaginal suppositories...' 


(Problem IC and pelvic floor tension myalgia) -- She stopped her Valium vaginal suppositories, which she states are at a dose of 10 mg of Valium with 25 mg of amitriptyline and has felt much better since. 


 


I can't find a Valium vaginal suppository anywhere, people!  Any of you know about anything like this?  I imagine that if you've got a stressed vagina, that would be as good of a cure as any, but I haven't heard of it yet.  Any ideas?

Subject: Yes! Those two things drive me crazy!

It always used to be tendonitis, now the change.


And you say extend/extension so why not distend/distension?


When I first started transcribing again after a hiatus of about 15 years, I had to put "distension" in my AutoCorrect so that it would automatically change it to "distention" until I could get used to it.


Crazy question, but how is times
Subject: Crazy question, but how is times

two written, with or without a space??  x2 or x 2? I am able to view previous reports typed by other transcriptionists and some of them put it with the space and some without?  Now I am starting to doubt myself.  I was told it was without the space years ago.  Has something changed??  Thanks

Doc says:

Ms. ---- had again presented to the Emergency Department of a local community hospital for a D-dimer blood test to screen for venous thrombosis. The ___ test was negative and the patient did not undergo Doppler testing.

My problem is, where the blank is sounds exactly like he is saying piss test. What in the world sounds like that?

At that time, it was decided to explore (s/l trileptory) concerning for resection of small bowel. The patient went to surgery on that day for exploratory laparatomy, small bowel resection of primary anastomosis, and was discharged on 03/18/2009.
