Right knee pain. The patient has had previous injuries and problems with the knee including some arthritis that flared up a few weeks ago and was particularly bothersome for awhile. She got on a program of s/l MSN and Tylenol

CORRECT way is "Tylenol No.3" as per manufacturer. Look it up in your PDR. I've been correcting that # sign for years now.

Don't know what type of expansion program you use...sm
Subject: Don't know what type of expansion program you use...sm

but since mibi is usually the part heard, make an expansion with that, then you will be able to see that word that is on the tip of your tongue.  I do that with certain medications, instruments and procedures that I often forget.  I make the expansion from what I usually hear, then sometimes back it up with a better description of the correct term.  Good thing the expansion programs have a lot of memory cause my brain seems to get overloaded or just downright DUH some days!  Glad we could help you! 
s/l fluid exercise program sm
Subject: s/l fluid exercise program sm

His MRI arthrogram unfortunately has showed a fair amount of arthrosis. He has been read as having a superior labrale tear, but I think this is likely a normal sulcus.

TREATMENT/PLAN: I am going to put him on some meloxicam. We will see how this affects his osteoarthritis of the hip, and I will see him back as needed. We have talked also about using cushion-soled shoes, s/l fluid exercise program with a non-resistive stationary bike and swelling or the like.

How about a flexible exercise program...also
Subject: How about a flexible exercise program...also

you might want to change labrale to labral and instead of swelling, possibly swimming as part of the exercises?  Maybe re-listen again and see if you hear this.

Rescheduling of Continuing Education program
To everyone in "Bang for the Buck" class, I am rescheduling Lea Sims.  She notified Tina that she is unable to get online due to weather problems.  She feels she might not be ready by Monday, and Tuesday is "iffy." 

 

With Emily out there, she might knock out our Texans and Louisiana participants if Lea would get back for this weekend, as scheduled; however, I will try to reschedule Lea in ASAP for this same class.  It may be August

Just started OB/GYN myself. If you don't have this:
Get the book "Stedman's OB/GYN Words."  I got mine at Barnes & Noble "used and out of print" for $9.00 and it's the newest one out.  Perfect condition when I got it.  It's getting a bit "dogeared" already.  I use it constantly when doing OB/GYN, as I've never done it before.

we MTs had very few references, certainly no Google. We would beg doctors to give us their old PDR (Physicians Desk Reference) and would find lots of our S/L there. We oldsters were definitely word detectives in our day.

as *nn* as I believe I was the first to comment on this kathie's suggestion for caudal vater syndrome as having nothing to do with the low back. Anyway, then she made the comment about all diabetics having high blood pressure, and it raised the hair on the back of my neck. When I read LOL-sm post, I literally busted up laughing! I thought it was so funny and so FITTING. it put an end to the thread and made every one laugh...good ending to something that was getting ugly and sort of put the QA back a step or two, as well! It was great! Still laughing!
