Subject: Try google when you are unsure of a term -sm

put in the word as best you can with part of the sentence and see what comes up. I do that when I am unsure of a term and can usually find what I am looking for that way, its a lot faster than posting here, and it teaches you how to reference.

Subject: I would think it is lytic then, but if unsure flag it

It seems your patient either had a replacement or fracture earlier (is there arthritis in the hx?) I often hear lytic lesions or lytic lines in the areas you mention on patients with arthritis/oseoarthritis. Lysis is the process of destruction of something (in this case, bone), which seems to have been ruled out by these x-rays.

because too many times when he uses the term PFC there is no other indication of a joint replacement system having been done or anticipated, so I still have my doubts that that is really what he means by these initials.  Thanks for your help.

Subject: two thoughts; unsure how helpful, but,

This is 1 of many definitions from an "URBAN" dictionary: MACK

mack is a flexible word as a verb; it can be used in pretty much any situation and its meaning will be understood.
Thus, in your case, maybe the dictator chose the word mack as slang for height?.....because 23.5 cm is equal to 9.25 inches. I used this as an example, as I believe you were referring to dietary in a Parkinson patient?....Wish I could assist more.

This does not make sense to me, so any advice appreciated! The pt is seen for chest pain. It is the "ST segment, plane, or depression" that is throwing me off. Could he be saying something other than plane that I am missing? Thanks again!


I have told him at this time, based on the duration of his exercise and no definite ST segment, plane, or depression, that he is in a relatively good prognosis category.
