how'd your cat get purple?
Subject: how'd your cat get purple?

my mega spell check says readmitted is okay, but you're right, it does appear odd.  as far as 24-hour, that depends on wether or not it's a compound adjective.  A 24-hour history, or 24-hour urine, would be correct.  but, 24 hours ago, or in 24 hours is not hyphenated.  hope this helps.

REASON FOR VISIT: s/l mestakin-type discoloration.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient underwent left breast modified radical mastectomy in November of 2008. She had been doing well, however she sought physical therapy/occupational therapy for left chest discomfort. She had one treatment and subsequently noted a brownish discoloration of the skin.


I definitely hear the -type discoloration just can't get the first word.
TIA!
