Before she said "VFP" she listed "clobetasol and fluocinolone topically".  I thought she was moving on to the next thing, but maybe she was referring to those and saying "the (instead of V) FP's or SP's are .05%"  Anyone know what FP or SP would be, it sounds like she could be saying the prescription dose on those topical medications.  It seems to fit anyway.  Any ideas?

Hi, I'm a semi-new transcriptionist who has had no formal training, and I'm having some problems figuring out a couple spellings.  One is a medication called *Inderon* (not sure how to spell).  The other is a phrase that I'm not sure what exactly the doctor is saying.  It sounds like *bill-raw-2 anastomoses*  Thanks SO much for any help!!!

Inderon? How about Enduron.

This doctor is slurring bad so I don't even know if my examples will be accurate!! It sounds like she hasn't gone to med school OR general english and doesn't know how to pronounce words. Ugh.

- Glypenitin? Some kind of medication. Don't know what it is for as this patient has many diseases.
- Sounds like "see-ko" syndrome... I think. I can't understand her!! Fecal syndrome? LOL Maybe it's sickle syndrome.. I don't know.
- Sounds like "smith". As in positive ANA, positive SSA and SSB (I can't tell if it's SSA and SSB or just one or the other GRR!!!!), positive RNP, positive __________, positive rheumatoid factor.

I'm going to try to finish this report. Wish me luck. :/

For the fun of it!! Hydroclomibmwlap... I don't expect anyone to look THAT up. ;) That one deserves a big fat blank. Yes, that is the exact way she pronounced it.

Enavaprovolil was actually Enalapril. How horrible is that? LOL javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');

Also, if anyone has a 2x4 so I can go beat this doctor senseless, I'd appreciate it. ;)
