Hypo, hyper, macro, micro
I'm a long-time MT and I still have a problem telling hypo from hyper, hypothyroid from  hyperthyroid,  macro from micro, etc....unless it's very obvious from the content of the dictation which is a lot of times isn't.    Another difficulty is the lab values...it's hard to tell 15 or 50, 20 from 30.  I leave blanks and then I see where QA fills them in.  So, I don't know if my hearing is getting bad or if they or just guessing.  Or, they may have access to othe lab values from previous dictation.  So I'm just wondering if this is a common problem with other MT's. Maybe I need to have my hearing checked.
