Big sigh of relief

In Reply to: Yep, me too. My accountant deducts these - TM
from the other posts I thought perhaps not supposed to claim things for the work I have done at home, even at regular employee. I am spoiled by getting full check but know I have to start putting money back soon.

relief
I start to brace at night. Believe it or not it helps. Warm soaks help too, take a potty break and run under warm water.
I'm sure it would come as a relief to be fired.
What an ego! Hasta la vista, baby!
tendonitis relief
I'm looking for ideas for symptomatic relief of tendonitis, sleeping in a brace doesn't seem to be helping much. The pain started in my left pinky finger and is now traveling up toward my elbow. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Transcription Relief
Does anybody know anything about this company? I tested for them and wonder if anybody has any experience with them. Thanks.
pain relief
A conservative measure would be to purchase an ergonomic chair, if you are not already using one. They are costly, but work well in alleviating alot of the 'stress points' while transcribing. If you want information on where to purchase one, please contact me.
Transcription Relief
I took the test for Transcription Relief Services a year ago and passed. However, they only offered me 7.5 cpl even with over 20 years experience. So, you are not missing anything.
you are right (sigh)
They "say" that this system can tell if you do that. I believe that it can but I don't think they take the time to check. I know how to cherry pick too, but I don't. That is why I liked it when I used to get paid by the minute. Now that was wonderful! Those days are long though--gone to VR.
sigh
Like I said, it's not the info. It's something else.
& I've been using Belarc for years.
I don't think I could be an MT now, sigh...sm
It's been close to three years since I retired, and I can't believe the changes. I never worked with VR/SR, whatever you call it, so I'm not in a position to say anything about it. I could probably teach terminology, but that's all. I was never a computer whiz, and all this new software alone would be overwhelming.
How can it be profitable to use some of this VR with horrible dictators and then the MT have to spend an hour making corrections to what she could just type in, say, 15 minutes or less? It makes no sense to me, but like I said, I am now out of the current loop for sure.
I remember in May of 1992, the then-JAAMT had a wall poster that said, "Transcriptionists...there is more to medical records than voice recognition." Apparently that is no longer considered true.
Sigh...
I subscribe to the Monster.com daily job finder, that sends me daily job openings in areas that are of interest to me. I found a job this morning for an MT where they required NO EXPERIENCE whatsoever. This was 100% telecommute position. Let that soak in for a minute...Okay. So this company promises at least $7.00 to start, and they will provide a book for you. I guess that's what this has come to nowadays, where they take any Joe Schmo off the street, and say, "Well, here you go. Start transcribing!" Isn't that something? Little Suzie Homemaker who takes this gig, thinking she'll now be able to stay home with her kids and make some money typing is in for a bit of a shock, when she gets a neurosurgical report from Dr. Tadimallakaidanelankea. I wonder what's in that one book that they provide, that will magically turn her into a skilled MT...
No need to sigh....
Some people just like to come off like they are know-it-alls.... drives me insane! Just keep on truckin'; you'll be fine!
I just saw on MSNBC where relief efforts sm
have finally reached Slidell. From the video, there are boats and jetskis and FEMA is there, too. There is flooding and the homes have been severely damaged. Hope we can hear from her soon.
s/l morphine and T3s for pain relief sm
for patient with metastatic cancer. TIA
No to tax relief agencies. Depending sm
on your situation, you can do this yourself through an offer in compromise. Most are a scam or a ruse to flush out people who do not pay taxes. I answered an ad on TV for NADN for help with taxes, and ended up with someone from the Treasury Department at my front door. That was just the beginning of my nightmare.
Wow.. Thanks.. what a relief.. no blanks in that report thanks to you!!
Anybody had any experience with tax relief services SM
for back taxes owed, specifically state tax? I owe some back taxes to the state (2005), not much, $1200. Need to come up with it pronto. I saw an ad on TV about tax relief and was wondering if anyone has done this. Thanks.
Neck Pain Relief
The main problem I have is neck pain from typing. Found some good products to help and especially the neck exercises that keep me going with less pain and headaches.
Sigh...unfortunately, I've met people like that. NM

Nat'l Humane Society Disaster Relief
Just watched the rescue of doggies, kitties and birdies with 1700 animals rescued. My wallet just got a couple dollars lighter. Poor little things.
do't worry, go for the steroid shot and relief!
I have tendonitis along with RHA. When my elbow flares up (as it's doing now), I pop the ibuprofen, use a gel wrap for "tennis elbow" you can pick up in the drug stores and try to limit my heavy movement with that one.
That said, I have to have it along with my hip injected 3-4 times a year. Not sure if my rheumy is just the best or not but I've never had any pain with the steroid injections. I call him slick and the relief is almost instant, no more tears from the pain. HTH
Similasan for earache relief. It is homiopathic.

Transcription Relief Services has a school
with AAMT approval for offshore transcriptionists.
Why is the AAMT promoting this?

For temporary relief, try Salonpas patches SM
I have chronic back pain and went through the chronic pain classes with my HMO. The spine surgeon suggested trying Salonpas patches. I didn't think they would help at all, but they did give me some temporary relief. I feel they work as well as the expensive "name brand" heat patches you can buy, although if I am going to be on an airplane, I wear one of those bigger and longer lasting patches. The Salonpas are about 2 x 3 inches, flat, have a pleasant odor, and I have used them on my back, on the wrists, and one time even on my face for a sinus-type headache. (My daughter says I was crazy to do that, but it helped). You can buy a box of the Salonpas very reasonably at any drugstore but they are VERY cheap at Sam's Club or Costco. It is really awful to have to transcribe (or do any work) when it causes pain. I hope some of these suggestions others have made will help you. I have used the type of neck pad that you heat in the microwave, but that was a long time ago. I just saw them on the Mouse Mitts site, thanks to the MT who posted the link. I'm going to order another one of those right away. There are a lot of helpful people out there. Take care...
Wise.MT
Yes, thank you! And thank you for locking out some of the negative messages. What a relief!

sigh - main not mail - just got up lol

[sigh..] I know I'll get flamed for this, but - sm
- here goes, anyway! ---- "How funny would THIS be?"
I know it would be impossible to ever get MTs to stick together on anything, let alone a work-stoppage kind of strike. But can you imagine the hilarity (at least on OUR end, anyway), if for just one week. Heck - one DAY, even -- we all decided to transcribe everything verbatim? And I mean, VERBATIM, not the 'fixed-up' kind of verbatim most of us are expected to do. I mean verbatim, as in if they don't punctuate anywhere in a 3-page letter, they get a 3-page unpunctuated letter. They screw up the 'copy-to' addresses, then instead of spending OUR time looking up the correct address or spelling of the recipient, let it go as-is. If they say "left" and MEANT "right", they get "left". When they bounce back and forth between calling the patient a "he" and a "she", and don't clarify it, then that will be come a report on the world's first simultaneously dual-gender individual. All the little checks and balances, and save-their-@ss type of transcription we do automatically, doesn't get done for one day. Unfortunately, it would probably cause every Editor in the country to simultaneously call in sick with killer migraines. But that's okay, at least it would be FUNNY. And lord knows, this profession could sure use a laugh now and then, couldn't it?
donations for the relief coming from 50+ countries, including
-- India is making a $5 million donation to the American Red Cross, Ambassador Ronen Sen said Saturday. In addition, Sen said India was willing to donate essential medicines to the relief effort, noting that India has the largest number of Food and Drug Administration-recognized pharmaceutical companies outside the United States.
sigh...another report to add gray to the head
Doing a psych eval on a patient I really got caught up in, one of those sad cases that can get to you, feelingbad for the family, traumatic brain injury after an MVA, 23 with 1 yr old twins....has not been the same since, hence needed a psych consult on admission. IF I typed this phrase once I typed it 20 times "patient very highly distressed and anxious"....well so was I by the time I spend 45 minutes for 68 lines...nope, not ESL, but all American good ol boy, must have had a beard, can't figure out what the static & noise was, but noticed when he blew my ear drums out it was there,,,when he strained them, it was'nt..not sure why he felt he had to whisper on parts then break the sound barrier on others anyway...signed off before another one of HIS reports..geez!
Neither one scared me because they're both fiction!! (Sigh)
(sigh) The M15 split is my dream keyboard.

[Sigh] .... I meant 'CAN'T' survive on less.

My kiddos start school next Wed and I'm not ashamed to say it will be a relief. My teenaged son
gives me hourly updates on his boredom every single day. Now, my daughter is starting kindergarten this year and I will be sad probably the first week because she's my baby - my last baby - but she is sooooo ready for school. She just can't wait. Maybe I should be the one with hurt feelings since she can't way to leave me!
I highly doubt my son's feelings are hurt when I say "Just think, you won't be bored when school starts."
Sigh... Talk about a tired topic. Even the die hards have let that one go.

Let me say it before anyone else! LOL
