I have bursitis, go to the drugstore and get SM
the band that goes above your elbow (it's got a Velcro closure on it)...you'll find it where the hand and leg wraps/splints are. It'll be like $10. It'll give you some relief.
Ischial bursitis --> sciatica
Do you know the cause of the sciatica? In my case I get pain in my ischial tuberosities from sitting pressure, especially the right side. There is a bursa at each tuberosity, and they can develop inflammation. Since the sciatic nerve runs close to the bursa, swelling annoys the nerve - ta-da - sciatic pain. That's why it's important for me to walk or do bum-firming exercises. Keeping the muscles in shape keeps it from getting started. The other thing I always mention is the right chair. I need support at my sacrum and along my thighs to distribute the weight around and away from my sitters.
Did you check and see what's checked or not checked in Preferences. Maybe something got messed up

Neer's test is a shoulder impingement test
Don't think that has to do with the knee. How about "bucket handle tear" of the knee? Never heard of Neer having anything to do with the knee.
the nerve!
How dare you make a TV show about my life without offering to pay me?

Obviously I am hitting a nerve somewhere
that you are taking offense to my posts. So which one is it, are you fat, ugly, have an acne problem or all of the above?
Struck a nerve, huh?
I just can't imagine any worthwhile MT being offended by what I said. The reason they wouldn't be offended is because they are the ones picking up the slack for these clowns! The losers I referred to are the main reason Indians are getting work from the US! If every American MT went to work every day and delivered top-notch documents, the Indians wouldn't be making a dime off transcription.
FYI, I don't hire Indians as I spend too much time each day fixing errors made by American MTs. Also, if you are working somewhere that you cannot respond to QA and show them where you documented what you transcribed, then I'd say you need to get out because it's a no-win situation and you are at their mercy.
Listen to the nerve of this one!
over and when I stood at the door, not letting her in, she pushed her way in anyway. I told her I was working and she said,"That's okay I will just sit in the chair beside you AND NOT TALK!" Oh, and she did...but her baby didn't, he cried and screamed until he fell asleep and she sat there and looked at me for over an hour. Let me tell you, that will never happen again. Learned my lesson then and there!
People have a lot of nerve.
I am not trying to be rude, but what kind of friend pushes her way into your house just to distract you while you work? What was the point?
Do you think you have a pinched nerve?
Pinched nerves can cause a lot of problems. You may want to call your doctor today. If you had a stroke you should be checked out ASAP. Not everyone dies with a stroke. Some people have them and don't even know it. Good luck.
Hmm, seems to have struck a nerve.

Wow, you really don't like me! I must have touched a nerve with you.
Do you work for the AAMT or are you a MTSO cheating your MTs or outsourcing to India? Or maybe you are one of those holier-than-thou QA people I've railed against? You know, the ones that never make mistakes and stroke their egos by finding mistakes in everything from medical reports to generic posts on a casual message board?
As for my dismally failing blog - um it's just a blog, my own personal soapbox. Nothing more, nothing less. Oh and thanks for reading it.
i've been through that too...ppl have nerve,
i think after 3 years of working from home i have finally taught my mom and my sister to quit calling and asking me to run here and there for them, ....took a while, didnt want to hurt their feelings...but its like...they cant do it becuz they are working...HELLO!!!!!!!!!!
eScription on last nerve
Posted over the weekend and got a response but just wondering, anyone else working on escription that the program is really, really slow, like jerky in the audio and then jerky for you to transcribe if doing straight typing? Had new ram put on and have fast access so really don’t know what else I can do, cleaned up the computer as far as defraging it. Any other ideas?
Some peeps have nerve
Well my goodness...SIMON...how interesting that name should be used for such a rude post...wonder if its a real name or does he wish he were SIMON off of that tele show...you guys know which one I am referring too, or maybe HE is is love with the other Simon...oh who knows...anyway...to point out your ignorance Simon, just because someone does not know the next steps to take in regards to opening a business or whatever the case may be and that person ask questions of others who may know, well that only educates them more. There is never a "DUMB" question. We learn by asking questions by talking and listening to others. You Simon have pointed out the true reality that there are those who assume or dont ask questions or make rude comments to cover up their own lack of intelligence. And you Simon, well you just put your ownself in that category.
One nerve left
"The decision to change the name of the organization from AAMT to AHDI was made by the members of the House of Delegates (HOD). These are volunteers elected by the membership..."
That was smart. You didn't pay anyone to do your dirty work for you, which must let you off some legal hook or other.
"The HOD felt it was important to broaden the name of the organization to include anyone working in healthcare documentation - as many transcriptionists are working in peripheral roles as editors, QA personnel, supervisory and management positions, educators, ..."
...Indian MTs, whose business now supports AHDI management in the manner to which we have become accustomed,...
"etc. Speaking for myself, I haven't transcribed a medical report for pay in at least 5 years, so calling me a medical Transcriptionist no longer encompasses my role. Nonetheless, I am passionate about the integrity of healthcare documentation - and I developed this passion as an MT. For me, AHDI is a better representation of where I fit in..."
...and we definitely needed to relieve ourselves of that pesky restriction to American MTs, which is why we unloaded that dinosaur...
javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
well it takes a lot of nerve to get sm
on this board and tell American MTs how things are and how to do things when you can't speak the language or communicate well. You are suppose to be an MT but you can't speak the language? Well I doubt that the documents you put out are very good either! Sorry but this is the reason American MTs don't have MT jobs so you need to stick to your country and your MTs and stay out of giving advice here. IMHO.......sorry I need to spell that out, IN MY HUMBLE OPINION!
you are young and dumb. The nerve of you to say
why have children if you are going to put them in daycare. When I was going to graduate school and working I became pregnant. I didn't expect my husband to quit his job and I sure enough was going to stop graduate school my six months. My triplets went to daycare and was fine.
I agree-the nerve of some people
i bet you spell the peroneal nerve as
=
Must be a grain of truth in there somewhere to have hit a nerve.
!
You'd like to hit a nerve, I'd like to stick to facts
My comments weren't made to bicker back and forth with someone who wants to have a personal war and claim touche' afterwards. They were made of my observations of what I saw with smooth transcription flow. I have no control of your choice to twist them. You know nothing of me, only that you did not like my observations. Call it whatever you will.
The company would have the nerve to appeal
This is ludicrous to say the least. Many MTs are single earners in their homes. I think to do such a thing should be broadcast across the nation. If this is happening, please let us know which companies are doing it.
whatever dolfan. touched a nerve apparently.
don't let the truth ruin a perfectly good Sunday. that is if you actually can absorb the truth of my posts which are probably perfectly clear if one is not so angry they can't see straight like you are at this point. go back to dreamland my friend and stay where it's all comfy and cozy and no one disputes your FINAL WORD!!!!(hopefully)
PS: We all state opinions here and not all of us are "liars" or "trolls" because they don't agree with your opinion. Meditate on that.
have any horseback riders here lost their nerve
after being hurt and got it back again? i have no problem getting on as long as all goes well, but when my horse spooks or something i feel so danged unnerved, which is totally new to me after all these years. does it just take time or should i hang it up?
I think you'll be OK but I totally lost my nerve sm
I switched to riding bicycles LOL (probably way more dangerous since I ride on the road)
yep - maybe your very nice post struck nerve?.
Your question/post was very nice and gentle I thought - and the other poster's response was totally out of whack - perhaps you struck a nerve! *LOL*
Have a GREAT WEEKEND!!! Ignore the trolls....they are all over the web, as you well know. 
I got common plantar nerve neuroma
in my third toe. It bends towards the 2nd toe and if you try to spread the toes, it curves unnaturally and does not bend too well. I used foam spacers for it and it did straighten out somewhat and go partially back into the correct position.
I also get swelling in both ankles and legs plus tingling and numbness sometimes. I have to keep getting up and moving around a bit for that to go away.
Being out of touch is a hazard of our job, but one reason you touched a nerve SM
that you should be aware of so you won't be surprised in future is that "ESL" is also code for bigotry, with in some sad cases the fussing over the genuine problems with achieving an accurate transcription just windowdressing for the real complaint.
Personally, I find the world and its people a fascinating place and love the way the Web has brought it to me in my little rural Georgia office, including the very wide range of attitudes here.
When your neck muscles are strained, it traps the occipital nerve.
I am with you on the "I can't get rid of it, and it kills me." Do some research on peripheral stimulators. They implant them in the occipital region. They stimulate the area with electricity that overrides the pain with a pleasant paresthesia. Plain English: It is like having a G-spot in your head; it feels so good. Another theory is that it changes the ions in the cells. As posted, I am anxiously awaiting mine to be reimplanted. You control the stimulator with a device to stimulate the strength and pulse width needed to cover the pain. It is fabulous!!!!!! Beats pain pills, which I am so sick of now.
Yup, and all those happy rabbits and cats think WE'RE gonna feed them. The nerve!
And no matter what we say, they'll just keep on having baby after baby, just like animals!  The unfairness of it all! What will become of us all?
It was $89 the last I checked, but...
you can pick them up at a much better price on eBay. :)
I checked this but....sm
I couldn't find the medication any cheaper than the one local pharmacy that I'll be getting it from. Buying in 1-3 month supply didn't cut the cost more than 75 cents for the entire 3 month period, so basically not worth the hassle of multi-month purchasing.
Have you checked into
your local telephone company? I have my DSL service through my phone company and I only pay $20.00 a month for mine.
You should have this checked out!! sm
My uncle and his wife were living in a mobile home that had some water damage from a hurricaine. This causes mold to be inside the walls. She was sick for months with respiratory symptoms and cough - they finally found out about the mold problem. By then she had some sort of infection in her lungs and ended up on oxygen and eventually died. Please get this checked out! She and her family had to make the decision to turn off her respirator (she was conscious the whole time, just could not breathe on her own.) It was terribly sad.
Just checked on this
Spouse is on disability and wanted to go back to work. They told him he can work 9 months out of 5 years if he makes under 640. a month. If he makes over 640. a month working, then benefits stop sooner. There is information on their website.
thanks -I checked with my
local govt office yesterday and they said I needed a vendor's license. Maybe I should just do a little more checking.
I just checked it out myself.
There is always someone out there trying to be funny. NOT. I reported that one too.
Thanks, I checked
and Comcast doesn't seem to have any numbers local to her.
I checked there
It completely disappeared. Unfortunately, I had the disk for the spellchecker when I worked for my first company and I don't have it any more. The tech said he'd put something different in my computer (I forgot what he called it). He has no idea what could have happened to it either. Thanks anyway.
Just checked again, and I'm sure
I guess it's kind of strange that there would be different variations. Maybe it depends on if it was pre-installed on a computer when you bought it or if it's a purchased version, or I'm sure there might be other things that could change the way different things look. I did go back and check again just now, and after the last comment, and I am sure that under the 'view' tab, if I click on 'outline', I have empty white squares.
Who knows? At any rate, at least the OP was able to use everyone's suggestions to find and the problem on their end.
I checked the archives and there isn't much on TRS.
TIA
Get your magnesium checked
I used to grind my teeth and nothing helped. When I had a physical, a wonderful physician mentioned that a couple of my symptoms (including bruxism) sounded like a magnesium deficiency. After taking a supplement a couple of weeks, the grinding stopped and has never returned.
Checked out your website and it looks like
But the Red Cross has actually done it, and that makes all the difference.
Have you checked with the school he goes to?
I know that some of the colleges my daughter has applied to offer health insurance, although she will be going full-time. I'm not sure if he would qualify, but its worth a look!
Have you checked the Job Board
If you go under Careers, then Job Bank, there is a company from Canada needing MTs. I don't remember the name, but the ad is not very old (within the past week).
Maybe have your thyroid checked? sm
A malfunctioning thyroid can cause those symptoms, I think. I used to work with a gal who was always freezing and slept alot and doc said her TSH was almost zip. He put her on Synthroid and she felt a lot better.
If OP had checked the archives on any of these
companies she would have found all the info needed. I've posted in minute detail many times about SS when asked, so the information is there.
Have you checked out Flylady.net?
