in your ear? I have one in my left ear today and I can't get it to go away. You know, when you talk and you can hear yourself really LOUD! I have tried popping my ears....I tried irrigation....I thought I may have had water in it from my shower this morning, but nope. It's driving me nuts and has made it very difficult to hear on that side today. Does anyone have any tips on getting it to go away?

Head bubble
Yes, it's disgusting. Try submerging your head under water, i.e., swimming or tub, etc. When you come up, pinch both sides of your nose closed and blow as hard as you can. Usually works for me. Good luck.
not to burst your bubble but (sm)
(and not trying to be mean) are you actually having to hit a key to make this noise? If so, all those Keystrokes by the end of the day add up to that many lines that you WON'T get paid before. You could have been making actual paid-for keystrokes instead.
Sorry to burst your bubble
My cardiologist's office has been using EMR for years. One of the early versions of their program is on display at the Smithsonian. The documentation is clear, clean and accurate. He let me see it because I used to transcribe for the office. Now they have a Transcriptionist only for letters. A nurse does the triage - vital signs, review of meds, allergies and past history. The doc is as focused on me during the exam as he ever was. He enters the data at the end of the visit. I have no complaints. They are a huge practice and have many offices. The office I go to is not the one at the hospital where I would go in an emergency - but they can easily get my record on their VPN. No waiting until the office opens to pull a chart and then truck it to the hospital. Their EMR required a lot of programming to get all the drop down boxes and choices, but it's wonderful! And yes, they have back-up and security up the wazoo.
No, sorry to burst YOUR bubble, but...
I have read and did some research on the EMR and a lot of patients did NOT like the fact that there doctors typed away on the keyboard more than examining them. Not all patients or staff is so easily sold on this technology. Like any other system, it takes a while to learn and get the kinks out, but the thought of a doc typing in the exam room while listening to me still leaves me with a bad feeling.
That is not good pay. Sorry to burst your bubble. ! nm

I hate 2 burst ur bubble...
But U truly R barking up the wrong tree, lady! Sheesh - manhater???
I hate to burst your bubble but....
the drugs, sex, pregnancies, and all the rest flourish in the private schools too. Have you heard of the principal in New York who cancelled the prom because of all the extravagance and partying that occurs after their proms? My best friend went to catholic high school 25 yrs ago and 7 girls were pregnant at graduation. Then there's the troubled kids who are dumped into private schools after the public schools after they are expelled. It's nice to think that you can insulate your precious offspring from all the nastiness in the world, but you'll better serve them by teaching them values and morals at home and how to resist those things which are bad for them. Your kids will gravitate towards the kind of kids that they are. I have a high school senior who has never been in trouble, has nice friends, and knows how to resist the bad stuff that's out there.
Dont want to burst a bubble
but I think you should think about a plan of action before deciding on the first thing that is suggested!
Be careful that an action you take is going to advance your cause - not just get you fired. :)
I think I might start a blog.
I hate to burst your bubble....
....and they seem to be able spin a good tale.....do a search on Focus, and you will see that they are not the most up and up company out there. I'm afraid you'll find it's very hard to make a good living with them, even if you do work graveyard shift and get a good differential. I would hope I'm wrong, and you do well. But it's highly doubtful, as dozens of QA would tell you who have been there, done that...
I hate to burst your perverted bubble.
Maybe you are a molestor and would get off on knowing that I was molested, but I wasn't, so sorry.
Bazooka Bubble Gum with the comics in the wrapper.

Yeah..call me crazy but I pack it in bubble wrap and pillows..You'd be going a little further so
As far as a laptop, it's a hassle, but you can take that in a carryon bag so you know it would be knocked around. The worst part is that you have to take it out everytime you go through security at the airports but it isnt bad. I just ordered a laptop today so I can start taking that and retire my desktop..that is as long as this new adapter I just bought works like others say it will. My husband is bascially retired and I hated that he could travel without me so I quit my in-house jobs to go home this year doing transcription and now that summer is here and our little one is out of school, we're off and running. Vegas this month, then Calfornia the next..etc... I love this job!!!
Thanks because that was really annoying ! nm
Oh yes. It is very annoying to say the least. sm
I take a lot of breaks during the day and go outside to get fresh air. I actually think the anxiety is what is causing the heart palpitations. I have a prescription for Xanax, which I cannot take and work, but I do use it at night before bed on a very infrequent basis.
yes really annoying
equipment, moaning patients, laughing and talking nurses, barking dogs, and children crying or trying to get mom or dad's attention (stop that, I'm dictating!) funniest one was an announcement over the loudspeaker about a pizza delivery to the nurse's station.
it's really annoying
happens quite a bit. I do get the credit though I put in a note that says dictator did not complete report but I still get paid for what I typed.
that would be annoying....
guess there is job security after all.
very annoying
I have an RN who dictates I have a problem with this chart. She also gives lab values and then says No, I don't like those lab values, just delete them. . It's very annoying and also, what does it mean? How can you not like the lab values. . . Just a little irritated this morning. . sorry to vent. .
annoying
It is just annoying to get your speed up on an account and get used to the dictator and then they go and quit giving you that work for a little while and then they want you to do it again. So wishy-washy. I don't get it. It seems like it would be easier on the company to put you somewhere and leave you.
annoying
Something that bugs me to no end is when dictators use the word "nor" constantly and incorrectly. grrrrrr.....
Annoying!
I have one female provider who sounds like she is sucking on a lozenge the whole time. Worse than that, one doc clicks his pen over and over while I wait for him to say something (which is usually impossible to understand anyway).
ugh. baldwins are annoying now.
fat and bloated.
annoying dictator
Here's a good one; 7-1/2 minute dictation, first minute put on hold, then dictator dictates for two minutes, then says, Never Mind, Lets start this ALL OVER. And they wonder why we are tense 
Annoying dictator
If you are being paid by the line, I sure would dispute this! They have no idea, do they?
Annoying crickets sm
You know, I love summer with the sounds of birds and all that, but this cricket outside my window is driving me absolutely batty. GRRR. 
ok now I see it - extremely annoying. NM

Management again. SO annoying.....
Gaaa
Yes!! About 10 days for me. Very annoying.

annoying doctor
I have to say you gave me my first good laugh today. I have had doctors fall asleep and say, well, you know my routine, but just let me know if you cannot figure it out.
Oh golly, that must be frustrating and annoying.
maybe you can make a game for yourself of second-guessing the QA folks. It sounds like they are the kind of ill-informed people who would rather cling to their ignorance like grim death than open their minds and learn something useful. If you look at figuring out their foibles as a game, maybe it won't rankle so much.
So annoying to get a good debate going, and then it's gone.

How annoying. What is it with the flaky factor?
Not transcription related but I am trying to get volunteers to help with a big community theater project and I don't know how many times I get the "oh yeah I will definitely be there blah blah" and I end up with mostly no-shows!!! I mean I know it's volunteer but why lie? If they don't want to, just $%#^ SAY SO.. Can't imagine people doing that to a real job, what idiots.
Put annoying redundants in your expander...sm
and at the end of your pay period, count them and either aggravate yourself or LYAO all the way to the bank!
extremely annoying LOL I just did one today where the doc kept using the first name or the middle
None of which was spelled. Wish they would make up their minds sometimes. It would be funny (I was getting a little giggle out of it at the time I typed it) if it weren't so frustrasting at the same time. Have a good one! :)
RE: I think they should send Paula home - she is so annoying........

Really strange, sorry it's annoying, we're cking to see what's up.

What is your most annoying redundant speech pattern? sm
You how doctors always seem to have a pet word? They will use it until you are ready to smack them.
Subsequently. Said by an ESL at least once in every sentence and pronounced sub see QUEENT ly. He is also says Prolene mess potch and plook for mesh patch and plug.
Next...next this, next that, next, now I...
At this moment. Did you know you can start every sentence in a 2-page report with at this moment?
then
then
then
and THEN I screamed and was heard in the halls of every hospital in America.
New nominee for most annoying doctor today s/m
This guy is walking on the treadmill while he's dictating, so not only is he so scatter brained he doesn't know what he's talking about, I get to enjoy the heavy breathing.
these boards allow you to "backhand" annoying people so you don't take it out on your famil
and don't be arguing with me today. you know i'm right.
I have one who yawns a lot. Kind of annoying but I guess he's just tired! (nm)
nm
Yeah, really! What an annoying, obnoxious, bottom-feeder she is!
Star sucks, bubbye loser!
In it to lesson annoying contact with the management species.
