SPLENDA IS NOT ASPARTAME

Aspartame has many aliases, but it is not the same as Splenda. For more information on the dangers of aspartame, here is a link to a website:

http://www.dorway.com

Take all foods with ASPARTAME out of diet. Stop cokes, chocolate. Eat leafy green veggies. Drink

just did a research for a friend of mine whose doctor had given her vit E and quinine for her leg cramps. When I was researching I ran across the above to go with your type symptoms along with the leg cramps.

Check it out on Snopes.com
It'll be listed on there.

Actually, Snopes says it is in October.

Check Snopes
I always check Snopes for stuff like this. I learned long ago not to forward anything like this, as it was a bit embarrassing to get a reply back saying "Snopes says this is a fake," etc. So I signed up for Snopes, get it every weekend, and voila!

That is a scam!! It is on snopes. It will not work
because it was posted by another gas company so you will buy from them!!

I just love it! Snopes authenticates it.
.

Snopes is a great resource for stuff like this . . sm
I'm always leary of hearing things like this, so my first stop is usually snopes.com. They list all sorts of urban myths and legends, as well as some true stuff that might surprise you. In response to this particular topic, nope, not true, false, don't think so, etc...

Please check Snopes before posting. This is a hoax & has been out for a while now.

Okay...say Snopes is correct and it's a rumor started by a gas company...
How does the gas company that started the rumor know everyone will flock to them?

I buy my gas from the station that posts the lowest price, and not necessarily twice in a row. I may buy from Kroger, Walmart, or some other company, but they're always selling for several pennies below the big companies.

Please check out Snopes.com for false statements/urban legends

before posting. This is an email that has been circulating for a while and it is not true. See the link for an explanation.

I would buy new a Dorland's Medical Dictionary, Stedmans Medical and Surgical Equipment...SM

and Tessier's The Surgical Word Book, 3rd edition. Books you could buy used I would say would be Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine and Cardiology/Pulmonary word book. These are all the books I use the most during my day. You could buy other speciality word books as you need them and could probably go used with those.

I wouldn't bother with buying a drug book, new editions come out every year and I just stick to the FDA website and RXList as my drug references.

Also FYI, not a book, but I use my Stedman's Electronic Medical Dictationary a lot. It's easier to open the program than it is to pick up a huge 30-pound dictionary.

Medical Transcription In The Era Of Electronic Medical Records
EMR has revolutionized the healthcare industry in recent times. Many experts felt that EMR & Voice Recognition would totally replace Medical Transcription - however; the industry soon realized that transcription has certain advantages over point & click charting and many physicians preferred to dictate notes rather than document the data at the point of care themselves.

This is the one I use. It gives the Brand names on the top- and generic on the bottom. Also, you can use the wild card(*) and it gives drugs that are similar in spelling, so you don't have to know the exact spelling. Also,you can look up typical dosages of that drug, so you can double-check if you have the right ones.

I have used this for over a year and find it very reliable and affordable. You can send and receive.

At ease, soldier! This isn't a medical document. I repeat, this isn't a medical document. nm

I've thought about coding. My DH does medical coding and I think with an MT's medical termino

background and anatomy and physiology knowledge, a transition into coding wouldn't be hard at all. From what I can tell by looking through my husband's books, an MT would have to learn insurance regulations and legalities. We've basically got all the medical background down or we should be if we're worth our salt as an MT.

I even contacted AHIMA and found that the qualifications for taking the CCS or CCP coding exams are completion of the a coding program, RHIT program, or RHIA or related work experience. Transcription is part of HIM, albeit the red-headed stepchild of the HIM department, but a part nonetheless and so satisfies the qualification of having work experience.

The test is tough though. My husband didn't pass it his first time out and I think I read something like only 20% or so pass it the first time. So it would probably be best to take some sort of formal coding class, in my opinion.

I certainly wouldn't let them be privy to that much info about me and neither should you. You can do something about it.

this is insane. when you see who is running this - the person whose claim to fame is actually making the medical transcription business what it is today, boasting over 400,000 MTs.

now she is trying to what, cut that workforce down by maybe more than half.

this is an extremely aggressive push for mobile healthcare and point-of service care, which from what I see completely eliminates the need for people at all, period.

does anyone know, please, is there a future for us in this picture. is there anyone working with these people to help preserve our jobs in some form at least?

where do we write, who do we talk to? this person also used to run the AAMT, and now has jumped ship for the opportunity to make probably millions for front-running this technology. does she even consider the 400,000 MTs (in this country alone) losing their livelihood. does she care?

IS THERE GOING TO BE A PLACE FOR US???
