but it isn't really funny and I'm not really laughing.....it was him or my sanity, as I posted below, and my sanity won out but you have put the proper diagnosis on it because I've been saying for 20 years, he was/is a passive aggressive.....always pointing the finger, placing blame and never looking inside himself as maybe it's him who is/was the problem......(also a triple virgo male *LOL* sun, moon, rising-ascendant).

I am so sorry for your diagnosis...
I am reading your post with tears in my eyes. That so hit home with me. I don't want to have my kids growing up thinking our house is "normal" as messy as it is. God bless you and I will pray for you. I'm going to make some changes in my life today.
LOL!!! How about this diagnosis... sm
And I quote - "History of injury of the poisoning at specified place." I always have to correct this guy's grammar and tense, but what the heck do you do with something like this?! I typed it as is and sent it on!
Yes, I did go to the ER and my diagnosis was:
Complicated migraine. And I am all better now.
Thanks!
Diagnosis?
Can I get some opinions before I make an appt with a doctor? Have been having mild fleeting pains in my llq, probably about a week and a half, sometimes midabdomen, the last couple days it has slowly moved upward, now kind of in my chest but still just a mild dull ache - possibly pulled a muscle? Don't think it is anything serious but is getting more prominent, any ideas? Thanks.
So sorry about your diagnosis. sm
Why do you think she spread it around? Concentrate on your diagnosis, treatment, and healing.
So sorry for your diagnosis..sm
you must be beside yourself. My sympathies!
as for the coworker, I can only comment that you had asked her to let you know, which she did. Perhaps she left off the part about the breast cancer because she did not want to be the one to tell you or let you know that. She wanted your doctor to do that. I really don't think she was doing anything wrong...other than maybe every body knows now. you know how that goes.
secondly, and I have said this before, transcription has HIPAA laws, which are a good thing, but because of a situation just like this one, I truly believe that if a Transcriptionist happens to know the patient involved, she should be able to respectfully decline to do that person's transcription. Just as in choosing a jury for a trial...if the prospective juror knows the person on trial, he should not have to be placed on that case. It would save an awful lot of this type of thing from happening, and everybody being *all up in your business*. Personally, if I received a dictation from someone I knew, I would not even want to do it. What is in those files is none of my business.
that is just my thought though.
I wish you all the best on your recovery. May the Lord hold your hand through it all!
Recent diagnosis of MS
Hang in there! You can overcome a chronic illness and empower yourself. It ain't easy, but doable. Been that way for 12 years now.
Just make sure you file the disability with a disability attorney. SS is very well known for denying claims usually twice, then court before they grant it. This waste many many months and tires us that are already tired, out. You need all your energy to fight the disease, not for your rights to supplemental income you've paid for all these years.
Your children will also receive dependent benefits until they reach 18, so again, get an experienced dis. atty. Hang in there
Also, see what diagnosis code
they used to bill. Might have been billed as a screening and that's sometimes a no-no as far as getting things paid. Obviously, you can't lie, but see if she had any symptoms at all that might justify the test.
sorry for your diagnosis..congratulate you on..sm
your wanting to raise your boys to be good housekeepers. I wish my husband's mother had taught him so many things..just simple little things about the house..like closing cabinet doors. No, truly I understand your thinking and even though I have not been diagnosed with cancer, I think about all the crap I've got stuck out in the shed that I need to get rid of so nobody else has to come along and get rid of all that crap for me. It's a lot to deal with for people who are grieving anyway.
Good luck and just said a prayer for you.
ADHD diagnosis
When our son was having trouble in school, we brought him to an expert in the field of ADHD, and after hours of testing he made the diagnosis, and, then after that got an IEP at the school. Every state is different in their different programs, but they all have to provide help for children with special needs. Our son was at a college at another state, they had his IEP and went there for two years, came back home and is at another local college and they told him he never should have had a full load of classes and he is given extra time for testing, etc. The school system should have a special needs department, like they do here in my state and you can contact them about extra help for autism, learning disabilities, etc. It makes a big difference in getting the kids all the help they need to succeed and not fail in any of the schools. Also, I believe the Americans with Disabilities web site can help also.
Very sorry to hear of your diagnosis...sm..
Like the other poster said, think positive and go forward from here with what you need to do.
1. You asked her to let you know if she typed the report so she did so that's not a violation. It could be a violation if it wasn't emailed through an encrypted email program but I wouldn't make a stink out of that.
2. She should know the rules and should know it's a major violation to blab to the department so if she has any brains in her head, she'll keep her piehole closed. I wouldn't worry about it right now or jump to conclusions, but if you do later hear that others in the department know, I would report your suspicions to her supervisor.
Are there any steps you can take at this point to keep it under lock and key so no one else finds can read your report in that department?
Beyond that, I wouldn't worry about it and would focus on licking this temporary setback. I wouldn't worry about what's going through her head and why she isn't contacting you anymore. She sounds flakey. Focus on you and your family.
My sympathy as well on your diagnosis
But as a radiology MT you know that the treatment for breast cancer has advanced considerably and many women go on to live long, healthy lives after breast cancer treatment. So focus on the positive for the now.
As far as your coworker, I understand the desire to know the results of your tests, but yes, she should have told you to ask your doctor for the results instead of sending them to you. Then, if she gave the results to anyone else, the HIPAA violation would be entirely on her part. I don't know if you have spoken to her since she sent you the report, but it is possible that she was either caught sending the email or she talked to someone about it and was reprimanded for the HIPAA violation, therefore she is now afraid to talk to you at all because she does not want to risk getting fired. (Just one possible scenario.)
Your best course of action is just not to worry about the opinion of your coworkers. You have a job to do, and that is to concentrate on getting well. Don't let this distract you. Focus on what is important, and "don't sweat the small stuff".
Good luck!
Sorry to hear of your diagnosis
Unfortunately this happens when you have your tests done at the same facility where you are a patient. I am also a product of feeling like "every knows". It is not fair to you, but I feel in hindsight now I would never choose to go where I worked to have testing done unless I didn't mind that the people I worked with know of my personal health information. It is a common thing in hospitals and physicians' offices for people to snoop and want to know your business and unfortunately, this isn't always a positive thing. If you need other tests I would suggest trying another institution and also mention this to the physicians who care for you, but they may say the same thing - that you should NOT have asked a former coworker to let you know of your results. Only the physicians have a right to that information and the right to relay that to you. I fortunately did not have breast cancer, but my incident stemmed from having a mammogram. My boss posed as a friend in the mammogram department the day I had the lumpectomy. Yeah right, some "friend". She was just being nosey and wanting to know when I would be returning to work because the typing was getting backed up. Again in hindsight, I will never step foot in that hospital again for anything in regards to my health. I go to a different hospital/radiology department from now on. Good luck with your health and best wishes to a resolution to your anxiety.
Spelling out abbreviations in the diagnosis
when told specifically not to is not following instructions.
Thanks to both of you...verbatim account. Has to be as dictated unless in diagnosis.
We do use dx for diagnosis, and all the short cuts expanders

I am on XANAX. I did not think my clinical diagnosis would be on report.
When given this diagnosis, the first thing you want to know is how far it has spread. It can mean life or death. My doctor was OOT for two more days and I was panicking. I needed to know if it was abnormal so I could begin thinking of what the future held. I am not thinking RATIONALLY!!!!!
Last week I've been diagnosis with Multiple sclerosis and I did sm
go to file my disability and found out what I would get paid if approve, I am working 7 days a week, 24 hours a day off and on. My husband is deceased and I have two kids to raise and one must do what they have to do.
Proper education? LOL
This is not a regulated or licensed industry. There is no "proper education".
MT schools give a beginner level of knowledge and maybe a little touch on doing dictation but there's no "proper education" to be had here.
I've done this 25 years. I've never had "proper education". I was trained on the job. I was an EMT when I started my first MT job.
And please, stop comparing MTs and nurses like attorneys and paralegals. Those ARE regulated industries. Certification is necessary and a degree necessary.
Get over yourself. ROFL

people who are attracted to something that is not proper.
Instincts are not always in one's best interest and to follow those interests doesn't make it right.
Who decides proper? If these two cowboys sm
lived alone with each other and didn't get married and pretend they weren't gay they still wouldn't be proper, right? They couldn't win for losing your book,right? It's views like your that push gay kids to committ suicide rather than live in YOUR world and deny how they were born. And they are BORN that way and here's how I know-who would CHOOSE such a behavior knowing how half of society would shun them??? Who would CHOOSE to be ridiculed and made fun of? Who would CHOOSE to be judged the rest of their lives not on who they are but who they live with???? I know a lot of women married to creeps who I don't judge because of their husbands, judgement by association is cowardly. Why don't you get to know PEOPLE and judge them accordingly based on WHO they are not WHAT they are??
Proper way to submit resignation?
How much information does one have to include in a resignation? Just the date effective? Do you need to give the reasons in the resignation? TIA!
Proper nouns get capitalized...sm
I know, I know, they all have their opinion; but as far as I know, the correct way is if they don't say the "Proper" name of the area then it is just a common noun, which does not get capitalized.
Ex:
St. Mary's Emergency Room
The emergency Room
West Central Ear, Nose, and Throat Clinic
Referred to an ear, nose, and throat clinic.
The account specifics might say different.
Here's one for you:
When you are typing your resume, and you want to say you have experience in clinic notes, do we capitalize Clinic Notes? I'm seeing it both ways. I would say "no" but want to make sure.
TIA!
Either you know proper English or you don't. It's not something you turn on and off. nm

Diagnosis of perimenopause versus adrenal fatigue? I'm getting very confused on where to turn
To me, my symptoms coincide exactly what to me seems to be perimenopause, but also seem to be some adrenal fatigue as well. Wouldn't adrenal fatigue be a natural result of the perimenopause hormonal fluctations, i.e., very lethargic and listless, insomnia, mood swings, energy swings, fuzzy brain? I'm getting conflicting advice and opinions and just don't know where to turn anymore. I just want this fixed, and didn't think it should be that hard. I went to this GYN my sister referred, but he seemed to me to be rather clueless and had me do some antithyroid antibody tests and put me on fish oil and folic acid! No hormone testing whatsoever. Then, I talked to a pharmacist locally who also deals with women on this same issue (my sister too), who has a Ph.D and consults with the MD. I took her test and she diagnosed me with severe adrenal fatigue, but again, I think this is probably just a result of the hormones messing up. Any advice? I don't want to do a lot of unnecessary testing that insurance doesn't cover, such as the saliva test. I'd appreciate any advice. I'm thinking to just go maybe just go my my PCP and get on an antidepressant or something.

they don't move the post to proper board....sm
the moderators may remove a post/thread but they don't replace it on the proper board - that would be your own thing to do.
HTH (hope that helps!)
I agree with capitalizing proper nouns only. sm
That is the proper way in the English language. Unfortunately, that may not be what BOS recommends. :(
I have a theory about grammar, proper English going the way of
the dinosaur. I am beginning to think that with all the ESLs who cannot speak English, that everyone else has totally forgotten how to conjugate verbs, have no idea what sentence syntax means, understand the relationships of nouns to verbs, etc. I am wondering how long it will take before no one makes much sense and it really bothers me. I see paragraphs where truly, it is difficult to tell exactly what is being said, what relates to what. I long for the days when I had an ESL who wanted me to correct her, even to the point of completely reworking her sentences to sound better.
If the dictators could speak proper English and enunciate clearly,
if the supervisors didn't bounce MTs off of QA in less than a week and then gripe at everyone about leaving blanks, if the account specs were clearly delineated, if the pay was worth a darn, if the QA feedback was constructive and consistent, then maybe the MTs would care about quality and loyalty.
Sorry, but my account goes by proper English grammar rules
not that made-up garbage from the AAMT.
Poor sound quality, looking up proper names, sm
switching from one account to another, not enough work, repetitive stress injuries, accounts continually changing they way they want things done, uninvited guests, slow ISPs, inability to get broadband, accounts having server problems,lack of proper reference materials at hand (meaning MT word books and dictionaries), relying on Google 100%, visiting this and other boards, chocolate cravings, food cravings, extreme boredom, extreme fatigue, delirium.
If you have your own account and no longer want to do it, how long is proper notice?
I have a very small account that is way too much aggravation. They have abbreviated things so much and nickeled and dimed me to death. Plus the dictation is bad. I'm making almost no money. I am thinking of telling them they need to find someone else. How long a period of time (notice) should I give them before I'm done?
Proper or pretentious to use *AA* (assoc/arts) after one's name professionally? (nomsg)

way off topic wedding present question - is there proper etiquette on the amount a guest must (sm)
spend on the wedding present? I have known people who hardly know the bride and groom yet spend $75 to $100 on a present. Is this now the expected/correct amount to spend? I was inclined to spend $25. Am I being cheap?
The truth will set you free and the truth is more low level income people w/o education or proper
skills to keep up their home or train their children live in trailer homes and low income housing. If that sets you off, maybe you should not visit these threads or read the posts regarding others viewpoints on trailer parks. They have zoning laws against them in many communities because they draw undesirable people are not particularly pleasing to the community as a whole, bringing property values down. If you have issues with this, seek out the government in various communities and have them change the laws. Fact is fact and you cannot dispute these facts.
You should type them. I usually type them in parentheses following the diagnosis.
