In Reply to: what is wrong with Elliot's mother? nm - AIFAN
she *may have* gone through chemotherapy - she wore a wig and her natural hair is so short, as if it is new growth. 
Hope she gets to feeling much better real soon!!

I haven't bought a drug book in 2 years - I use Google ...sm
and the FDA website. Both are faster than flipping through a book and free.
Yep, google has it goin on... I really like the google earth...
Have you tried Google earth? You can type in any address, street, city, state, country, etc. and it will zoom in and show the area and then you can hit the + button and zoom right in and see the exact house, building, etc. that you are looking for.
Mainly Google; I google the known words in the phrase (sm)
That's my most frequent tactic if I don't find the word in my word books. I'll play with leaving certain words out and adding them in, in various combinations, to try to get a hit that has a word which sounds like my blank. If I get a hit, I'll Google WITH that word, and see what hits I get, and what their source is (i.e.,checking the sources out for reliability). When I say 5 sites or searches, I mean I don't often try more than 5 different combinations without a serious hit. If I get a hit, then I will spend a little more time checking that out before I give up.
If it's a drug name, I use RxList, or more frequently the Drugs.com website. Since they redid RxList, I haven't found one that has quite as good a wildcard search, but Drugs.com works okay most of the time.
If it's a place name (like when they give names of outlying outreach clinics and etc.) I'll use Mapquest and look up the city my hospital is in, then "pan out" and look at the outlying towns.
Hope that's what you're looking for. I do have bookmarks, but I find that even the ones I think I'll visit again, I waste more time doing that than with an intelligent google search. An example is the time I was looking for "banana bag." The only place I managed to find it with a degree of reliability was on a nurses' message board. I've found quite a bit sometimes on the various specialty message boards out there, but I think the quickest way to locate that is through a search engine rather than bookmarking each individual site and trying to figure out which ones to search for a particular term.
Thank you, Google God. My google icon is

Also worn out 2 keyboards in 4 years. I will never retire. DH will come home some day from work and I'll be slumped over my keyboard. I put in 14 hours a day 7 days a week.
Pack years = packs smoked per day x years of smoking - sm
25 pack-years = 25 years of 1 pack a day, or 12-1/2 years of 2 packs a day.
I don't think pack-years applies to someone who smokes only cigars. But I don't know for sure.
I worked for Cbay for 3 years. I was also part of their lay off back many years ago. sm
Even though I got stuck in a lay off era, I still love the company. They paid well then. The people were nice (exception of 1 person) and if I had the opportunity I would go back again. Fortunately (or unfortunately - depending on how u look at it), I have a great paying job right now, so I am not looking for a change. I do know that at one time, they asked management to accept late paychecks, but never sure of the reason why. My check was never late.
I know it used to be 5-10 years back, but the laws changed within the last 2 years. They can only g

6 years legal then switched to medical 17+ years ago. sm
I don't mind doing legal and will do it now from time to time, but be prepared to be totally bored out of your mind.
At least that's the way I feel. I love to transcribe, learned legal in college, went on to get my paralegal degree, etc., etc., but I did temp work when the kids were younger, which was about 90% medical and I would never go back to legal except for once in a while.
Booooooring.
Only 3 years away from reaching total years for retirement
but if I had to do this and raise a family, would feel exactly like you do. The pay is terrible compared to what I used to make. I work 32 hours a week, hope to be able to continue even after full retirement age. I have worked on VR now and unless places get to where they really do not care about how their reports look, think they will need MTs. I very seldom do a report and it is 100%, just cannot remember 1 like that and most take a lot more editing. Working now because want to, not have to anymore, thank goodness!!
If the OP had done a google, she would have...
SEEN the answer to her question. People need to learn how to fish for themselves. Giving quick answers doesn't teach them a thing, and it certainly doesn't help them in the long run. I'm not trying to berate you for offering an answer, so please don't be offended. It is just that learning/knowing how to effectively research is a VERY important part of being an efficient and good MT. 
google.com
Tia,
use www.google.com as a search engine (the best) type in exactly what you are looking for and see what you get- if you don't find exactly what you are looking for- keep searching but slightly change the search phrase.
I did google them and they are
still around $600. That is out of my price range right now. Maybe someday...
google map
yep, a totally new addiction. I entered my nephews addy and just realized he is only 3.5 miles from the White House! No wonder I kept seeing the Washington Monument every time we got on that nightmare highway system
Go look at your favorite amusement park like Cedar Point in Ohio...you can actually see the roller coasters in 3D!
Google? If Google, just go to google.com
and download their toolbar. They usually have several options! Happy Googling. If its goggling, I can't help you! 
Google
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Could anyone explain the Google page to me? I mean the "Google" header with the cat and mouse. I usually enjoy their little embellishments for the different holidays, but I can't figure out what this is supposed to be.
I had to Google your
phrase, as I was not familiar with it. Now that I know, all I have to say is...'I resemble that remark'...
That is a Google ad.

Does anyone know of a site like Google that transcrptionists can use for researching. I have always used Google, but lately it seems to be getting slower and slower, plus they have a Pop-Up status on that is driving me crazy and can't get rid of.
TIA

Google "radiology terminology" and you will get some sites.
I've had the book Stedman's Radiology and Oncolocy Words for over a decade and it's my bible. There are newer editions. When in doubt in the middle of a report, I Google the word/phrase/drug I'm looking for if it isn't in Stedman's.
Good luck!

I found my current job with a small MTSO by a Google search for "medical transcription" followed by my state.
I went on google and put in--
complaint form sample and it came up with all kinds of things. some of them you pay for, others you don't. you just have to read and find what is right for you. good luck!

I use Google and mine seems fine.

Have you tried to Google this?
I always check Google before posting questions like this on the board. I just checked it before posting this answer and there are lots of hits. Try looking at some of them and you may find the answer you're seeking here. Good luck.
did you google? NM

I think that's ok....also from google

I also Google the name...just type in the doctors name, and then the state that they are in, and it usually brings up their address. I don't know if anyone posted this one or not, but here is the link to one that I use also...

If you don't know what a word means, a simple Google search will usually answer your question without making you look ignorant.

No, but Google has something...
like that. word document, spreadsheet. I think it's a great idea. It would be great to save ydocuments online, etc. I hope someone here will have tried it.
Google ads
The ads at the top are Google ads. They are used as revenue to help keep this site going. The site doesn't have any control over the content, however. Google has a spider mechanism that reads what is talked about on the site and it tailors the ads accordingly.
I had the same thing happen with a shout box I used on a free invision board. We would be having lovely conversations and then the ads would change to things that had words that we had been using or talking about. It's a little creepy.
Google Ads
Yes, this what they say Contextual Google Ads without any control of content by MTStars. I can bear these Ads for such a nice FREE board.

Google MT
I've been using PogoFrog.com for quite a few months. It's designed for MDs and other allied health personnel. Don't know if any of you have tried it, but I really like it.
P. S. Google it! :) nm

Have you searched for these on google?
I don't think I'd try them.
Many places, google them
Ebay is probably the cheapest, that is where I got mine 8 years ago at $600, I am sure they have come down some since then.
Researched on Google
I found nitropatch, not capitalized, one word

Weird google ad ...
I clicked on the New MT board, and the Google ad (right above the messages) that popped up was "DEATH PENALTY" ..... NOW I'm scared
