Of course, the first dictator I get today has to be *thee* worst one in the clinic... at least with my experience. I'm training and I do not want to have another blank against me.

If the "times" comes before the number use the x (no space). If the "times" comes after use the word.

Subject: don't know if there is a rule but....
I think if you would substitute "bilateral" (mentally) and say "both" you might have a better idea how to say it. Like would it sound better iff you said "both hand" or "both hands." To me bilateral hands sounds better. But again, I don't know if there is actually a rule. I looked for an answer in "style Guide for Medical Transcription" (Tessier and Pitman) and couldn't find an answer.
I think if you wrote what the doctor said ....you can't go wrong there either. Good luck!.
