There are all sorts of very "strange" things in this report but thank you very much for trying. It's a consult and this dictator can't figure out why the consult - she's dictating for someone else, and doesn't even give her name. =:O

They don't always say things exactly right, but that's close enough to know what the dictator meant IMO. It is certainly common to be allergic to a group of antibiotics like that.

Subject: stones are commonly basketed
There is one side of a page in Stedman Equipment word book dedicated to different types of baskets, about half for stones,
Now, if it is an ESWL procedure, the stone could have been "zapped" or "pulsed" by laser, so relisten and compare to the type of procedure being done.

Google on "degenerative disc disease" and "degenerative disk disease". I use "disc" when transcribing for my ortho clinic because, when I got the account and asked for samples, each and every sample on each and every report used "disc". No matter what your research tells you, you will do what the client says, especially when it doesn't really matter. And this does not really matter.

"cc" is a possible future listing in JCAHO "do not use list" sm
Subject: "cc" is a possible future listing in JCAHO "do not use list" sm
JCAHO requires its members to follow an official "do not use list" and "cc" is being considered for possible future inclusion in the JCAHO "do not use list" to be replaced by "mL" because it can be misread as U or unit when poorly WRITTEN...typing it is not as problematic but I go ahead and change it to mL to encourage dictators to make the "mental shift" away from "cc" ...hope that helps! see this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medical_abbreviations

Lab tests done at your office on 08/01/07 indicated a free T4 of 4.36 (0.8 to 1.9), T3 was 390 (72 to 170), and a TSH of less than 0.01. A WBC count was slightly low at 3.5 (3.9 to 11.3), hemoglobin was 12.5, hematocrit 37.6, _____ of 77 (80 to 102).
The blank sounds like LEV-IN AND CBU of 77.
??? any thoughts on what lab value this could be based on the normal range of 80 to 102? thanks.
