In current med list, the doctor states what sounds like "Celexa 200 mg daily" Since the doc already listed Celexa 20 mg daily earlier in the list, I would guess that she's not just misreading the 20 mg into 200... But my brain is so stuck on that it sounds like Celexa (even though I know it's not) that I can't hear anything else.

If it helps any, patient has GERD, PTSD, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, glucose intolerance, and hypertension.

Hmmm. He's not saying "denudations" by any chance? sm
Subject: Hmmm. He's not saying "denudations" by any chance? sm

I'm thinking it might read:

Denudations x3, right second and fifth DIPJ, and right hallux.

I could be way off. I don't know what nucleations could be unless he has his own meaning for the term. Denudations would make sense if the patient had injured his foot (degloving) or if it were ulcers denuding the epithelium.

You can always just leave it and flag it "as dictated." That would cover you.

Wish I could be of more help.
