Subject: Back exam
While transcribing the back exam, the doctor says what sounds like "no rotation or scoliosis noted." I'm not exactly sure if he is saying "rotation," but would that make sense? I've never heard that used in a back exam before.

Question about eye exam...when everting lids on eye exam (sm)
Subject: Question about eye exam...when everting lids on eye exam (sm)
It is EVERT, not AVERT, right? I have always typed it with an E but I have a PA who keeps insisting it is A. I always thought Avert applied to gaze, as if to look away. Just want to make sure everting the eyelid is the right term. TIA.

It sounds like it might be spondylolisthesis, which would be descriptive of the L5-S1 joint; where as anterolisthesis refers to a subluxation of one vertebral body upon another would be stated as "there is anterolisthesis of L5 on S1"

I have never had so many questions and this is the same doctor I have always worked for. the patient has an actinic keratosis behind the ear along the hairline ove the "occioitent". He is not saying occipital...is it possible he is making this up?

CC: Back pain
Subject: CC: Back pain
Thanks for taking the time on this . . .
While the CC: is back pain, the subjective describes . . .
This is an 81-year-old female who, for the last month, has had some intermittent pain next to her right shoulder blade. She is right-handed, and she has been doing a lot of gardening and weed whacking. It does not bother her much during the day, but at night when she sits, and then when she is lying in bed at night, she feels what she describes as a muscle spasm with twinges. She also at times has some diffuse pain from her elbow radiating up to her neck when she “overdoes it”, but that has been going on for quite some time, and she does not feel like that has recently changed.
thanks, I thought of that and went back
Subject: thanks, I thought of that and went back
and listened again, but he is definitely saying AS or AZ-vair, or something like that. To complicate matters, I'm having problems with the tape not playing correctly in that spot..it keeps stopping and slowing down,etc. I think the tape is just bad.

Thanks all!

Since that time, she has had increasing low back pain. She did do the s/l-Ergosco- method. She had no relief. She did have an injection to her SI joint region, which had a terrible reaction. Since that time, she has had low back pain.

MT only said patient has sinus problems . .no more than that . . doc probably did an ear exam and found cerumen, but MT did not specify . . IF it is cerumen it COULD be unrelated to the sinus problem, and I certainly did not mean the cerumen was in the nose ! I have gone through the endoscopic procedures in the sinuses as I have many times with removal of earwax impactions, my flareups do occur hand-in-hand . . sorry you all feel so hostile about it . . you all certainly don't need my help.
