Why would you do that? Since when do you put a comma in front of 'that', the less in front of 'and that'.
The sentence structure in the second part is wrong, it does not make any sense, so I corrected it in my other post.

especially the drugs are listed categorically. For instance, if you heard a drug but couldn't quite get it but knew it was for (for example) Parkinson's disease, you could look it up under "antiparkinsonian drugs." Drake & Drake has a similar book, XRef.
I'd love to use the Internet more but I can only get dialup in my area and it takes waaaaay too long. Books are faster for me.

WHY would you put a comma before 'narrowing'? This is used as a noun and the word before is its adjective!
And why before 'and?' The sentence after and has no verb on its own.
Do you just 'sprinkle' commas around to make the doctor 'happy?'

Hello! I'm studying to be an MT and seem to be having trouble with punctuation...specifically commas. I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips? Also, I have a sample sentence from a practice dictation if that helps.
She advises that she was referred to the Osteoporosis Center at a nearby hospital where bone densitometry studies were done and a diagnosis of osteoporosis involving the spine was made but without evidence at that time of compression fracture.
I would greatly appreciate the help! Also, since I am taking the course online, I wondered if anyone would be up for helping me as a possible tutor?

If you're having fun with the first one, try this one on for size! lol I swear, this dictation is the toughest one I've had in awhile...as far as commas go.
I advised the patient of this eventuality and that such compression fractures even without trauma not uncommonly are complications of underlying osteoporosis as severe as hers.
I would think that a comma would go before "even" and after "trauma" but I'm not too sure about "uncommonly"? Of course, the way the Doc words that part just sounds odd to me, IMHO.

Something is wrong with this sentence:
I advised the patient of this eventuality and that such compression fractures even without trauma ?not uncommonly are complications?of underlying osteoporosis as severe as hers.
I think it should read as follows...
I advised the patient of this eventuality and that such compression fractures, even without trauma, are not uncommon complications
of underlying osteoporosis as severe as heirs.
I entereed also the 2 commas.
