Hi,
My QA person marked only 7 items tramscribed wrong--don't know how that could be, but I'm not gonna' argue with her, lol.
Two of the dictators were ESL's, which didn't help matters. But it turns out that my 3rd was an absolute dreaaaaam boat of a dictator, almost made me want to tough it out and do more ops...probably NOT.
Thanks for all your attempts to help and give support regardless.

Sentence reads:
Smear was reviewed and showed macrocytes, occasional macrocytic cells, but not hyperchromic, occasional basophilic stippling, a few polys with 4-5 lobes but none with more than 5 lobes and less than 20% has 5 lobes, no granulation of her polys, no S/L Pelletier-Hewett cells?
She is talking like her pants are on fire, so it is hard to decipher any of this...

The patient was referred for a left thyroidectomy which showed benign, hyperplastic follicular nodules, s/l mild field of focali, moderate chronic thyroiditis with focal Hurthle cell metaplasia consistent with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Does the mild field of focali make sense?? He is difficult to understand. Thank you in advance.

I just want to be sure about whether since she specified it is left side only that extensor hallucis "is" and not extensor hallucis "are". If she said bilateral then it would read extensor hallucis are 4+/5 -- am I getting that part correct? TIA
To be clear?
Subject: To be clear?
Hallucis IS.......halluces ARE. You will know when she is talking about a different side or bilateral. Don't over-think your dictator, okay? I'm thinking you may be new (I hope) and these things will become more clear as you go.
I know you're trying to get it perfect, but she knows what she's doing with the foot/feet. :)

I would leave a blank, although it is probably hypocoagulable (my Stedman's oncology book has this word) and we used it in the lab, such as defective clotting with factor deficiences such as hemophilia, von Willebrand (which heavy menstrual flow can be a sign), low platelet count, ITP, liver disorders that affect vitamin K production, etc. But it's really hard to say without knowing more about this patient because, if I can explain this right, there are conditions or situations that can cause hypercoagulable states that then use up all the clotting factors, etc., and then cause bleeding. So really need to know more on what the patient's other symptoms, family history, etc. to be sure on something like this when you can't hear for sure, I think anyway. Sorry for the long essay here, used to be one of my areas of interest a long time ago. Once worked up a lady who had heavy, heavy vaginal bleeding after childbirth, was in really bad DIC, docs had a heck of a time saving her. You can google on some of this if you're interested.

There is no evidence for ureteral obstruction. He may be a candidate for a minimal invasive therapy such as T1T or even laser prostatectomy.

in what they were asking, like perhaps given the whole sentence. I assumed they were asking about a possessive but it could also be seen as asking about a pleural.

he is spelling it out exactly like this "vobenzin", or could be "zobenzim"; and, "artron". Definitely not Benzig and artane. No mention of Parkinson's disease which Artane is used for, and doc is clearly not saying Artane. I went to rxlist on Internet and nothing came up either!

i'm not questioning whether to hypen or use the word "and". What I'm questioning is can you use 2 different measurement systems for the same measurement - isn't the 3/8 referring to an inch? how do you have 157 cm and 3/8 of an inch?

He definitely says Levoryl (now that I know how to spell it). :) When I do a google search on Levoryl, there are only two pages that come up. I can't find it in RxList.com. Is it an old drug that doesn't exist anymore?
