Hypo, hyper, macro, micro
I'm a long-time MT and I still have a problem telling hypo from hyper, hypothyroid from hyperthyroid, macro from micro, etc....unless it's very obvious from the content of the dictation which is a lot of times isn't. Another difficulty is the lab values...it's hard to tell 15 or 50, 20 from 30. I leave blanks and then I see where QA fills them in. So, I don't know if my hearing is getting bad or if they or just guessing. Or, they may have access to othe lab values from previous dictation. So I'm just wondering if this is a common problem with other MT's. Maybe I need to have my hearing checked.

SKIN: Lots of seborrheic keratoses. He does have an elevated 9 mm papule on left side of the face, which has some vascularization and central core.

s/l: Dermatified (or dromatified) broma right shin. She uses this phrase in a previous sentence:
On his right shin he has superficial change that appears like a dermatified broma; however, it is not as nodular beneath the shin, but it is definitely excoriated or irritated on the surface.
I just cannot find any info on these two - sorry this is so long. I am covering for someone and would prefer not to send to the editor!! TIA

I wrote this one down -- cross-referencing in both "c" and "s"
Browsing this morning, I read original post and thought I had had "servant" as "cervatte" or something before -- looked up a couple different spellings, and could not find, so figured I must have been wrong and moved on. However, this one would have bugged me enough I would have spent more time searching later...
Glad you posted the correct answer.
