Thanks for all the input. It is helpful to get opinions from other MTs with more experience. I really love coming here for advice and trying to give some if I can.

Medication dosages, QA marking wrong both ways!
Subject: Medication dosages, QA marking wrong both ways!
Good afternoon everyone. I'm in need of some second opinions please. When typing medication dosages, I have always transcribed them the same way for the last 12-1/2 years. For example, Lortab 5 mg q.4h. p.r.n. pain.
I have worked for the same company for a little over two years now and have never had QA say anything about this until last month, when I got a QA audit marking it off and changing it to Lortab 5 mg q. 4h. p.r.n. (with a space between the q. and the 4h.) I thought okay, maybe I've been transcribing it incorrectly all lthis time and a new QA person picked up on it. It happens, no big deal. 
So, I started transcribing it their way with the space, as in q. 4h. and didn't think anything more about it. Yesterday, I get another audit. This time, I get dinged for typing it the way they wanted it the last audit q. 4h. with the space with a note stating it should be q.4h. with no space (the way I had been typing it).
 Now, I know they have been messing with all of the MTs big time lately, making changes daily from everything to hours, pay, policies, and procedures for vacation, days off, etc. You name it, they've been doing it, and I really think they are trying to either find a reason to fire some of us or drive us to the point of insanity until we quit, but despite the games, I still want to make sure I'm doing my job correctly. If I've been doing something wrong, I would like to correct it ASAP, except now I have no idea which one is correct.
Sorry for the long, drawn out post, but I'm totally confused now and beyond frustrated. Now, I'm questioning myself on everything, and I have no idea which way is correct as far the space or no space with the medication dosages. Thank you for taking the time to read my question and rant. I would appreciate any and all opinions on how you all transcribe this!

rollerball. Googled roll ball and roller-ball comes up. My Surgical Word Book has rollerball endometrial ablation but the doc is clearly saying ROLL BALL. She is saying is very slowly and precise. This drives me nuts.

If you happen to find out what this word is, please post it. Usually, if the wordd exists or anything close to it...I can find it. My brother is a physician and he also has no idea what the word could be based on what you say it sounds like.

I can only find "Wise" anywhere I have looked or searched. The doctor spells it as "Wyse" but I am not sure that is correct. Did you find it written somewhere? I want to be absolutely sure I am right before going against his spelling.

I'm not ortho, but I do ortho every now and then as a secondary. I looked this up all over the place for you (Stedman's books and the Internet) and I just couldn't get it. I spent a good 20 minutes on this earlier today and just couldn't find anything. I tried!!!!

Looked up Bertin and Vertin on my drug finder site and found neither. If googling does not produce, you just may need to flag it. Wish I could be of more help, trose.

I am thoroughly confused on this! I have searched through everything, and find Micafungin. I can't figure out why, even though he pronounced it "mico", QA would change it to Micofungin. The dictator was discussing the meds he was using (ID). Any ideas?

Prentiss maneuver. I do think that's what the surgeon means, but I think he's making it up that the bands are called Prentiss. I saw other named bands, but not Prentiss. But for all we know it could be a doctor-speak that is gaining popularity. In other words, if it's clear, I'd give it to him.
