This is not an account where I have any editorial leeway. The doctor states, "She was evaluated by an orthopedist, who kind of poo-poo'ed the patient's complaints and apparently did not do an x-ray exam."
Opinions on how to spell "poo-poo'ed?" 
Thanks!

I would either call tech support for Sony, I was trying to google and troubleshoot that way, but couldn't find anything, or find an office repair shop in your area as some of them still fix those machines, that way you don't have to go out and buy one. Or if you have work you have to do now, I have had to go out and get one in an emergency just to finish the work while I got mine repaired, then had a back-up machine. They really don't make a good machine anymore and they break down frequently, in my opinion. I don't know how long you have had yours or how many hours a day you're on it, but it might be time to replace it. Sorry, I wish I had a clear-cut solution to tell you. It's so frustrating when our equipment fails us and we have so much work to get done.

Quick Look Electronic Drug Reference. You can get it from a lot of places. I saw it on stedmans.com and amazon.com just to name a couple. I saw it on walmart.com bundled with the paperback. I don't have the book, just the CD, so I can't say anything about that, but it would probably be nice to have. The CD has helped me a lot. I just discovered recently the "sounds like" feature on searching where you can type in how the drug name sounds with a tilde (~) at the end and it will give a list of close matching drugs. That's the best!

A search tip for all
Subject: A search tip for all
I am not a "certified" medical transcriptionist and I am new to this field of work. However, I take pride in my work. I work for a transcription service locally. One of the best things I learned from my administrator is to use Google as my search engine. If you are not sure what you are hearing, you can type what it sounds like. If Google does not find an exact match it will ask "Do you mean __________?" (and it fills in what it might be) 98-99% of the time. I usually resolve the question within a minute or two. This has helped be TREMENDOUSLY. My intention is not to brag; my first attempts were horrible, but my administrator gave me a few suggestions and I took it from there. I just want to share something that has helped me so much as an MT. My administrator has told me that is is a pleasure to open up my work to proof. She has had several "experienced MTs" do some work that wasn't as good as mine turned out and I have only been doing this for less than a year. I also did some research on the internet. I found a site that is an Online Medical Transcription Course that I use as a tool. There is a lot of information there that helped me also. The site is: http://mttutorial.blogspot.com/
