Subject: I just re-read your question regarding "inch" and realized
I just noticed that you didn't say the doc dictated inch. You asked if 3/8 could be referring to anything other than inch and I totally misread that.
The answer is yes - 3/8 could be referring to a cm measurement. Sorry I misunderstood.
But since you were unsure, you did the right thing in QA'g :)

I forgot to put in commas. Some tenderness over the left trapezius muscle, over the suprascapula, radius, and also over the posterior axillary muscles.
Is that better? Thanks for your input. I think I wil leave it as radius. What do you think about taking off the "r" on suprascapular?

overread vs over-read vs over read
Subject: overread vs over-read vs over read
OneLook has a disclaimer for the definition of the word overread that says: This definition is from the 1913 Webster's Dictionary and may be outdated. Some of the links listed on OneLook give the definition, some say the word does not exist, another gives the definition and then says (not used). There are references online for over-read, overread, and over read. I think over-read with a hyphen is a nice compromise. It's situations like this that make me dazed and confused!

This Word board is for assistance.
If you don't want to assist or be helpful with information, direction, guidance, then simply do not post.
Stop with the rudeness, the hatefulness, the judgement.
If you want to report a suspicious post for test questions or offshore MT, etc., please do so but stop being ugly ON the board.

Is Fosamax given weekly or daily? I left a QA marker because when I look up Fosamax, it is given weekly, but the doc said 70 mg daily, so I left a blank. The QA person left it as daily. Would this be correct - Fosamax 70 mg daily?

Subject: Read the TOS for the board
It states that this board is not designed to be a place to get unlimited advice. It is here to foster dicussion. My opinion is people tend to use this site as a crutch because they lack maturity or motivation or just don't care to experience the pleasaure of researching and making discoveries that will benefit them for life.

I have deleted and banned several offshore posters from using this website, the Word board in particular. I will try to watch closely for offshore posters as we do not allow them to post here. Your help is appreciated if you suspect such.
Reminder: We do not allow test questions to be posted. As I am observing this board closely, I will delete any posts that seem to be following test format. Changing your moniker will not make a difference -- I can still see who you are!

you would have realized it was not criticism about not spelling something right, but about putting in a S/L question and someone not reading it correctly and saying she was not a mind reader. It was rude and uncalled for. Constructive criticism can be posted in a nice way, where it does not feel like criticism to the poster. No one has to be rude to get a point across. just my opinion.

This is an American doctor but I have never heard it pronounced this way. Every instance he is pronouncing it "yur-e-kel".
"...referred for evaluation of a yur-e-kel anomaly"
"...consistent with a residual yur-e-kel sinus"
"...any yur-e-kel fistula"
Is it ureteral or urethral?
TIA!!
