and it does not say the drug has been discontinued. Obviously some physicians are still using it, perhaps under a different name.

For constipation, patient is being prescribed *Senna-lax-S*. My Quick Look Drug Book does not have it at all. Google does have it all over. My Stedman's spellchecker marks it wrong though and wants to change it to Cenalax. Cenalax does not come up on Google anywhere and asks if I meant 'sennalax' instead. OY! Anyone know which is correct? Is my Stedman's spellchecker wrong-o?

Subject: I usually look around the internet for a picture of the bottle sm
If I can SEE the bottle and see how it is written on the actual bottle, then I take that as "gospel." In this case I looked around and had no luck finding a picture of the bottle but did find some pictures of the SennaLax pills. It is my thought that the "S" at the end may indicate syrup. Is this person a child??

Primary care physicians frequently perform lumbar puncture, because cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is an invaluable diagnostic window to the central nervous system (CNS). Commonly performed tests on CSF include protein and glucose levels, cell counts and differential, microscopic examination, and culture. Additional tests such as opening pressure, 'SUPERNATANT COLOR', latex agglutination, and polymerase chain reaction also may be performed. Knowing which tests to order and how to interpret them allows physicians to use CSF as a key diagnostic tool in a variety of diseases.

and before I e-mail my PS, I wanted to see if I was wrong. I researched but seems I was right. I was corrected for using Entero Vu contrast - I was told it is Enteroview. According to Stedman's it is Entero Vu plus I have been Radiology for 10 years and always used this spelling. I was also corrected on using centimeters per second - I use cm/s but was corrected to cm/sec. Any help on these? Thanks!

I want to tell you that Dorland is a little outdated and oldfashiomed.
This is NOT an EXCEPTION, this I can tell you, because I studied Latin.
It is decubitus / decubiti
or
decubitus ulcer / decubitus ulcers.
The OP said that the doctor dictated 'decubiti'. If this is on top of it a 'verbatim' account and she types decubitus, whereas the doctor dictated 'decubiti', then she WILL REALLY BE IN TROUBLE.
IF YOU LIKE IT OR NOT !
And why do you threaten me?
I think you are a QA????
