Tongue-tied doc today--humulin N 15 mg s/m
Subject: Tongue-tied doc today--humulin N 15 mg s/m

I've been typing one of my usual docs today, and apparently she's having a bad RX Monday or something.  The latest one s/l Humulin N insulin 15 mg at bedtime.  The bummer for me is that I won't take a chance on a med, so look up stuff I already know.  I hate having to leave QA Markers on those I'm not 100% sure about, but I'd rather waste my time making sure (for the huge bucks I get) than to get it wrong.


Thanks!

British/European pronunciation
Subject: British/European pronunciation

Does the dictator have a British or foreign accent?  Many British doctors pronounce "cephalad" as "Kephalad".  For some reason that's how they learn to pronounce it.  Could be the dictator is using a hard "K" sound for the soft "C" sound.
I bet that's it. It fits, but she botched the pronunciation! Thanks. nm

deviation of the tongue
Subject: deviation of the tongue

I don't have a clue what this doctor is saying.  The patient has a history of ____ malformation with subsequent surgery.  Since surgery, she has had a tongue that deviates to the left.  It was crooked due to muscle atropy and ____.


The blanks sound like "guillare malformation."  It actually sounds like the doctor is saying G-R-E malformation.  At one point the G has a hard sound, but when he says it again he uses a soft G sound (like J).


Thanks for any help.


Tongue of tissue
Subject: Tongue of tissue

Anyone ever heard of a "tongue" of intestinalized tissue.  Pnt has Barret's and is having an EGD and twice I heard what sounds like "tongue" of tissue.


Sentences are -


1.  Preop diagnosis - Tongue of intestinalized tissue extending from the GE junction.


2.  On withdrawing the scope the patient's GE junction was regular with a tongue of pink tissue extending less than 2 cm.


I can't find it.  Thanks.
