That's the closest I could come to your s/l. There are blast cells, but I couldn't find that combined with anything like muco. There are platinum-based treatments, but I can't tell from your partial sentence whether it could be that.

Subject: It's a company based out of Louisville, KY
It is individually owned but has been in operation for years. Has contracts all over the US. Is US based. IC. I hesitate to give the name of the company because she is reorganizing under a different name. I looked yesterday on the internet and she does not have a website up and going yet under the new name. Thanks for the good feedback! I like my job and enjoy working for them. Gives me the opportunity to work from home, be a stay-at-home mom and homeschool my two children as well! I think I have the best situation in the world!!!!

Subject: hyphens...gait is broad-based?
I am drawing brain farts with hyphens lately. Just looked at Dr. Grammar. Still no help. I know that before a noun, two or more adjectives are hyphenated, as in broad-based gait. But what about gait is broad-based. ? Are there new rules on hyphenation? Do we always hyphenate heel-to-shin and the like?

how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!

I've had to do this........
Subject: I've had to do this........
Go to the beginning of the sentence at #1, right click, click on decrease indent and this will put you at the left margin. You can then put (a) manually under the beginning of the sentence and space over 2, then starting typing. Hit enter and put in (b). I know when you hit "b" it will move over. Before moving on, go back to "a", right click, bullets and numbering, customize, go to "aligned at" and make it 0.5. This will align everything where you want it. When you start "c", it will be at the left margin but go ahead and finish a,b,c,d, however long. When finished, highlight this, right click, bullets and numbering, find the box starting with "c" and click it. It will line everything up. From then on,when you type #2, it will line itself up. I hope this isn't too confusing.
