couldn't have been in emails by posting for help from a mentor. If you'll notice on another forum on this website, I've pubically stated that I have mentored more than my share of newbies in the past. BUT, if you are posting entire reports, that would concern me from an MTSO standpoint as a breach of confidentiality even IF the patient's name and doctor's names have been deleted. I can tell it is a teaching/trauma hospital by the discharging service (so you can tell I'm not a newbie).
Also, do you know the people who run this board have to pay for the bandwidth of the posts here, so when you load it up with long reports, it costs them money.
BTW, yes, I've been in every setting possible in the health care industry other than doing procedures and practicing medicine and there wasn't someone there who enabled me and kept me from devloping my research skills. I do think you are now trained like Pavlov's dogs to come here and ask questions rather than do a little research (which could have been helpful especially with a simple word like posttussive)...just do some research first.
Another thought I had was that you might not be working for a service yet but simply doing classwork/homework and if people here are going to do it for you, then how exactly do you feel you've earned your grade (or if employed, your salarly?)
Just making observations and not excuses.

Could it possibly be "Ludwig's angina" -- which can be a complication of oral abscesses. I know that is a stretch from your s/l, but would make sense.
Your question had me googling for about an hour last night -- love to try and figure out things I don't know! if you ever find out the correct word, let us know.
Have a great day.

if it were P0-1, they usually say P zero one, but this dictator is saying P zero TO one, so I wondered about that. I am definitely no OB/GYN expert, though, so I am not sure.

Maybe I have been typing the wrong word for my plastic surgeons for 10 years....they wouldn't tell me anyway if I was incorrect...or rarely would....they always say fluctuant or fluctuance (in wounds and the ilk) - maybe they want flocculent and flocculence..I'm awful confuzzled now but thank you SO MUCH for the definition of that NEW word I learned today, flocculence....
