Doc has done electrodiagnostic testing and and finds no evidence of "any systemic process affecting the peripheral nerves of either an axonal or S/L 'domalodine'-type involving either the motor or sensory nerves." 


TIA for your suggestions!

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.

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!!!!

Vanderbilt University in relationship to Troubleshooting PICC problems, in particular; "My patient's arm is red, swollen, and/or painful."
A. How does the arm look in comparison to the arm without a PICC line.
B. If redness is involved, is it a red streak up the arm along the vein tract.
C. If swelling is involved, what is the difference in the girth of the two arms.

Your sound-alike brings to my mind: gorge; as engorged. Definition: gorge, glut; especially: to fill with blood to the point of congestion. Just an educated guess though. Good luck.

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?

In med list, doc states Carbetrol 900 mg q. h.s.


There is no mention of seizures, but there is mention of back pain and I noticed that Carbetrol can come in 300 mg tablets, and that it can also be used for trigeminal neuralgia, which there is no mention of either. This is an ESL, so it is posisble that I am not hearing right, but it was never mentioned again. Past medical history is bipolar, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and gastritis. Thank you!

Subject: Just my opinion, but

I type verbatim, so if the doc dictates of I put it that way, if not, I don't, but have seen QA do this to me many times. To me this is so insignificant and it does not critically change the patient's care in any way, I just let it go. Some of my QA people change it, some don't, wish they'd be consistent, but I really don't worry about it.

But I would think that the sentence would probably be:


"Heart size and epsilons are normal."


Can you hear the "and" if you listen real carefully?


Epsilons are not related to the heart size per se.  They're waves that can be seen on an EKG.
