We checked the hemoglobin which has dropped a little bit since the last visit to 12.8. MCV is 89. Normal platelets. Patient had s/l  lines in the summer. An antibiotic was called in for 21 days. Patient states it did not bother his stomach but it made his heart beat a little bit harder."

We're not on the beach.  We're here to support and try to help one another in our quest to be good transcriptionists.  End of story.  I bet the administrator e-mailed her and told her she is not supposed to ask test questions and does not need you tattling.  It doesn't matter where I stand, I just don't believe in being a squeaky wheel to get attention and be a brown-noser!  I may be wrong, but I don't believe we make gains that way.  Take care....

Those are the closest words to what he says (even though I clearly hear a 'T' sound), but I have no idea if those would go with a diganosis of cryptococcal meningitis.  It really sounds like he is saying de-ser-ti-a, but he is ESL.

correct = nicked (verb: to cut nick into)

onelook.com is a good dictionary source on-line.
Were is correct.
Subject: Were is correct.

As the word remainder represents a portion, the verb to use is determined by the noun in the "of phrase" that follows. In your case, "forms" is plural so use were.

This rule also applies for other "portion" words such as none, all, some, part, etc. Hope this helps.

PS: See 'The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation' by Jane Straus.
