T-U fusion or TU fusion. also, hypocalcemia, yes. see message
Subject: T-U fusion or TU fusion. also, hypocalcemia, yes. see message
found on line:
"On EKG, hypocalcemia may be signified by a lengthening of the ST segment and QT interval"
T-U fusion (from what I can find) is related to hypokalemia rather than hypocalcemia. Might take some searching?
"Other findings associated with hypokalemia include the following: The U wave and T wave merge in some cases to form a T-U wave which may be misdiagnosed as a prolonged QT interval."

Sounds like dictator is saying:
Abdomen: Soft. Flat. Obese. Pressure: Soft. Obese. No point of splenomegaly was noted.
However, it doesn't seem to me that this would fit. He may be saying another heading instead of pressure but it is too jumbled to tell. 
Also this may be: No signs of [something] or splenomegally is noted.
Thanks in advance!
Review of Systems
On Review of Systems, he's saying . . ."@#$#&*&(" : No recent skin rash. and then something else "@#$#$" : No anemia or lymph gland problems. Psychiatric - No recent depression. Can anyone tell me what these headings could possibly be? I can't even get enough to give you a "sounds like".

There is no history of diabetes, polyuria, polydipsia, seizure, stroke, TIA, loss of strength or sensation, or DVT s/l pulmonary mesin around level bleeding.
It might be 'pulmonary embolism' but I might just be wanting to hear that, it's kind of a stretch. But the rest...
Any ideas??? Thanks.
