The doctor mentions the patient has a thyroid nodule with benign renal biopsy. Why would it be a renal biopsy? I am not familiar with the association between the two or perhaps I am just not hearing it correctly. Feedback from anyone?

Is there a word that sounds like retina or another definition for retina I am not aware of? Here is the part of the note "She is reassured that the nodule on her chest wall is benign. I did ask her to monitor it for any changes in size or retina."

Gee, ya think? You should see some of the stuff
I don't know who they got working there sometimes. So much conflicting stuff it's unreal. I call them on it every time though and send it to my super. It's hard enough without the conflicting feedback.
Example:
Dictator said HPI (for a heading), so I typed it HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS. I get QA feedback that says, "If the dictator dictates the header as HPI, type it in as HPI." So I'm like okey dokey.Next time I get HPI I do just that. Then I get a nasty note. NEVER, EVER abbreviate in the headers, always spell it out. I'm like geeesh!
One told me to type out 2:00 O'clock (for position, i.e., cornea).
