I do not have answer to your question if there is another kind of tremor that starts with a D, sorry. I was just correcting the terminology already used. Thanks for your patience :)
chrysinoid?
Subject: chrysinoid?
I can't find this word anywhere yet. Does anyone know what this means? Here is how it is used: Skin: With chrysinoid appearance. I found something close to this saying it was a gray-blue appearance, but not chrysinoid.

My friend is trying to find out what this might mean on a death certificate from 1926:
Does anyone know what J.B.C. on a 1920's death certificate might mean, the deceased was a 21 year old woman. I've looked on the archaic medical diagnosis site.
The death certificate says "cause of death: JBC" and "What tests confirmed diagnosis? JBC."
Thanks everyone!

I've been wracking my brain all morning since you asked this - my friend, not accessible at the moment, has this type of cancer...it is something I had never heard of before which is WHY I cannot currently remember.....sounds like cerrocellular or something like that - it's a definite C she told me and not serocellular.....but I'm not spelling it right. So sorry, wish I could have helped.
I'm going to see her later - will get back on this...but it's too late for your MT work, I am sure :(

by QA on one account, because she had addressed this before with the company and account, pussy would be changed to pus-like when dictated. But, I would check with your account specs or manager, as they may not want anything changed at all. Per Bos, page 340, adjective is pus-like, i.e., The wound was filled with pus-like fluid. HTH.

But my Stedman's disagreed (LOL) . . . intertrigonal is what netscape said "did you mean . . ." when I googled, and I actually went with intertriginous, which is what came up in the archives here when I asked the question, and Stedman's liked that too (although the PA did say "al" v. "ous".

Subject: 1 or 2 (I was told this during training)
I was told when I was training at one point WITH MedQuist (when I was still on full QA) to use the numbers 1 and 2 and not the Roman numerals. I hope that helps. It might very well be a matter of preference for the account you are working on, but I believe the numbers 1 and 2 are correct.

but someone else may have a different opinion. If the account I am doing is not verbatim then I transcribe current temperature and maximum temperature because I consider those terms to be slang. Again, others may have different opinions but I haven't had any complaints.

what to do with trademark names. Now, I had a Coda balloon, trademark name, in the report also, it was Coda, not all caps. So, I am really, really confused.
I have to send the report in because I have other blanks. I am going to leave this word all caps, and when QA checks it, I will see if they change it or not.
Thanks everyone for the help.

Subject: We have been told it is CPAP, however
I have a doctor physicially go into a report and change what I had transcribed to C-pap, so each doctor wants things his way. With a hyphen does not change the meaning and if a doc wants things certain ways and it is verbatim, the you almost always have to go with the doc unless it is totally wrong. I would refer it to my supervisor.

but I think each hospital/client has a preference. I am going to be doing a different account where I work and now they want the dates as 6/30/2006. Go figure. They are trying to make us all crazy.
Are you working on your own or for a company? I would find out what the preference is if it is a company.

Subject: told perhaps by a french person?..sm
In French, the term *cul-de-sac* means bottom of the bag (no, it doesn't mean *dead-end street*), bottom of the sack, to us, in English.
So, I'm thinking perhaps a person of French descent might have instructed you on that and in France/French-speaking countries, it would be correct, sac = sack; however, not here if used as a container to place something in that is not body-part related.
