this reminded me
Subject: this reminded me
For some reason this reminded of something that happened years ago when I worked at the main switchboard of a large hospital. It was a late one weekend night when there weren't many visitors around but plenty of employees who hear the pages all over the hospital. Well, it was just me and my co-worker covering the phones and some employee got mischevious and called with a request for her to page someone. We had strict rules about paging and you could only page employees overhead unless it was an emergency and then you were only allowed to repeat their name 3 times. You were not allowed to state what phone number for the person to call...just their name. All employees and doctors knew that if they heard their name overhead paged 3 times to call the switchboard immediately for further information. So.......I was on another call and wasn't really paying attention to her call until I heard what she paged. She reached for the intercom and very professionally said, "Anita Mann, Anita Mann, Anita Mann". After the first "Anita Mann" I started waving my arms wildly at her trying to stop her but she turned her back to me so she could finish. We were always trying to make each other laugh when we paged overhead because that was a no-no. We were supposed to sound very dry and professional on overhead pages. She was mad at me thinking I was trying to get her to giggle when in fact I was trying to help her. I could not stop laughing. When she realized what she had done, boy was she mad!!! The phones started lighting up like crazy--all the employees were offering to find her a man. I still get tickled remembering it to this day!

Because I'm smart, that's why. Generous here sm
Subject: Because I'm smart, that's why. Generous here sm
means ample, ample means "of large or great size." I certainly don't think the prostate was giving out presents (another definition of generous). Get a dictionary. You really need one.
You're the one who thinks a generous prostate is a good thing, right? Trying to cover up for your little gaffe by attacking me? (Look that up, too).
To answer your question, yes, I DO know what the doc means here. Run along, now.

For the most part, agree. I don't bother with the lazy-sounding questions, but there are some sm
very reasonable questions posted on this board. No, I don't go to MTChat. Why don't you just hang out there, and those of us who remember what it was like to be new at this can help our novice counterparts on this board.

Subject: follow-up...I've never heard of anything sounding like kempro files before...sm
I can't find anything on it on the internet, so I thought I'd post it on here to see if such a term exists. More than likely, the doc is saying 10 profiles, which I suppose would make sense in reference to a CT scan.

Hi, I'm a semi-new transcriptionist who has had no formal training, and I'm having some problems figuring out a couple spellings. One is a medication called *Inderon* (not sure how to spell). The other is a phrase that I'm not sure what exactly the doctor is saying. It sounds like *bill-raw-2 anastomoses* Thanks SO much for any help!!!

This doctor is slurring bad so I don't even know if my examples will be accurate!! It sounds like she hasn't gone to med school OR general english and doesn't know how to pronounce words. Ugh.
- Glypenitin? Some kind of medication. Don't know what it is for as this patient has many diseases.
- Sounds like "see-ko" syndrome... I think. I can't understand her!! Fecal syndrome? LOL Maybe it's sickle syndrome.. I don't know.
- Sounds like "smith". As in positive ANA, positive SSA and SSB (I can't tell if it's SSA and SSB or just one or the other GRR!!!!), positive RNP, positive __________, positive rheumatoid factor.
I'm going to try to finish this report. Wish me luck. :/
For the fun of it!! Hydroclomibmwlap... I don't expect anyone to look THAT up. ;) That one deserves a big fat blank. Yes, that is the exact way she pronounced it.
Enavaprovolil was actually Enalapril. How horrible is that? LOL javascript:editor_insertHTML('text',' ');
Also, if anyone has a 2x4 so I can go beat this doctor senseless, I'd appreciate it. ;)
