In social history, an ESL says the patient uses cocaine and X. Would the patient have called ecstasy just "X" or is that a name for that or some other drug that I haven't come across? Something new?

Confused MT Student
Subject: Confused MT Student

Okay I am just about 80% done with my MT course that I am taking on line and have come up against something very confusing to me.  I thought I would ask about it here since my school (this is another story) does not give much feedback at all to my questions.  Is it ALWAYS standard to put headings i.e. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS, REVIEW OF SYSTEMS, etc. when not dictated in a History and Physical Exam report?  I have been marked off for not doing this in the past on this particular report and now I am about to submit one for grading and the whole report is dictated without headings.  The vital signs are also separate from the PHYSICAL EXAM section and that section is worded in sentence form.  I am nervous about submitting it and getting marked wrong again.  Any advice??

    Hello!  I need some help for a foreign acquaintance of mine.  He's from the Ukraine, or thereabouts, and has been having memory problems.  His doctor discussed some meds with him, but he can't remember what they were, and now he's too embarassed to ask about them again!!??  I told him I'd see if we could get a list together, in the hopes that one (or more) of them would jump off the page at him, and he'd remember what he and his Dr. discussed.  Help me!
