Patient has sacral fracture.

Medications: Cozaar 50 mg p.o. b.i.d.; Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.h.s.; Lexapro 20 mg p.o. q.a.m. (prescribed by psychiatrist Dr. Laakso); Fosamax 70 mg p.o. q. week; Sinemet 25/100 q.2 h; Sinemet R at bedtime (could not find Sinemet R, but that's what he says).

New to pain clinic tx - does this sound right.
Subject: New to pain clinic tx - does this sound right.

The examination of the cervical spine showed limited extension, which is painful, as well as limited lateral rotation, which is also painful. Flexion is very limited due to pain.

s/l Axillary is positive at approximately C5 on the right in the cervical paraspinous region.

It isn't very clear and really sounds more like axilony (does not s/l he's saying axial nerve). Axillary is the only thing that makes sense to me. Does anyone know if there's another possibility? Thanks :)

Hello all!  I have been asked to fill if for a pelvic pain clinic this week so this might not be the last time I'll have to ask for help since I'm not used to this terminology!


Here is the question - on an endometrial biopsy:


Cervix ___ with tenaculum.  Swabbed with Betadine.  Sounded to the depths of 10 centimeters.  Good specimen obtained.


 


At first I though he was saying "washed" but then looked up tenaculum and that appears to be a scissor-type instrument that is used for stretching so I don't think that is the right word.  Thanks for the help!
