Subject: H&P heading help again.. Past Medical History

dictator says: Past medical history for hypertension. Past surgical history is arthroscopy of his right knee. Allergies are to Demerol and Penicillin. Do I put Headings over each one and keep the exact dictation like this:  PAST MEDICAL HISTORY (type under this title) Past medical history for hypertension OR just Hypertension. Other part of my question.  ROS subheadings: dictator says this: Cardiovascular has a history of hypertension.  do I need to put a colon in there and cap the Has? or leave as I have typed in bold? Do I add a subheading of GI/GU: for this sentence - No GI/GU problems. Does this sentence also need colon?  Musculoskeletal I stated in the HPI. No neurological or hematological discorders.  Thanks for any help, sorry if these seem like dumb questions...but I really need the help.
