Subject: Can you hear freeze in that second s/l at all?
Liquid nitrogen 'freezes,' and I think your second s/l probably has the word freeze in it somehow, but I just can't quite figure out the ending. I'm stumped by your first s/l but still working on it.

I can't remember how long it took me to be able to type at a 1:2 ratio since I have been doing this for about 15 years. However, I do know that it took me longer than 3 to 4 months, especially since I was looking everything up in reference books to double check my spelling as I didn't go to school for medical transcription. Maybe someone else has a better idea. I DO remember being frustrated that it was taking me so long to finish a tape (back when I did tapes, LOL!).

when new at it. You new MTs are at a disadvantage for not having someone physically standing over your shoulders mentoring you. We did back in the old days, even if we had to grab a doc for help. Help was always there.
Help is now HERE! Any newbie requesting my help is going to get the best advice I can give. If MT Stars doesn't like this help I'm offering, I'm sure they will let me know, and maybe I can start a blog or something somewhere else.

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.

it is a drug used for a person to regain their appetite, used in people with wasting syndrome as in AIDS and also cancer patients. It starts with an M... the reason why I am trying to find out is a friend's husband has esophageal cancer, lost a lot of weight and if and when he can resume any kind of appetite, would like to have her ask his physician about this. I have had 2 people ask their physician for this in the past, my stepmom for 1 who was unable to eat. Thanks if anyone able to help me on this.

Subject: I don't remember where I learned it, but...
I like using the first two letters of each word in word pairs, like refa = respiratory failure. If I have other word pairs that have the same letters, I add the last letter twice (or more), like refaa = renal failure. If there was a third word pair, it would be refaaa. This would not work for some people, but it's very fast for me. I also double the last letter when the shortcut would be a real word otherwise, like poree (instead of pore) for posterior region. With this system (and looking at your cheat window at the bottom), you can keep adding on other phrases. If I use acfr for acute fracture, I might use acfrd for acute fracture or dislocation.
That's my main trick, but there are lots others I use. I do add individual words to my expander (especially long words) with no shortcuts so I can start to type and find the word in my screen to just plop the rest in automatically (sorta like how AutoText works).
A lot of what makes sense to you will not make sense to someone else. You just need to find what works for you. Keep trying things out because it can't hurt to keep adding or changing. Not even one day goes by without me adding lots of new entries. The key is to always be looking for ways to type fewer strokes.

Subject: The way I remember is that dilation is the act of being...sm
dilated, dilation and curettage, dilation of the bladder, dilation of the cervical os, etc. Dilatation is the state of being dilated after dilation takes place. I see that they are used interchangeably these days, but this is how I learned to differentiate between the 2 many years ago. An example of the proper way to use dilatation would be, the small bowel obstruction resulted in dilatation of the proximal small bowel. Most times, dilation is what you are looking for.
