Hypothyroidism. Last s/l fee her s/l cytes were slightly elevated. We will check a repeat TSH today

I know it is confusing:)

That's just what it sounds like. Unfortunately. Thank you for helping.

I'm no expert but if one observes posters.....you see how many people thank someone for something on the board(s).  You look for *patterns*......

I also had the pleasure of meeting webmasters/mistresses (people who own/run websites) when I first got online so I learned it from the inside out a bit. 

Be careful online, I will say that....and that boards are notorious for hit-and-run types of posters.  Let me add that the administrator and moderators here keep it together better than most websites I have experienced back in those days!! 

And people like me.....watch and observe, and I'm not a webmaster/mistress by any stretch of the imagination.  You'll catch on rather quickly might I add......everyone eventually does. 

Best luck!! 

"a number 2 number 45 K-wires used..."

I found where people are saying it should be .045 K-wire, but what about the #2? That is exactally how doc states them. (.002 vs .02 ??)

Thanks for any help... I know it is Super Bowl Sunday and we should all be having margaritas right now!

Oh my god, all of a sudden I have had a brain dump.  Is it allergy to "sulfur"??

So sorry, it's been a long week.  For some reason I want to type sulfa.

I just pasted it on as she dictated it.  No idea what it means or where to use punctuation, etc.  Not sure I'm even hearing it correctly.  She barely speaks English.  Any help is appreciated.  I don't normally do this doc.  Thanks!

Lispro insulin 10 for her regular insulin on a sliding scale t.i.d.

Please excuse if this is a simple question, but I cannot verify this:

She was recently found to have **interQ-waves** and the computer suggested possible inferior MI on 05/30/06 EKG. She notes easy fatigue and DOE with almost any activity, but denies orthopnea, PND, or angina.

PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Reduced CEA, HBP, obese, 35% bilateral carotid disease 2003.

Thank you. This doctor slangs a lot, if that helps any

He has had quadruple bypass in 1994 and femoral artery bypass in 1999 with carotid artery  CLEAN OUTS and OJEERS as well. 

This does not make sense to me, so any advice appreciated! The pt is seen for chest pain. It is the "ST segment, plane, or depression" that is throwing me off. Could he be saying something other than plane that I am missing? Thanks again!

I have told him at this time, based on the duration of his exercise and no definite ST segment, plane, or depression, that he is in a relatively good prognosis category.

Doc is saying the patient had S/L "cord-atendony" rupture needing open heart surgery to repair that.

Thanks for any help! 

CABG 1998 and s/l CVAA SPVD status post right lower extremity amputation and hypertension < your statement.

What I think:

CABG 1998 and CVA (cerebrovascular accident), PVD (peripheral vascular disease) status psot right lower extremity amputation and hypertension.... 

Could this be it?    

Status post CABG 10 to 5.

How do I write the 10 to 5?  10-5, 10.0-5.0? 

Thanks for any help. 

Cardiac:  RRR.  I am unable to ausculatate a murmur at this time.  I tried s/l vervopular maneuvers.  Thanks

The patient has a history for sudden cardiac death status post AICD placement.  It sounds like he is saying death, but I don't think that makes sense as the patient is still alive ???? Definitely not talking about family history.

The patient is currently admitted ale monitor bed in deecee setting.

Once clinical ree pie status stable, na na no dicharge plan gun be der. 

This is from an Equilibrium Radionuclide Angiogram.  Not sure what doc is talking about or how to type this:

There was apical anteroapical apical inferoapical akinesis. 

Sounds crazy to me!  This is my first ERA so I am a little lost.  Not even sure these are spelled correctly!  Thanks! 

Pnt suffered inferior MI ... underwent percutaneous coronary vessel s/l " with sum of division times 2 "   ???

underwent percutaneous coronary vessel  s/l  "sum of division times 2" in the right coronary artery ( s/l strugglers and stents).   Thanks this is my first day on this account. 

Doc is saying:

The skin was consistent with s/l "ana lese" single vessel coronary disease. 

Can't figure out what he is saying!!  Please help! 

Results of an exercise sestamibi stress test.....A long (s/l membrative septum) with attenuation artifact over the apex was appreciated.
