I don't mean to be hateful at all, see my previous post. Reading her sentence I knew immediately that the word she was looking for was trachelectomy. Please, please, please research your words. Please learn that "tonsillectomy" is never under any circumstances used in any OB/GYN surgery. Notice the patient was "post hysterectomy"...there's your clue....OB/GYN.

Outdated
Subject: Outdated
Actually, the doctor is not correct. He said retarded not mentally retarded which is derogatory and politically incorrect. While mental retardation used to be the accepted medical term it no longer is. The correct term is developmentally delayed. Unfortunately, if doctors want to sound like stupid, ignorant (insert expletives) we are forced to assist them by typing what they say.
I do see one exception though that's minor that I got yesterday. A person is not defined by their illness or disability. That's why you shouldn't call someone a diabetic patient or an autistic kid. It should be the patient has diabetes or the child has autism. So yesterday when I had an ignorant doctor state "this is a Down's Syndrome patient" I rearranged the sentence which we are allowed to do under some circumstances and made it read "this is a patient with Down's Syndrome." And he can kiss my grits if he don't like it!

cozar, hydrocortothisod, nervask, topolol, pravocol, aresapainia
I think you might consider Cozaar, hydrocortisone, Norvasc, Toprol (or is the dictator saying metoprolol), Pravachol, Aranesp.
The Quick Look Drug Book I found to be the best when all I had were books to look up things. You can try www.rx.com and www.drugs.com or www.medilexicon.com
Good luck!!!

Just because they pronounce badly, depend on your drug reference resources. You have to ignore the bad pronunciation and rely on your resource materials. It is amantadine just as it says in your drug book

I had checked my drug book as well as an online reference and did a Google search. However, I often find that some medications are not in my reference materials and I found spelling for both ways with the Google search. (Posters often misspell things when posting on the internet). When I looked up what amantadine was used for, I found that it was an antiviral agent for Influenza or viral infection. This is not what it was being prescribed for, so I thought just maybe there could be such a drug that sounded similar. It wouldn't be the first time I have run into this. Thanks for you input.
