He says it so weird.  I was wondering if anyone ever heard of heparnotic or something similar--I can't find it anywhere.  He has said it before and says it the same way each time.  I'm stumped.

not sure about the first, but the second part may be right
Subject: not sure about the first, but the second part may be right

It is possible he is saying "of five to seven inches" or "site of seven inches" but that still leaves the first part.  If it's the first one it sounds like "muce" or "moose" or "meese".  For the second one it would end in an "a" sound like "meesa site"  It sounds like he's saying "uh" in front of that, like he's thinking.  But maybe it's part of the word "ameesa site" or something like that.  And then again, maybe it's not even an "m".  Could be an "n" or something else.  I feel like I'm getting closer.  I just wish he didn't have to talk so fast!  Actually, you suggested adhesion and I just thought of "adhesive site".  It doesn't sound like an "h" really, but would that make sense?  "a moderate to severe adhesive site of seven inches with the radiation therapy?"  Seven inches!  That's really long.

Subject: I would leave it as he said. He knows what it means...sm

TM stands for appx 20 or more things, so you cannot guess which one. Also,the same goes for LAM. It stands for seven different things and you cannot guess which one.

I was taught in this situation to leave it as said. My account even specifies in assessment and plan to never abbreviate except in this case when you cannot 100% verify what the doc means if there is more than one meaning to the abbreviation.

Hope this helps
