spelled it that way (I always left a blank in the report ~ he would always "write" it in when he got the report back). This was many, many years ago when I worked in-house. I honestly thought it was a "made-up" word as he was the only doctor who used it (I have never heard it used since), so I was surprised to hear of somebody else stumbling onto the same word (or something similar). By no means did I intend to mean that that was the "correct" spelling or that I used that word ~ I apologize if that is how my message was read. :)

Subject: One thing--O2 is an O, not a zero. O stands for oxygen. sm
So, for #3, it would be either 4 liters of O2, or 4 L O2 (depending on your account specifics--check to see if you should subscript the 2). Make sure that is an O, not a 0. As far as typing F for temperature, check your account specifics. If they do want you to insert Fahrenheit, leave a space before it. If it is not dictated, it may be okay to leave it out. Again, account specifics prevail.
