trouble with the English language, to say nothing of the medical language. His (I'm assuming he's male) questions are very confusing. See above. It's scary.

Subject: Lots of Detail for Lots of Help!
Okay, I'm transcribing a SOAP note and this word that I'm trying to figure out is under the ASSESSMENT AND PLAN part. She says the word three times and I am now thinking she is saying something like "number next or number next is." What do you think?
(Normonaxis) Anemia may be caused from a recent epistaxis. He will start an iron pill daily over the counter called Fergon. Next visit we will check a hemoglobin, iron studies. (Normonax) He was in for right shoulder pain in the past. This was resolved. (Normonax) Recent qualm was treated with doxycycline.
Also, I was told to transcribe this using a straight SOAP format, but the doctor dictates things like "Review of Systems" and "Exam." I didn't think those headings or subheadings were in a SOAP format. She never dictates "Subjective" or "Objective," only "Assessment And Plan" as one heading towards the end of the report. Any advice?
But I have seen one person in particular
who asks word after word that could easily be looked up. You can tell by the rest of the sentence and the s/l. I don't mind helping newbies; in fact, I enjoy it; but give me a break. Do some of the research yourselves, guys.

as some accounts are not able to process certain symbols. If you were able to do it the usual, correct way, it would be m with a superscripted 2 (no spaces, no periods). Some accounts I've done in the past have requested it written out as you have it. Best to check with your QA.

must be brand new to QA....my QA person would definitely know that cold agglutinin has to do with blood and not the spine...IMHO..and wouldn't make those *most diabetics have hypertension* types of blanket statements and my QA person is up there in years of experience......and work ethics.
Who knows - anyone can be anything on this medium we call the web.
Take it all with a HUGE grain of salt, and believe half of what you see and nothing of what you hear in the life. For all we know, the poster could be a troll. Again, we don't know that yet - we'd have to take a *wait and watch* attitude.

In French, the term *cul-de-sac* means bottom of the bag (no, it doesn't mean *dead-end street*), bottom of the sack, to us, in English.
So, I'm thinking perhaps a person of French descent might have instructed you on that and in France/French-speaking countries, it would be correct, sac = sack; however, not here if used as a container to place something in that is not body-part related.
