I'm new to this and just learning and I'm not sure where to look to see if these counts seem correct. CBC: RBC 4, WBC 3000. Do these numbers seem reasonable?

Subject: A book: When every key stroke counts. sm

There used to be a book by the above title.  I cannot find it on google.  I have several 1,000 macros, but I know I could do better, because some MTs on my team are smoking me, and I am fast.  Anyone know where I can get that book?

Need help with letter I am typing re platelet counts
Subject: Need help with letter I am typing re platelet counts

The studies demonstrated carotid artery disease but, also, she has a platelet count of 1004 k per cmm and persistent reduction in her hemoglobin and hematocrit at 9.4 and 31.5.


Does anyone know how to format this?  I can't find the K at all in relation to these values, but doc is  clearly saying,  1004 K per cmm.  thank you.

K is abbreviation for thousands; also used as abbreviation for potassium. platelets are expressed in thousands.

I think the 1004 k/cmm should be expressed this way.
