Perhaps that poster was in the middle of a report.......so one wants the answer ASAP...but for years I mistyped Mohs....thought it was MOHS.....you know, like a flap in surgery.....and alot of them are all caps.....then my friend had to have Mohs surgery and I learned. The great thing about MT'g is that we are continually learning new things.

it would seem that the question was asked because you asked so many questions in a row. That normally does not happen unless someone is doing homework or taking a test.

Subject: The poster was asking if she should
type verbatim. The doc is saying pussy and that is what she should type.
If you look in the dictionary, there is a definition for pussy which means "full of or resembling pus".
You can't say "no way is "pussy" correct. You are telling her to alter the sentence and she said it is a verbatim account. It is a word.
If it is not verbatim, then alter away but you better be careful if you do this a lot.

this one tends to look like 3+ over 4 over 5, which is terribly confusing. My docs prefer 3+ to 4/5. But everybody is different, I guess.

Elevated bilirubin disease?
Subject: Elevated bilirubin disease?
I cannot find this disease since I am not sure what the first few letters clearly are, maybe a French name, again not sure. The patient has an elevated bilirubin, abdominal pain and vomiting. The doc suspects this disease rather than an obstruction. The disease s/l Jobear's or Joulbar's or Yolbear's.

I think you're looking for Gilbert syndrome. A French pronunciation would sound like what you're hearing. It's an error in bilirubin metabolism.

each lab has their own specs. also, when a doc says low blood count, he would normally mean wbc; however, a lot of times, the doc would talking about the hemoglobin. to be safe, i would just type what he says.

I read both of your posts and it was a bit confusing to me. If you are asking what the word *saline* may be than that would clear it up. The confusion is that you put *saline s/l*. Normally, people put the s/l before the word they are trying to figure out. If there is another word in the sentence that goes after saline, you have to give us what it sounds like. If the sounds like is saline, that would help to clear it up.

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.

Subject: that's right but the poster's sentence....sm
the poster's sentence is what I was describing - here's the sentence:
Cooperative young man who tends not to be very s/l robose (roe-bose)
and so I said in the subject line - *not very talkative* - sentence being *tends not to be very verbose.....
I guess I should have explained that better in my original post - sorry about that *S*

I believe a tonsillar sponge can be used for nasal surgery. It is the shape, has nothing to do with the tonsils. When I Googled tonsillar sponge, I found a section Acute Surgical Mangement. It talks about nasal packing and if you scroll down it mentions tonsillar sponge, referring to the shape.
