Never rely on your spellchecker.
I have that same argument with my spellchecker.
Subject: I have that same argument with my spellchecker.
Couldn't document it in my reference books, only got 800 hits on Google. However, the doctor said it and QA changed it back to brachioplexus from brachial plexus, so I added it to the spellchecker dictionary. It's another one of those undocumentable words that are becoming commonly used.

I have Stedman's medical spellchecker installed and it will automatically cap the ones that are brand names and leave uncapped the generic ones. Very rarely do I have to check on line to see.

Thanks for all the input. It is helpful to get opinions from other MTs with more experience. I really love coming here for advice and trying to give some if I can.

I just want to be sure about whether since she specified it is left side only that extensor hallucis "is" and not extensor hallucis "are". If she said bilateral then it would read extensor hallucis are 4+/5 -- am I getting that part correct? TIA
To be clear?
Subject: To be clear?
Hallucis IS.......halluces ARE. You will know when she is talking about a different side or bilateral. Don't over-think your dictator, okay? I'm thinking you may be new (I hope) and these things will become more clear as you go.
I know you're trying to get it perfect, but she knows what she's doing with the foot/feet. :)

She keeps referring to white matter abnormalities with signal loss and T2 prolongation through the entire report, so I am thinking leuko (white) something....no idea

I would leave a blank, although it is probably hypocoagulable (my Stedman's oncology book has this word) and we used it in the lab, such as defective clotting with factor deficiences such as hemophilia, von Willebrand (which heavy menstrual flow can be a sign), low platelet count, ITP, liver disorders that affect vitamin K production, etc. But it's really hard to say without knowing more about this patient because, if I can explain this right, there are conditions or situations that can cause hypercoagulable states that then use up all the clotting factors, etc., and then cause bleeding. So really need to know more on what the patient's other symptoms, family history, etc. to be sure on something like this when you can't hear for sure, I think anyway. Sorry for the long essay here, used to be one of my areas of interest a long time ago. Once worked up a lady who had heavy, heavy vaginal bleeding after childbirth, was in really bad DIC, docs had a heck of a time saving her. You can google on some of this if you're interested.

could be s/l Akiva maybe, but it definitely is not a V at the beginning. Unless the doc is reading it wrong from paper... not sure.
Thanks for the input!

There is no evidence for ureteral obstruction. He may be a candidate for a minimal invasive therapy such as T1T or even laser prostatectomy.

in what they were asking, like perhaps given the whole sentence. I assumed they were asking about a possessive but it could also be seen as asking about a pleural.
doc is very clear. sm
Subject: doc is very clear. sm
he is spelling it out exactly like this "vobenzin", or could be "zobenzim"; and, "artron". Definitely not Benzig and artane. No mention of Parkinson's disease which Artane is used for, and doc is clearly not saying Artane. I went to rxlist on Internet and nothing came up either!

i'm not questioning whether to hypen or use the word "and". What I'm questioning is can you use 2 different measurement systems for the same measurement - isn't the 3/8 referring to an inch? how do you have 157 cm and 3/8 of an inch?
it's very clear...
Subject: it's very clear...
He definitely says Levoryl (now that I know how to spell it). :) When I do a google search on Levoryl, there are only two pages that come up. I can't find it in RxList.com. Is it an old drug that doesn't exist anymore?

That's why it has me so stumped. The previous line says it was an enlarged lesion on his buttock that was excised and felt to be a "fiddle" lymphoma.
I don't think so. He's very clear.

I've never heard of a soupy tendon though.

but I can't find anything online; it's a clinical trial for b-cell lymphoma. Sounds like he says something to the effect of RBAYCOPB chemotherapy. Don't know where there's dashes, if any, but I can't find anything. Thanks!

He says prylotherapy and is very clear...sm
Subject: He says prylotherapy and is very clear...sm
Chief complaint is buttock pain. MRI and CT remarkable for tendinitis in the ischial tuberosity. But doc also says patient has prior history of heel pain. He says this just before saying patient has undergone previous prylotherapy.
The info I've found says prylotherapy is done for pain, so that fits. Basically what I've found: Prolotherapy (injection into the joint), and prylotherapy (injection into trigger points).
