Oh, grow up you big babies
There was nothing nasty about it at all. It was simply the truth. She could easily have found the answer herself (and actually LEARNED SOMETHING USEFUL in the process) if she hadn't been to lazy to make the effort. I would have given her the same answer if MT hadn't beat me to it.

would * muscular * distention make sense? What muscles? I have never heard of muscles being distended in a neck exam. That may not mean anything as I am sure I have not heard of everything in the world of MT. 
Could it be * vascular * distention? as in no vessels being distended, such as the jugular?
oh well, you have probably sent off the report by now.....

Must be hyper then if they're putting on aspirin. Glad you figured out what to do.

This piqued my interest and I googled "beetle nuts" with mouth cancer. Turns out there really is a connection. Apparently it's a leading cause of mouth cancer in Taiwan, where I guess they chew on a lot of beetle nuts. Hmm, you learn something new every day!

Subject: Another interesting term is distention. (sm)
There are 2 spellings for distention, but the medical references say spell it as above, not the alternate spelling - distension. I see that a lot of MTs have not noticed that one, either.

Using propofol (DIPRIVAN) to sedate patients during endoscopic and other diagnostic procedures is gaining momentum in a growing number of hospitals, outpatient surgery centers, and physician offices.(1) In trained hands, propofol offers many advantages over other drugs used for sedation because it:
* Has a rapid onset (about 40 seconds) and a short duration of action;
* Allows patients to wake up, recover, and return to baseline activities and diet sooner than some other sedation agents;
* Reduces the need for opioids, thus resulting in less nausea and vomiting.

Subject: That's interesting 'cause the 3 companies I work for still spell out 1-10.
The doctor's really could care less what is written BOS. They are interested in quality work. It is funny how some companies and transcriptionists breath/live it. I am sure there are some doctors out there who are counting every key stroke but most just want to practice medicine. btw....still spacing twice after periods also.....so much for the BOS.....it just doesn't have a whole lot of power these days.
