Subject: transaminitis secondary to ?N.A.L.D.? SM
The patient swallowed a fentanyl patch. This is the discharge summary and in it, the ESL doctor says, "Transaminitis, most probably secondary to N A L D vs Lortab intoxication." She never says these letters again and all I can document is neonatal adrenoleukodystropy. Since she's almost 60, I don't think that would fit.

I think if you would substitute "bilateral" (mentally) and say "both" you might have a better idea how to say it. Like would it sound better iff you said "both hand" or "both hands." To me bilateral hands sounds better. But again, I don't know if there is actually a rule. I looked for an answer in "style Guide for Medical Transcription" (Tessier and Pitman) and couldn't find an answer.
I think if you wrote what the doctor said ....you can't go wrong there either. Good luck!.
