Save the report with their correction. If you get that phrase again use it like they told you to, and if they ding you for doing it the way they said, you at least have proof and were "just doin' what ya told me to do."
It's hard to do but just play along, shrug it off, and move on.

A couple of grammar rules are at play here
Subject: A couple of grammar rules are at play here
First of all, both got and gotten are correct forms of the verb get. However, got is a past tense or past participle depending on whether or not the word "has" or "have" is used in front of it. Gotten, however, is past participle and should be used with the word "has" or "have" in front of it.
It has gotten increasingly larger - okay. It gotten increasingly larger - not okay. It got increasingly larger - okay. It has got increasingly larger - okay.
So if your doc says it anyway but "It gotten increasingly larger", he is correct. It's simply a matter of preference. Brits don't generally use the word "gotten", and therefore, a lot of people think it is not a legitimate word, but it is.

Don't know about BOS, but leukocyte esterase is just a test for an enzyme that might indicate a uti...so in my experience, it's either a positive or negative result. If he gives you actual numbers or ranges (10-20), then he's talking about actual white blood cells (leukocytes).
At least that's my understanding.
Hope that helps!

also sometimes in just reading the board.....the one-word answers to a newbie I think might seem a little curt...so I like to help and give a little extra even though NOBODY taught me a thing about transcription, had to learn everything on my own back in the decades pre-computers. *LOL* - so it's nice for me to read a more complete response to somebody....which is why I sometimes, au occasion, do go the extra mile to explain, especially since for years I, myself, thought that Mohs was MOHS....until just a couple of years ago.....
Just my way of doing things, not to fight/disagree with anyone else in this thread.
