yeah - I've noticed!

Posted By: stradecat on 2006-05-29
In Reply to: Welcome to the boards! - sm

Subject: yeah - I've noticed!

I've already found myself either sticking up for others, or myself, during my few days on this board - some people can really be out of line. I am looking forward to helping though - especially the new MTs - if they do well and look good, we (American MTs) in turn look good as a group. I would like to dedicate some of my time each day to just browse by and see if any help is needed out there - believe me - I have plenty of time with all the standby during the final days at Heartland :) Anyhow, Thank you for helping me focus my efforts in the right direction!

    It does say in there at one point that I didn't notice before that up to 10 mg a day could be required.  The pills don't come in 5 mg doses though if that means anything.

    My VR now automatically types it as hypercholesteremia, spellcheck accepts that spelling plus I looked it up in a few dictionaries and that is shown as an alternative spelling.  Had never noticed this before......

    bulbocavernosis mucosa _____

    Has anyone noticed this when posting on the word board?
    Subject: Has anyone noticed this when posting on the word board?

    It's a minor annoyance....but when you go to the verification page, do you have to click in the box to put in the letter/number combination?


    On the other boards, the cursor is already there. I can't tell you how many times I have glanced at the code, entered it without looking at the screen, then hit "enter", only to get an error message and have to enter a new code. I finally started paying attention and as far as I can tell, this is the only board that does that.


    As I said, minor but annoying.....wanted to see if anyone else has experienced that.


    I guess Lantus can't be p.o. can it? I just noticed I typed literally what the doc said. ~sigh~

    Subject: Yeah, there are. But

    "Are you kidding? Does not deserve an answer." sounds more like specific question related rather than too many posts related.
    yeah, could have been PET
    Subject: yeah, could have been PET

    sure did s/l pan though! I didn't think pan CT made any sense and couldn't find a reference, but I wanted to be sure.


    Thanks so much, I really appreciate the help!


    OHH yeah that does help. She did say
    Subject: OHH yeah that does help. She did say

    pt is scheduled for a "colectomy takedown and reanastomosis" I guess I'll leave it as she says it. I thought maybe she could have been using the wrong term and meant "colostomy takedown" or it could have been "colectomy, takedown, and reanastomosis" like the pt was going to have another colectomy.


    Thanks so much for the help! And just in time, too, I'm just about to send in the report. Much appreciated!


    well yeah, sure....if it is an ESL....*LOL*

    Of course, I was just taking *a guess* - because I don't know a *y* - and I just based my response on the 2a the OP typed.....but thanks for adding to the helping fun part of all this

    got it earlier while searching for correct word.....thnx for your time....
    Yeah...
    Subject: Yeah...

    Yeah. I know. 21 of the 25 doctors I routinely transcribe are ESL. It's challenging, to say the least. I was just hoping that someone would recognize the sounds. (I know that sometimes I can, even when reading what someone else heard.)


    I blanked it. Will report back if anyone cares.

    Yeah thats it! Thank you!
    Subject: Yeah thats it! Thank you!


    Oh yeah...
    Subject: Oh yeah...

    I know how that is. It's weird that some docs expect you to go against common rules. The BOS says use of actual numbers should be used exclusively but at times to use your own judgement. But, even common English rules say not to spell out numbers above 10. Now, capitalizing generic medicines is just plain crazy. But you do what they ask, no matter how ignorant. :-) Been there, done that.
    oh, yeah that's it.!? Thanks nm

    Yeah, I don't see how it's an abdl CT
    Subject: Yeah, I don't see how it's an abdl CT

    and it's showing the sacrum, so I wonder if it's really a CT of the pelvis. Docs can be really sloppy about dictating the names of procedures, which can make it harder on billing.
    uh yeah, I guess you would be.
    Subject: uh yeah, I guess you would be.

    I just googled it.
