ASR seems to do whatever it wants and does NOT follow rul ...

They didn't understand what we did BEFORE SR and they sure don't unde ...

Doc says: "Patient has some s/l ageefacee joint arthritis." In googling I found "age facet joint arthritis" but I have no idea if this is right. Can this be right? Who pronounces "age" as "agee"??
