Anybody have experience with adding a medical dictionary that works with Word 7 and doesen't require a home equity loan to download?

What I did, instead of buying a medical dictionary, is look up unknown words as I come across them and add them to my custom dictionary. Then...it's there the next time and it cost me nothing. I know severe other MTs who have done the same thing.
that is what I have done for the past 20 years, and - anon

my Word dictionary is now customized to my specific worktype. Takes time to buid up, but not as long as you would think.
Added to my custom dictionary, as well as using MTH - FlaMT

The MTH spellchecker/dict. can be found here: http://mtherald.com/free-medical-spell-checker-for-microsoft-word-custom-dictionary/
Just so you know, I have found that this dictionary includes British spellings, so you might want to scan through it or be on the lookout for those then delete them from the dictionary as you see fit. I've been using it for about a year now and have only had to delete a handful of entries, which (to me) is better than paying $$$$ for another program.
I just recently quit my job with MQ after having been there for 10 years. I'm now working as an IC on Word. Does anybody have information on a good medical software program (medical dictionary/spell checker/expander) that is compatible with Word. I'd like to get something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg!!
Any help would be appreciated.

Using Word 2007. Installed Stedmans Spellchecker 2010 . Test shows the speller is working. Upon spell checking document it does not allow me to add words to the dictionary. That option is grayed out.
I've followed instructions found online to correct this in Word but that does not solve the problem. I had EditScript downloaded to my PC , but have not used it yet. I wonder if EditScript disabled this feature in Word?

It's on a wrist injury. The word sounds like (it's slurred), but has the sound of - "inishits"
The sentence is
He has instability of the distal radial ulnar joint. He had an MRI, which did reveal tear of the TFCC, which _____ with his clinical picture.
Anywone have any guesses as to what that might be? I'm just at a loss.
Thanks,

I always had this through work, and now I need to buy my own. Are you allowed to borrow, or people share a license? I don't know how this works, I've never done it.
Is there another program similar to it, maybe a bit less in price?
I definitely do NOT want to spend $100 on it, let alone have to pay to renew any licensing or get upgrades every year. I'd really like to buy it once and be done with it, is that possible?

I am trying to find a good spellchecker to download for Word 2003. I had previously been working out of WP5.1 and then Pscribe, so there was no need for me to purchase one. TOO many out there, would like opinions from MTs who actually use them, not the manufacturer saying "its the best one available" and end up paying for something that is garbage. Starting a new position on Monday where I will be typing in Word 2003. Any suggestions greatly appreciat ...

I was working on some macros and needed a command for changing text to Arial 11. I'm thinking "hmmmm, Arial, A." Let's make it Alt+A.
Does it tell me that's already assigned to something? Nooooooo. I totally forgot it's part of the spell checker commands. So now, when I do spell checks, I don't have the option to add words to the dictionary.
How do I get Alt+A back to it's original state? I deleted the macro I'd made, ...
