The only jobs that were actualy transcription for me today were the worst 4 doctors on the planet!
I am pulling my hair out today over the 10 reports that had to be sent to the MMEs with all of the holes!
Also, to the MME who corrected 1 of my reports:

Does anybody know what a toilet amputation is? Here's the sentence - "The details, risks, alternatives and benefits of a toilet amputation were discussed..."

"Patient has had an s/l amputation radial tear of the posterior horn, which was treated with partial meniscectomy."
That is what I am clearly hearing but I cannot reference that anywhere. If it is correct, what is it?
Also, DR states he showed the patient the "video prints" so that she understands. I have never heard this before. Is this photos from the surgery video?

I swear to all that is holy, this is what this less-than-stellar PA just dictated:
"The patient IS a high-risk gestational trophoblastic disease..." I went back and listened thinking I must have heard wrong and she said patient HAS ... Nope. She said IS. This is the same PA who dictated a creatinine of 92 for someone.
That sound you hear is me hitting my head on the desk. ...
