colic actually means spasms in the abdomen etc. may be saying spasms of pain, i.e. colicky. Love it when they try to drive us nutz with this stuff!!!
I'm going completely blank on this one. The patient entered the hospital for chest pain. The doc states: (blank sounds like gel, or jail)
He denies any current discomfort but states when it is present it is usually a mild to moderate degree of pressure about the chest. He denies any radiation to the _____, arms, or back. ...
Nuance actually had the nerve to send out an email about referring fellow MTs to their company. Either they are that brazen or just clueless as to how bad their company is. I don't advise anyone looking for a job to even consider this field, let alone the worst company I've ever worked for. ...
. . . continue the rest of her medications as listed in her MAR. Does anyone know what this stands for or if I am spelling it right?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Anyone have any ideas about how to tell off a pain-in-the-a** Q/A who takes any opportunity to send stupid comments without losing your job - and definitely putting her in her place!!! I'm sick of her nonsense. Or is it that all Q/As know they have the upper hand????
Thanks.

So all I had to do was walke up one morning about a week ago and my arm throbbed. Lots of pain between the wrist and elbow and can feel it any time I move my fingers or use my mouse. Anyone have any ideas how to deal with this? I'm about to go nuts with this constant ache/pain. ...
This patient is in for groin pain, diagnosis of hip early degenerative arthritis, DR states in HPI that she has a "history of s/l shark lordosis"
Under PE he states she has "no sensory deficits of lower extremity except for baseline s/l stockings of glove distribution secondary to her s/l shark-loida peripheral neuropathy."
I know that makes no sense but this DR sounds like he had a long night last night and may still have some substances running through his system. LOL He is usually ver ...
I am working on a Orthopedic report and it sounds like the doctor is dictating that the patient has severe fluro pain. I have not heard of "fluro" pain. Is this slang for another term? The patient has rhuematoid arthritis. ...
I need help please! I think in the past I had read in BOS that when dictator is saying 1-2 out of 10 on pain scale it should be 1/10-2/10. Can anyone verify correct way please? Cannot find in my BOS.
ALso dictator is saying "triple A surgery". Should that be typed as AAA or triple A?
Thank you! ...
Hi, everyone. I'm sure that this is a common problem in the transcription field, but I was hoping someone had some sort of remedy. I've been typing every day for the past couple of weeks about 9 hours a day and one of my fingers (the one I use for the Backspace key) is really starting to hurt every time I push down on it. It's right at the second knuckle on the digit and it's starting to become problematic.
Any suggestions from more experienced MTs?
Thanks. ...
