The second word is phase, not face. Can't figure out the first one though.

If you plug "bone scan RSD" into google, the google search box will actually hint at it before you even hit enter. My ortho book has it hyphenated, i.e., triple-phase bone scan.

That's it! - rainbo

AARP Article Recommending Transcription To Seniors
Oct 27, 2013

A friend has written to inform me that the latest AARP magazine has an article recommending transcription to seniors as a viable source of side income. At first I laughed.  Now I'm mad.

To Those Who Have United Insurance....Question About Tubal Ligation
Apr 29, 2010

MQ is not offering Kaiser anymore, so my coverage will end May 31 and I will have to choose another insurance, probably United.  I wanted to get a tubal ligation, and at Kaiser the total cost would just be $10 (after a 20-dollar copay to see my PCP first that is).   In any case, very cheap.  Can anyone tell me if they've had a tubal ligation through United what the cost was?  Was it even covered?  I guess I could wait until we get our new insurance info, but I ...

This used to be a career where many of us were able to ride the gravy train for awhile.  Don't get me wrong, we really worked hard for our money.  But, back in the day, we either had our own accounts and kept the entire cpl, or we worked for an MTSO who subcontracted to us or hired us to transcribe and we got a bigger piece of that cpl pie.  I made some fantastic money even 12 years ago.  I was working on tapes or rerecording on from my Skutch box. The years have advanc ...

Not only was his behavior unprofessiona ...


A Smiley Face Moment

Typed a friendly, clear, efficient doctor on an account I have never heard of before and will probably never have again, but he was dictating on a "pleasantly demented woman" and exam was "a little difficult" due to the fact that she "sang throughout the entire exam." It just made me smile to think of the elderly lady sitting there singing while he was trying to listen to her heart and lungs. I'll take whatever smiles I can get these days...   ...
