"The buttocks ulcer present at the time improved until about August of ’09 and then seemed to plateau, and then was slightly larger in September through August and October, and then over several visits, up through December, had become deeper from 1.9 to 1.9 cm deep between October 20 and November 17 . . .

LOL, Snort. These docs really know their stuff. Am I missing something here? "Denied having any cataract extraction, but does have definite right cataract extraction." Also, the above patient is "quadriplegic and has severe ambulatory dysfunction." If this doc wasn't so bad, he'd be hilarious! ...

actually typed it!) "The patient arrived as a trauma patient early this morning after apparently drinking to excess, crashing his car, fleeing from police at a traffic stop and accident, and then jumping approximately 30 feet from a perfectly good bridge in town."   Man, why'd he have to go and ruin a perfectly good bridge?  :P ...

Dictation Guidelines For DoctorsMay 11, 2013
I swiped this from the board a few years ago and felt it was time to bring it back - it just never gets old (especially for MT's who have doctors that strictly adhere to these guidelines - LOL!)   DICTATION GUIDELINES FOR DOCTORS: Adherence to these guidelines will assure the highest quality transcribed reports in the shortest amount of time. 1. At the beginning of the dictation, take as deep a breath as you can. Now, try to dictate the entire report before you have to inhale ...

Am I Wrong?Sep 13, 2011
My oldest stepson (who calls me Mom) is coming home from Afghanistan to his base in Louisiana this week.  My husband got a call this afternoon informing us of a homecoming party at the base on Thursday and decided there wasn't enough notice for us to take time off of work and get there.  I know my boss is flexible enough that I could take the time off and he works with a lot of former military people, I'm sure they would make an exception to the 72 hour notice to see his ...

1.  Wanting the war to end?  I think the war has gone on way too long.  I do not see any purpose it is serving.  Can anyone tell me why we are fighting in a war?  Maybe I'm not at the "genious" level regarding this, but I just don't understand why we are at war.  Is it ever going to end or are we going to be at it for all eternity? 2.  Creating jobs for Americans here in America?  Actually creating industries that will put people to work - new j ...

For the last week or so, my mood has been really down.  I havent felt like working at all, just dont care about it.  It is not like I am doing a poor job at my work, but I am just not as gung ho as I normally am.  I have been really mean to my husband and honestly for no reason - just stupid things that would have never really bothered me usually.  And I know I am being mean to him but when I am saying the things to him it is like I just don't care because I want to make ...

What Is Wrong Here?Oct 27, 2011
I was watching the news last night and there was a story on there on how in Washington State they are having a problem finding workers to pick apples.  Now, they usually use illegals but with all the crackdown on illegals they are thousands of people short on getting these apples picked before the frost kills them.  They were talking about coming up with some temporary work visa so they can come in and pick these apples.  The news guy said that they apparently can't  ...

Not liking someone is one thing, absolute hatred and spitefulness is another.  Myself I just wish Sarah Palin would just go away.  I don't care for her and I don't care what she has to say.  If she would just go home and not out in the public I would be perfectly content.  Wish her and her family well.  I just don't care what she has to say...but...to wish someone dead is a whole other mental sickness I just don't understand.  Guess I'm glad ...

MSM serves up big, steaming pile of BS about former Navy SEAL who shot Osama bin Laden In part: And get this: Rather than issue a correction and apology for smearing the military, Bronstein is standing by his bogus story. According to Stars and Stripes reporter Megan McCloskey, Bronstein said “the assertion that the government gave the SEAL ‘nothing’ in terms of health care is both fair and accurate, because the SEAL didn’t know the VA benefits existed.” What? Even more a ...

Hi...I am dating someone who was upset and having financial problems. I decided last week to give him some money to help him get caught up. The amount I gave him was exactly the amount he said he was short on his bills.  I gave him a check. He did not deposit it until a week later (this past tues) and then yesterday while I was at his house he showed off a used knife he had just bought for $25 and then went and bought liquor to share with his brother and cousins (who are unemployed right no ...

Not only did they extend the tax cuts but they pushed back spending cuts.  Both wrong in my opinion.  Get rid of the tax cuts...let them expire for everyone.  Why are they pushing back spending cuts?  Isn't our biggest problem our debt and yet they push back spending cuts?  HUH?  Isn't that a tad counter productive to getting down our debt?  I am so disgusted with any and all politicians.  I'm to the point where I don't believe either p ...

While MTs once were able to make VERY GOOD livings at what they do, I think we all agree that today that is just not the case.  I cannot understand why people come to this board and actually put down those that are TRYING to pick themselves up out of this now slave-driven career and do better for themselves?  A person on here was contemplating a job at Wal-Mart and was completely bashed for that, yet another person being forced to seek government assistance was being praised!?!?!  ...
