My Steadman's Spellchecker says HydroDIURIL is correct. My doctor says
that looks funny. I agree. But it gets flagged every time I type it.
So my fellow
MT's....is it correct or not?
One of the other doctors wants me to start doing his reports because the
person
doing his keeps putting hemoglobin A1C instead of A1c and she types Miralax
instead of MiraLax. I had told her about those 2 things in particular
when I worked
in the same cubicle with her but she said she didn't care. I can't
imagine. I want
to be corrected. I want my reports to be as close to perfect as
possible. That's
why I was happy to find a group like this for when I have questions.
