Hello kjv16114me@... ( ),

In reference to your comment:

è She states that her last lab tests showed that her

è " ung " is 73. It was up as high as 93 and at one point it

è went down to 86. Now it is 73. Her " FSH " done on

è 12-04-01, is .04, which is normal. Patient is chronically

è anemic with a WBC of 3.0 " HMH " is 9.2 and 29.5.

è Platelet is 117. per cu mm. This is most likely due to

è her sclerosis of the liver. Good " PTINR " . Protein of 15.3

è " INR " 1.2 " THH " is 3.65. Patient also needs a refill on

è her Soma 350mg. 1PO q.h.s. prn. Patient is also

è requesting a Flu vaccine.

Sorry, I'm drawing a blank on " ung. " FSH is correct, stands for follicle

stimulating hormone, HMH is probably H & H, which is slang for hemoglobin and

hematocrit, PTINR is written as PT-INR and INR is correct. THH is probably

TSH. It should be Soma 350 mg (space between the # and mg), and it should

be p.o. , and p.r.n. I don't think flu is capitalized.

Don't apologize for asking for help. Like Margaret, when I was new, I worked

in house and had several other " cubicle-mates " to ask as well as samples to

look at. Think of us on this list as your cyber cubicle-mates

It just occurred to me.. I wonder if this is lactulose? Hope this helps

Looks like most of your questions have been answered, and I for one want to

thank you for asking them. I'm learning quite a bit from the answers given,

and also, I'm realizing how far I've come when I can answer some of them.

Don't worry, in a month or two, another newbie will come along and ask

similar questions, and you'll be able to whip out the answer without

thinking about it. Just think how good you'll feel then. :-)

I'm racking (wracking?) my braing trying to figure this one out...

Phrasont?

" 2) Depression and anxiety. Patient has been tried on

Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft, " Phrasont " , and Xanax without

any relief. Prozac just made her sleepy. "

I do psych reports all day every day. The usual antidepressants and

antianxiety meds are Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa, Wellbutrin, etc. People

get Xanax, Klonopin, BuSpar and others for anxiety. I've never heard of

anything sounding like " Phrasont. " Is there anything else there that you

are hearing? The reason I ask is maybe it is something not so difficult

like " Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft, and on Xanax, assuming that this doctor is

butchering the English language...? Just reaching for this one...

One thing I remember very clearly about first starting out was that I was so

freaked out about everything being technical and difficult that I started to

find trouble when trouble wasn't there. In other words, I assumed

everything was difficult when sometimes it wasn't. I remember the first

time I heared someone had an ABG with a value of ____ on room air. I

assumed that " room air " had to be some technical term - you know - Rumaire

or some other darn thing. I spent half an hour looking in every reference

book I could find. I finally asked a nurse and she had a good laugh at my

expense. After that, I started to just trust what I was hearing and not try

to make " too much " out of it. Hope that little tidbit of advice will help

you in the next few weeks.
