We have one nephrologist who writes so badly his "lasix" can look like "elbow." It took me forever to figure it out but you have to hold the chart sideways at JUST the right angle, then read it six times while standing on one leg and crossing your eyes. Then it starts to make sense. If not, take a tylenol and go find a nephrology or ICU nurse.

I was working with a dialysis patient once. Her nephrologist blew up to the nurses station, quickly jotted down some orders, and hurried down the hallway to the elevator. I picked up the chart to scan the orders, then rushed after him. "Excuse me, Doctor," I said, "but I need to know what language these are written in."
