#1. The patient states that he has had occipital headaches that are worse towards the evening.
#2. The patient says that they are occipital in nature and will again be worse in the evening.
#3. The patient states that the arm pain is rated 2-8/10 depending on the time of day and again worsens with activity towards the end of the day and are associated with his headaches.
This is exactly what the doctor dictates, without punctuation. He is repeating that the patient has already told him the pain will be worse in the evening. How do I punctuate to keep from reading like the patient's pain is happening for the second time.
