Apparently, after 10 years of doing my job it has been brought to my attention that my punctuation is a little "off" lately. Not sure how I managed the last 10 years, however, I was wondering if this would be the place for me to ask questions (daily)?
My doctors tend to have many fragmented/run-on sentences and just when I think I am punctuating them correctly, I am told something different by QA.
Here is an example of what's "bothering" me now - this is how it was dictated:
He states at this time that the pain in his back has migrated down a little below where it was prior to his fusion although he continues to have radiating pain around his chest he does not feel he can make an adequate assessment on whether the procedure has been particularly helpful.
Here is how I typed it:
He states at this time that the pain in his back has migrated down a little below where it was prior to his fusion. Although he continues to have radiating pain around his chest, he does not feel he can make an adequate assessment on whether the procedure has been particularly helpful.
We are only "allowed" to do subtle editing, so rephrasing these run-on sentences is not an option.
Does my version look correct or am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
