Please provide the scan of the record or identify where I can find it. What you have sent does not let me open the scan.

I found it through the Lubeskie Korzenie website. After putting in the the name Apolonia Tarnopolska, the detabase shows only one record: the baptism from 1790. They have the link to the page in the baptism book and it opens for me …

In an 18th-century Latin church or civil record from Poland, the abbreviation “SRM” almost always stands for “Sacrae Regiae Maiestatis”, meaning of His Sacred Royal Majesty.So a person described as
“SRM Doctor Medicinae”
was a Doctor of Medicine in the service of His Sacred Royal Majesty (the King of Poland).
This was an honorific and indicated both status and royal appointment, rather than simply a degree.
