Re: Question...to Ruggieri

I think if my urologist calls the ER telling them I am on my way in

with a stone, they are standing there with IV lines and morphine ready

to go. The are very quick to relieve the pain. But before I had a

regular urologist, sometimes I had to wait until blood showed up in my

urine or I had a positive stone on x-rays or scans. I quickly learned

to call my personal physician before I went to an ER and they sent the

orders themselves. That might help. Hope so. Good luck.
