need it, and "spelt" is simply not correct.  If you can't stand to be corrected, you're in the wrong business!

Is there something like "hold and call" for any test like an x-ray or CAT scan, that needs to be done urgently on a patient before the patient leaves the office?

PS -Did you think to call a pharmacy? sm
Subject: PS -Did you think to call a pharmacy? sm

This is what I did when something like this comes up. I know they want you to use the slightest amount possible, and usually never prescribe more than a small tube at a time. This is a very huge amount. I find pharmacists usually are very helpful if you don't ask them more than a few times a year. I would rather do this than say "a pound," just picture it in your head - that's a lot.

....an "acute abdomen series." It is three plain x-rays - one of the abdomen with the patient flat (lying down), one of the abdomen with the patient standing upright, and a third x-ray of the chest to include the diaphragms (also with patient upright) so they can see if there is free air under the diaphragm (which can happen with bowel perforation in cases of diverticulitis, Crohn's, or other bowel diseases).

Subject: Read the TOS for the board

It states that this board is not designed to be a place to get unlimited advice.  It is here to foster dicussion.  My opinion is people tend to use this site as a crutch because they lack maturity or motivation or just don't care to experience the pleasaure of researching and making discoveries that will benefit them for life.
