And, Steph, it was the pain people, the ones theoretically familiar with propofol who were the ones balking. My migraine guy came round.
Jesus fucking Christ. It's not like the drug is a random suggestion -- all these medical professionals have to do is use The Google. If *I* can find it, they sure the hell can. There are goddamned documented studies of it working.
Another drug you might want to mention to your migraine doctor is thalidomide. Apparently it's been successful at reducing intractable pain: [link] (scroll down).
Maybe if I start referring to the things I want with the prefix "Iya-" then a kind stranger will send it to me.
I am good.
I want
Iyacoffee.
john denver & the muppets Christmas album = me happy
ita, I had forgotten about your popcorn issues. I think the salt tablets are the best way for you to go, but for future reference, bacon salt is both nitrite and nitrate -free. (Pete has issues with both, so I had to double-check.)
Kat , I know you have enough craziness now, but talking to a lawyer or union rep would be a good idea
and good luck , JZ.
My father was a pilot, so I have been flying forever. Flying has changed. United is rarely on time now. As in I think they need to start giving food to people to help keep them coffee. Martini's would also be good. Oddly -I felt worse for the parents - that had schedualed flights so the babies would sleep. a 3 hour delay - purely due to lack of crew ( that was not weather delayed - just badly schedualed) really messed that plan up.
and I one who drives, but would like the ability to skip it some days. I know there are times when it would be better if I wasn't driving.
This country needs high-speed rail.
ION, I have just discovered that
Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space
is on DVD....
This country needs fucking teleportation. If it existed, I'd get up at my normal time and be able to do early morning and evening childcare for FREE for my friends spread far and wide (um, and play with neato kids) and still hold a job.
ita, orthostatic hypotension could explain the fainting, anyway. How do you feel about soy sauce? It's seriously loaded with sodium.
I've never been afraid of flying. Flying is safe. Driving is dangerous.
I have lowish blood pressure, and have always had wild cravings for salty foods. Coincidence? I think not!
(Mine are usually dill pickles, and sometimes artichoke hearts over salad. My stepsister used to put salt on raw cucumber slices, which I thought was gross when I was 10, but now I'm an adult I've tried it, and it's pretty good.)
