I started on a Stephen King kick a couple years back and since then have read roughly ten or so of his novels to my great enjoyment/sick fascination. This past week I started one of his latest:...
I completely agree with the Zofran point. Why do you have to be at an extreme before they will prescribe it? I called my Dr. the last time I had a sv* and asked if they would call in a prescription...
Wow that is scary. I know alot of non-emets who would be very annoyed at that behavior!
