Did you read the list of side effects? Suicide? {{{shudders}}} I do eat small children when I can catch them but I haven't had any real side effects. I was given one medication for pain that caused involuntary tremors, my hands to shake and I wet the bed. It turns out that it interacted with one of my blood pressure meds. 8-) [8~{} Uncle Tinkle Monster I don't need meds to make my hands shake! They do that already on their own. The heart medicine they put me on made my blood pressure too low, though. They told me to take half a pill instead of a whole pill. That seems to be working better. -- rebel |

From: Uncle Monster Newsgroups: alt.home.repair I love it when you old crippled welfare sucking leaches tell us about your infirmaties. Bring it on!! Let's vote on who deserves the most sympathy! Don't hold back. HealthCare/BigPharma loves the ignorant. Ignorant of nutrition, people have abused their bodies for decades and now need lots of expensive/profitable medical procedures and pharmaceuticals to remain alive. So lets raise a glass of water to all the stupid people and thank them for their consumption of GMOs, processed HFCS enriched McFood and resultant pharmaceuticals. Disclosu I own some stock in HealthCare/BigPharma and profit from these idiots. Oooo, another nymshift. Is that you Mr.NUT? ^_^ [8~{} Uncle Trapper Monster |

Let me guess: You led a very healthy lifestyle, avoided sugars, fats, excessive carbos, ate lots of veggies and neutritious food. But somehow you ran into these health problems. How did it happen?

But somehow you ran into these health problems. How did it happen? Well, I hope you feel better soon? Your Friend Forever Mr. NUT I was overweight at one time because of sugar laden soft drinks. When I was working I would sweat like a thunderstorm so I drank a lot of fluids which turned out to be sugar sweetened soft drinks and iced tea. When I switched to diet soft drinks and unsweetened iced tea, I dropped 100 lbs in two months. I'm now 145 lbs lighter than my heaviest, my belly is gone and I can see Mr.Happy without a mirror. I now have normal blood sugar but the damage had already been done before I cut out the liquid sugar 15 years ago. I've never had a beer or so much as a glass of wine in my life. I've never smoked anything legal or illegal in my life and I've never taken any illegal or recreational drug. I actually despise the damn pills the doctors give me. My medical problems were caused by exposure to lots of secondhand smoke as a child which has caused me severe breathing problems for my whole life. Even now, tobacco smoke is like pepper spray to me. Back in the middle of the last century when I was born, no one knew any better than to expose a child in or out of the womb to the byproducts of burning tobacco. Numerous injuries have built up over the years until my knees and shoulders are shot but the most damaging thing to my health has been the sugar in iced tea and soft drinks. Two of my brothers have the same problems to some degree or the other because of a family history of arthritis and diabetes. I have damage to my lower legs due to venous stasis but the circulation is back and my legs are slowly healing. I had a heart attack because my heart hadn't been beating correctly for a very long time and since my heart was shocked back into the correct rhythm, I now have a resting heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute when it was 100 or more before treatment. When the physical terrorists get through with me and I can walk again, I'll be going home. ^_^ [8~{} Uncle Healing Monster |

Those fumes turn my stomach just as much as cigarette fumes do. I'm have the same reaction to other VOC's in the air. I don't come across many people wearing strong colognes or perfumes any more, though. -- rebel |

[snip] Sexual preference doesn't matter. Smokers stink! Yes. Also the smoke interferes with the sense of smell (much of what we call taste is actually smell). I'm glad that restaurants around here don't allow smoking inside. It's still nasty when you go outside but at least you get to taste the food. All that aside, anyone that smokes cigarettes is a ****ing idiot. Sheeeesh! People say they're addicted. Maybe so, but it's still obnoxious behavior and there are much better ways to get nicotine. Anyway, I never understood why anyone would start smoking. It's unpleasant to be around and a fire hazard. I remember riding a bus once (about 1976) and the person behind me was smoking, with a FIRE just 2-3 inches from my hair. -- Mark Lloyd http://notstupid.us/ "Trying to find God is a good deal like looking for money one has lost in a dream."

I had a teacher once who told about going into a bar for a drink, then walking around the room spitting in everyone's face. That's what smoking is like. And there may be a "designated smoking area", but the smoke doesn't follow the rules and stay there. I really get angry when their idiocy harms children. O_o As to that last thing, I remember those TV "public service" things that show a couple of really heavy smokers in a smoke filled room. They say they have no idea why their young son is coughing so much. [8~{} Uncle Angry Monster I've seen some bumper stickers that say "at least I can still smoke in my car".
