I had a horrible experience where I was promised that I wouldn't even remember the procedure. I was on an I.V. and they put 02 on me as soon as the Interna; Specialist showed up. I felt everything, from every cut, to that tube going in and out. The Dr. did tell them to give me another 100 of who knows what. I wasn't even the least bit sleepy. I cried through the whole thing which did nothing but made me feel like a baby! If anyone out there has ever seen the movie "FIRE IN THE SKY", you will know what part kept flashing in front of my eyes. I asked, but was never given a clear answer on what went wrong. I was then told that my tolerance is so high that it impaired the sedation. I just can't shake it and I am already having nightmares. I had already told myself (jokingly) that I am going to have PTSD over this. I will never let anyone do anything to me again unless I am put under general anesthesia. I just want a clear cut answer. Anyone had this problem? TY for your help in advance.

I can't stand the stuff. I use my preferred Sweet N Low. I don't who ever thought that Splenda tastes good. It is nasty.

McDonald's here in Georgia no longer has Sweet N Low. I take my own whenever I eat there (I like their chicken salads). I complained to the McDonald's website that they should offer other alternatives to Splenda...like keeping Equal (which is ok but I'm not a huge fan of) and Sweet N Low (which I prefer). Chick-Fil-A does...they offer all three. I keep a small ziploc bag in my purse with packets of Sweet N Low in it.

Yuck yuck yuck. You either love it or you hate it.

been feeling really lethargic.... lots of flu symptoms with no actual flu. I am shivering and hot at the same time, my neck has been very stiff. I have had headaches, some slight stomach pains and lightheadedness, and have woken up on two occasion soaking wet from sweating, yet when I am lying in bed I am freezing cold.

I made an appointment with my doctor's surgery yesterday and I could only see the nurse who took a blood test and said there was some slight blood in my urine and that I had an elevated temperature..

I also went to Uganda and Rwanda in January 2007. I took all the malarial preventions but of course they are never 100% effective. I am due to go for a blood test tomorrow but the results won't be back for a further 10 days so I am just racking my brains trying to think do my symptoms resemble malarial ones...

I thought it was bronchitis but my chest is clear, I went to see a doctor she said it was sinisitus, gave me tablets and nasal spray and said to put my head over steam to clear up sinuses but nothing has worked.

Hi all,

I have been struggling from all day tiredness/fatigue for the last 3 yrs. I sleep well and get up tired and no energy to do excercise or even walking. I push myself to office and feel very tired and exhausted in office, without doing any work in office.
My personality significantly changed from a dynamic one(3 years back) to a meek and humble/tired person.

I am infact overweight, and have High BP (for which i have been prescribed for the last 3 years). I also have a burning and / or tightening feelilng in my chest (during this feeling I am feelling further more tired and want to be in bed all day).

This tiredness is ruining my life. I am getting up feeling tired and exhausted. Everyday i feel better in the evenings (probably around 4 pm to 7 pm) and that is the only time I do a lot of work in the office and rest of the time I am dead in the office.

Went to a neurologist.....he has done an EEG...perfectly normal

He prescribed 6 tablets a day..no effect at all.
