Just watched another ridiculous episode of 'Diagnosis Murder' where Dr Mark Sloan was gassed with laughing gas. In the scene he's laughing like a pratt with the usual hammy acting...
Just wondered if laughing gas really exists??

Nitrous Oxide = " Entenox"
Used as a muscle relaxant and painkiller
in women in labour
re-setting joint dislocations
and painful fracture manipulations
can be help[ful to relieve pain , from kidney stone spasm
It gives the patient pain relief , and a feeling of euphoria
and does occasionally, make people giggle
Hence Laughing gas !!!!
a very useful tool , to have on the ambulance and in ER

It's the gas Nitrous Oxide and is mostly used by dentists as a sort of sedative to help relax patients. Recreationally it's jsut termed "nitrous" and can sometiems be found at parties in presurized tanks. Basically it gives you a light headed feeling and things do seem pretty darn funny.

Nitrous Oxide causes sensations of euphoria and often results in the one taking it to suffer bouts of giggling. Laughing gas is it's nickname.

When I go to the dentist and they give laughing gas, I feel high and almost as if I am going to fall off the chair lol =P Sometimes I feel sleepy and confused.
