    I guess...

    They kept me over night "for observation" (read that to mean they were desperate and wanted to try something and see what happens). Without exaggerating, more than 20 different doctors looked at me in the 24 hours I was there. And my arms looked like I was a major junkie from all the blood draws they did on me. There was 2 vampires drawing blood from each arm at the same time.

    It was an experience.

    Im not advocating it, but if you dont tell anyone, how will anyone know you're on any prescriptions?

    I'll admit I have no idea, because I've never been on any kind if prescription meds. Even if I was, I'll be ###### if Im telling anyone that anything to with controlling my employment.

    Problem with that is if I get in to a wreck, a ticket, someone finds out I'm hosed entirely.
