557.1bean there, done that...JARETH::LARUau contraire...Mon Feb 10 1997 17:035
    I heard (at the coffee station) that one of the reasons people
    feel so crappy after surgery is caffein withdrawal...  and that
    they now include a little caffein in the post surgical drip...
    
    or maybe this is an urban rumor...
557.2LIQUID Nitro will do the job too!!!WMOIS::DELROSARIOAll too clear, we're on our ownMon Feb 10 1997 23:3912
    
         That wasn't the reason I was feelin' crappy after my 
    angioplasty....it was the nitroglycerin they were dripping
    into my I.V. to keep the blood vessels wide open. Every couple
    of minutes that dang machine would make that tell-tale sound
    that in just a few seconds my head was going feel like an intense
    migrain......aaaaaarrrrggghhh......I thought at one time they were
    going to take me off that stuff but they were just replacing the
    empty bag with a FULL one!!! Just a tease I guess.....

         As to everyday addictions.....
    
         "Hello...my name is Allenhead...and I'm a nicotine-aholic."
    
          Those in attendance,"Hi Allenhead."
    
         "I'm here to tell you I've been sober for 40 days now and
    there are times when......"

	Allenhead!  Haven't heard from you in a while...but you do tend
	to come and go ;-)...is this surgery recent?  Sounds like you've
	been through a pretty big scare.  Take care!

         To all concerned,
    
         I'm doing well at this point in time...just gotta modify my
    lifestyle a bit...it's kinda weird though. Now I've got something
    (a stent or stint) in me that's man-made and I wasn't born with
    and it seems kinda alien...you know what I mean??? I also look at
    life differently....I never really knew how fragile it really is
    and how fortunate I am to be a part of it.
    
         And now, back to addictions....CATS!!! You could say I'm
    hopelessly infatuated by them...I've got two and find myself
    wanting more. Any time I see a kitten or a "free to a good home"
    or just seeing another one anywhere, I just wanna ......;^)

    Addictions - plenty - 5-6 cups of coffee to start the day. I enjoy at
    least my share of beverages, butts, etc... Luckily, my body is
    resilient.  
    
    I am giving up mowing my lawn for lent ;^)

    I have been cutting down of caffine lately, no coffee after 5:00pm,
    (except weekends), no coffee until I get to work (that hurts).
    So far so good, except that spaced no coffee feeling when going
    into work.
