OK, for you folks wanting the Jäger, the chilled tap is up on the bar. Please help yourself. The mixers, if you'd like are behind the bar. I'd opt for the new stock on the shelf if it were me; sci left the rot-gut behind in the speed racks. ;-) ng... I'm sorry for your ordeals with the migraine pain. As a chronic migraineur, I understand all too well the trials that we sometimes have to deal with when it comes to pain relief. I am shocked, though, that the ERs would opt for that nasty medicinal cocktail instead of choosing the simplest, most effective pain treatment at their disposal. For those of you who don't deal with the intense pain of migraines, sometimes narcotics are the simplest way of providing immediate relief. But, the initial treatment needs to be followed up with a more precise preventative medication (sometimes a cocktail of various drugs) to be administered soon after the initial treatment. I've been on the receiving end of the kind of cocktail that ng received and after three or four such administrations, I've flat out refused that type of medication as an acute; particularly when it's had no effect on my pain and contributed to all those side effects. Believe me, the side effects can be more debilitating than the migraine. It's bad enough trying to deal with migraines. I cannot imagine how much more aggravating it is to have migraines while trying to provide care to your daughter. My heart and warmest wishes go out to you nursygirl.
