Might be time for a beer test!

I haven't had an attack in 8 days. I had one minor shadow on Tuesday that O2 and an energy drink took care of. Since then I've had that "my God look how blue the sky is" feeling. I feel like I could take on the world! Time to get my life back -Dennis-

I'd wait longer than 8 days, but that's just me. So if you're gonna do it, make it a micro brew at least, o.k.?

good luck Dennis - I'm with Linda though - I'd be inclined to wai a little longer rather than risk upsetting the apple cart again. Whatever you do - I'm chuffed to bits about the 8 days off for you! Helen x

Good. That's just about the time I wait before trying the beer test. If I haven't had a hit or a shadow for seven days, I give it a shot. But hey--I'm a thrillseeker. Haven't been wrong very often, though. Good luck, and best wishes, George

Here you go Linda... My wife and I took half our kids out to eat last night. Nothing special, we just hadn't been out in a while. So we went to a local place with our four youngest, my oldest son and his fiance. Just the eight of us We started with fried calamari and spinnach artichoke dip. For the entre I had the 14oz New York serloin, pan roasted red potatoes and green beans. To wash it all down I ordered a 10oz Sunset Martini: Jose Quervo, Triple Sec, Sour mix, OJ and a splash of sprite! It was sweet, smooth and lingered on the tongue. No headache! No shadows! Felt great all night and this morning! 10 days and counting. The kids are all showing up for Kallen's 10th b-day celebration in a little bit. They'res a Budwiser in the fridge with my name on it. -Dennis- BTW: I did have my usual emergency kit in the car just in case my timing prooved a bit off. A full e-tank, 16oz Rock Star and two Imitrex jabs. I might be crazy but I'm not insane

You passed the beer test, even if it was some horrible mixture, and not a decent beer. Good. Best wishes, George

Dennis: Way to go man! I'm sorry I won't be joining you. I was given some Hennessy Champagne Cognac VSOP, and 2 sips gave me a hit. There's a country song and/or a greek tragedy in that somewhere. But Dennis, I'm happy that you're at a place to live life! Ray

Oh for pity's sake will you lot stop knocking Budweiser? Someone has to drink it or what will happen to the Gnatspiss Brewers Assoc of America??? Think of all those who will lose their jobs for your inconsiderate knocking of their product! You enjoy drinking your sodypop Denny-Wenny
