Whatever you say Stink Fist.

Also, by this time, DF may have reached v1.0

I started playing back in 2D, well before there were any tutorials. Still play that version sometimes.

On an unrelated note, adding lemon juice will give a false negative for marijuana tests.

Now you would never need to use that knowledge, would you?

Of course, the new cannabinoid receptor drugs were looking really promising, until people started getting depressed on them.

[EDIT]

First little red-ish blisters on the 3rd day. On 5th day my belly and chest was entirely covered with small red blisters.
But that kind of reaction obviously is totally subjective and I was taking antibiotics at the same time (mainly Augmentin).

So I decided to go with the big guns. Tramadol, some 15-20 drips a day, mostly before physiotherapy.
But I've heard a lot of contrasting opinions about it, from "Great" to "OMG MORPHINE", and everything inbetween.
I've been very satisfied with it. Totally effective and very little side-effects (day-time drowsiness).

You work with this stuff, what do you think about it?

Just saw that. Yeah, the rash and blisters would be unlikely if you'd had prior exposure. I'd be much more inclined to point the finger at your antibiotics or another agent.

Oh, and I forgot to translate paracetamol into acetominophen for all you folks in the USA. They're the same, but we use the British nomenclature in my home country of Australia.

As for good old tramadol, not bad as far as opioids go, but you gotta be careful when you give it to the oldies. They tend to get the serotonergic side effects more often, and always check their seizure history. Plus it's not that useful if you're on stronger opioids in combination due to the partial antagonistic effect. Abuse is lower than others like oxycodone, but I still see people hooked on it, mostly due to the best intentions of their doctor. But hey, whatchagonnado?

[EDITEDIT]

Oh, and for IndonesiaWarMinister, you'd be surprised about what some people's religious beliefs mean regarding their medications. It doesn't happen that often, but there are some who will feel uncomfortable even taking a single tablet while fasting.

As a qualified pharmacist, I always recommend using paracetamol for pain relief before anti-inflammatories, due to the reduced side effect profile. But any use of painkillers should be a maximum of 3-5 days unless specified by your GP.

From my point of view, the more people who know about or play DF, the better.

If they happen to be short, bearded and speak with a Scottish accent, so much the better.

Only Geologists and Dwarf Fortress players get this excited about pictures of rocks. Although for Geologists it's professional, whereas for Dwarf Fortress players it's more like porn.
