...Although hard to read, product inserts include some terms with which everyone is familiar, specifically, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, insomnia, malaise and muscle aches as well as the ever-popular "unknown dangers to nursing mothers." Yes, these can actually be the side effects of the drug your doc has prescribed but remember: the drug company lists every symptom the people in their test groups report - and it doesn't "blank" the reports against placebo. People are very suggestible, (Do you feel nausea? - "well come to think of it..."). Some of them may happen to have a hangover or gastrointestinal...

In training, you can't induce the fear of the unknown - you always know the exercise will end and you'll go home. The worst thing for us would have been to lose the sensation for life. I thought I would end up like Eli Cohen, hanging in the city square. You lose faith in reality. You can train people to survive the pain but not the unknown...
