Re: I am radioactive right now.
Unfortunately, since my kids are all underaged, I have to go through security and escort them to the gate. I plan on taking all the info on my NST with me.

I hate to bearer of bad news but right all rain water is about 180 times more radioactive them max guidelines from fukushima. the entire pacific is deadly right now. we are all radio active and dieing. Truth sucks. sorry and you can delete this if you cant handle the truth.

They pumped an amazing lot of 'dirty-water' into the ocean in the first few months and I strongly suspect they still do... Where will all that water used to cool the darn thing go. Oh and lets not forget all the steam that went right into the atmosphere when they initially sprayed the reactors in melt-down.

Re: I am radioactive right now.
Unfortunately, right now I'm more concerned about what the TSA will do to me than I am about what the radiation will do to me.

I hear you. Best of luck with that. Make sure to bring the NST paperwork with you.

Re: I am radioactive right now.
Well, my radioactive body didn't set off any alarms at the airport. Apparently my superpower is to be able to hide my radioactivity from sensors. But it also means in order to vanquish villains I have to hang around with them for thirty years until they develop cancer.

I was administered Persantine, in addition to the Thallium, during my test. Persantine is very unpleasant for about two minutes. Didn't like that at all.
I have no plans to repeat that test. Ever.

Re: I am radioactive right now.
I've heard about the Persantine. They told me they they would have to give it to me if I couldn't get my heart rate up to 140. I was going to stay on that treadmill come hell or high water.NickC wrote:I was administered Persantine, in addition to the Thallium, during my test.

Aw g'wan. It was your lead lined overcoat & tin foil hat that stopped the radiation.LeftyStrat wrote:Well, my radioactive body didn't set off any alarms at the airport.

Re: I am radioactive right now.
I have the opposite problem: heart rate spikes to over 200 with little exertion. I got pulled off the standard treadmill test, for that reason, before it could be completed; thus the nucular ;>) stress test.LeftyStrat wrote:I've heard about the Persantine.

Did I mention that Persantine is unpleasant? In case I forgot, it bears repeating ..... Persantine is unpleasant (for about two minutes). Have you ever noticed how two minutes of sheer pleasure goes by in the wink of an eye, but unpleasantness seems to last an eternity (or longer)?
