Two quick things...

(1) What is the half-life of Ativan and how long before it get's into your system and starts working?

(2) Another thing and this scared the devil right out of me but My best friend and room mate have been together for 22 years now. Anyway, I'm sitting here all nervous this morning and suddenly I hear something crashing in the living room and then I hear moaning sounds. Now he is a 260LB man so when he fell, it made a loud BOOM sound. As soon as I heard the moaning I ran like crazy into the living room and saw him laying on the floor keeled over and moaning. Since he is in his 60's I figured maybe he'd falled off the chair and had a stroke. I went into a state of hysteria as I tried to assertain what had happened and he finally told me that spindle in the cfenter portion of the chair had snapped and that he had landed on the floor. You talk abou tsomeone's heart racing...mine was on TURBO!!!!. This guy is a people person and would give you the shirt off of his back and I was in sheer panic that I had lost him but all is ok now. WHEW!!!!. I'm still recovering!.
