Flagyl was Re: [at-l] Re: water purification

Not that this would apply to any of the hikers on this list...but one thing 
that isn't often discussed when we discuss Flagyl is that you CANNOT drink 
alcohol while taking this medication. This includes alcohol based mouthwashes 
and medications such as Nyquil.  The warning would be on the prescription 
bottle, but this time they really mean it. You will have a possibly severe 
reaction with abdominal cramping, headaches, nausea, vomiting. You won't die, 
but you may feel like it.  I've seen this reaction more than once and 
wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Be careful out there.

Back to hanging out and watching TV.

If you're going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance.
