          In severe cases of PMSD like mine, the only treatment is an IV with a drip feed of Pamprin. Damn, I hate having to drag that IV stand around with me every where I go. And they print Pamprin in big pink letters right on the medication bag!

              I also did this during parts of the Eagles Hell Freezes Over tour in '95.
