ATTENTION! ATTENTION! ATTENTION! IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE CAME IN CONTACT WITH OR READ MATERIAL WRITTEN BY RACHEL FROM THE BLOG “GRASPING FOR OBJECTIVITY IN MY SUBJECTIVE LIFE” DURING THE DATES 8/20/09 TO 8/24/09 AND HAVE SINCE CONTRACTED THE MOPEY MINDYS, THE NERVOUS NELLIES, THE SLEEPY SUSIES OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF MENTAL DISTURBANCE, YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO A SETTLEMENT. COMMENT NOW FOR A CLAIM EVALUATION TO SEE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO BE INCLUDED IN A NOW-PENDING CLASS-ACTION APOLOGY!
Rachel was found to be taking an allergy drug to which she had all, yes ALL of the side effects cited in the “Discontinue use and call your doctor immediately” list. However, this was not discovered until late Monday night, when after four days of stress, near misses with tears, irritability, sleepiness yet sleeplessness and TOTAL lack of sense of humor, she broke her principal of not reading the side effects on medicines to discover that she was one of those rare exceptions to the “Allergy medicines can’t make you a maniacal raving crazy person” rule.
After discontinuing use immediately, Rachel has returned to “normal”, and has decided that phlegm in perpetuity is a better option (for EVERYONE) than total lack of emotional control.
So, if you believe that you or a loved might have been affected by this blight in her and her blog’s existence, please APPLY NOW now to be included in the pending class-action apology and don’t miss your chance for JUSTICE!
If you wish to be excluded from, or object to this settlement, you must file your objection and/or request for exclusion no later than September 30, 2009.

So sorry Rachel, maybe you can find a better alternative after all that gets out of your system.
I am sorry you are having such a hard time. I always read the side effects just in case and I actually had to discountine and antibiotic because I was having some of the rare but not life threatening side effects. My doctor actually wanted me to keep taking it since they were not life threatening. I chose not to. I hope you feel better soon, and you don't have to apologize you weren't in your right state of mind.
I do want in on the class action suit as your health effects my life. I cannot wait for the blog everyday and the more the better. See, in life, everything we do has a trickle down effect. So, I want my old Rachel back, phlegm and all. Maybe I should sue you for being habit forming. Seriously, how about the little red pills we all are now on the list because we bought, do they not help? You must get better.
Next thought, try Tylenol for severe sinus/allergy, it can't hurt and does not make you a zombie, not even sleepy.
Oh dear – I would definately take the phlegm too.
I've had the nervous Nellies. You're buying my lunch on Monday.
oh geez…sorry you had all the bad reactions, but this is kinda funny!
scott had really bad side effects from lortab last week…he was pretty crazy…and cranky!
The only syptom I get from reading your blog is laughter! You are too funny.
Talk to my attorney. ; )
I'd say the whole thing was worth it. Look at this blogging gem that came out of it!
So glad you're back to your normal self! Maybe there's another allergy medicine out there for you that allows you to keep your sanity
I'm glad you are feeling better. I love the blog.
I think I am supposed to say I'm sorry that you are sick (and I am) but this post was absolutley brilliant and you made me laugh.
Now cough up (get it?) my comment settlement
Hope you are getting better Rachel.
Hope you're better soon. I just wish my ear would start functioning normally.
