Pleasure Sensors

[cabinetman]

I was watching the news and caught part of a report of experimentation of using a "patch" method for the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. It seems the "patch" will affect the "pleasure sensors" in the brain as does the "smokers patch", and included in this is something like a "boozers patch", for those with drinking problems.

Actually I think it it's a great way to go with research. When I first tried to quit smoking I tried the gum and the patch. Both were hard to keep lit. It will be interesting to see how far research will go with "patches". Do ya think that soon we may be seeing a "patch isle" at the drugstore?

Yeah and they also have a patch to replace your heavy duty pain killers. My daughter has a real bad back problem and was on pain killers for years but recently the doctor has put her on these patches which disperse the medicine over a 24 hour period. She said it works real good except towards the end of the 24 hours. She starts looking forward to that new patch each time. So yeah there's no telling what they'll come up with next. We are living and seeing some pretty neat things these days. Heck I bet one of these days they're come up with a safe TS that won't cut your finger off or even a hot dog for that matter.
