"Faiello said Cruz, a financial analyst, began having seizures after he gave her the anesthetic Lidocaine on April 13, 2003, while she was being treated with laser treatment for hair growth on her tongue."I've been doing the "eewie, eewie, EEWIE" dance in my chair just thinking about it. Ick.

I heard about this on the radio the other night. The doctor who called in to the radio station said that it's not actually hair, but a discoloration of the papillae(sp?) (taste buds) that can be caused by some medications. Still pretty icky, but at least it's not hair. Google "brown hairy tongue" if you REALLY want more deets.
Well, there's my two cents for the day. Also, can you tell I wanted to be Nurse Nancy when I was a child?
