[TPIN] antihistamines----impact on playing

[Dave Malysh]

I really prefer the cetirizine-type antihistimines (Reactine in Canada, 
Zyrtec in the US) as they don't seem to have the side-effect profile 
(including drowsiness and drying one up) of the older antihistimines.

Dizzy Gillespie on playing trumpet:


"Some days you get up and put the horn to your chops and it sounds pretty
good and you win, some days you try and nothing works and the horn wins.
This goes on and on and then you die and the horn wins."
