Jeez Louise, and hour?? at one time. Have these guys ever heard of hyper fractional radio thereapy, break it down into two times a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, but only half (or a little more than half) each time.

Gets the job done quicker, with less side effects I'm told, plus only half the time each time on the table. Might not be very convenenient if you have to travel a good distance.

Otherwise, hang in there, anything you can do to pass the time, like sleep will help. Try books on tape if the cd doesn't work.
