    Well it tasted quite nice, but I had forgotten one minor thing. I'm allergic to nettle stings.
    Next time, just stick to fukang green tea....

    It's not nettle tea, it's a nettle infusion.

    After my triple IM last year, a friend did tough mudder. He was feeling bad afterwards. I told him to MTFU. He ignored me, and had disconnected a muscle from a tendon. Operation plus 3 months off work.

    If you do die, I will not be a pall bearer unless there are 12 of us.....
    No, don't need to speak to a healthcare professional. Took a little antihistamine.

    To be fair I heard your ex-wife used to get the same symptoms, but in her case I heard it was recommended she stop entertaining the local rugby squad.

    Not being an expert, but wouldn't drinking nettle tea be somewhat similar to drinking domestos.
