Lidocaine s most common adverse effects—like those of other local anesthetics—are neurologic paresthesias, tremor, nausea of central origin, lightheadedness, hearing disturbances, slurred speech, and convulsions. These occur most commonly in elderly or otherwise vulnerable patients or when a bolus of the drug is given too rapidly. The effects are dose-related and usually short-lived seizures respond to intravenous diazepam. In general, if plasma levels above 9 mcg/mL are avoided, lidocaine is well tolerated.

Hearing disturbances attributable to contrast agents are extremely rare. The hearing loss in this patient developed more than 1 hour after the injection of iohexol, without any evidence of other causes. The authors suggested that the hearing disturbance might have been attributable to cochlear impairment caused by a delayed allergic reaction or chemical toxicity of the contrast medium.

It the main reason for the stratification strategy is contaminant control in [he occupied zone, the same strategy should be applied in winter conditions, too. Thus, the selected hearing method has to fulfill two requirements to siip-pttrt the creation of the vertical stratification and not to create disturbing airflows into the hall. In this case one option would be the floor heating method see Fig. 8.16c. Additionally, one should consider the prevention of boundary layer flows along the outer walls using, for example, passive methods. -... 

The effect of the disturbance of the supply airflow on the plumes is presented in Fig. 8.39. The heat removal effectiveness j and contaminant removal effectiveness are presented as functions of the penetration factor P of the plume, which is the ratio of penetrated plume airflow rate to the whole plume airflow rate. The total heat load is 60 W m"- and the power of one hear source is 500 W. The supply airflow rate is 8 L S m -. 

There are two other related sources of environmental disturbances, seismic and acoustic vibration. Optical testing facilities should be located far from highways and railroad lines. The test hardware should be isolated from the building structure to avoid seismic disturbances. Acoustic disturbances are often overlooked and can be a bigger problem than seismic. Loud noises of any sort are a problem. The sub normal hearing frequency noise made by many air conditioning and handling units is often an unforeseen problem. 

ANSWER Frankly, at this point, we have only anecdotal evidence. And as Dr. Schuster mentioned yesterday, people s responses can be very misleading. I could cite three individuals who attribute some mood disturbances to their prior MDMA use, but one wonders how much their reports are based on what you want to hear.
