Thanks so much you guys!! For being there for me thro' this rollercoaster ride! Well, I feel like my head was put into a cement mixer and blended to a mush.....BUT ITS OVER!!
So sorry for the delay in posting, I was soooooo exhausted that I crashed out after driving 3hrs and woke up at noon.....felt SOOOO good to sleep in after soooo long 
This exam is SO DOABLE. I wish I had been calm during the test, I would have done so much better. I panicked so much, I almost fell dizzy in block 5, could barely finish it, ran out and threw up cos I fell so sick with all the acidity etc.....took a good 30 min break and got back in to finish the rest of the battle. Funny thing is, this was what was worrying me all along, and this was probably why I kept delaying taking the test too, and its exactly what happened  I messed up the last few days of looking over FA....it is ALL there....but need to know the concepts before doing FA.
The test had a blend of all subjects almost equally distributed, though I tend to remember all the Neuro that I was worried about anyways, had quite a few weird Cell Molec stuff I had no clue what they were talking about, the Beh Sc and Ethics questions were so out of the loop that I was "what the heck do you want from me??". Had quite a few Endocrine questions with the Renin-Angiotensin, Ca-P04-Vit D that I was never good at.....Micro was mixed in too....Pharm was mostly the graphs from sympathetics and all from FA.
But overall, I felt ok ...if I was lucky to pick the right answer on those that were weird, I will be fine, but if I did not...then too bad....I can't do anything about it anyways...so I am gonna suppress it all.....now comes the waiting part.
You all ROCK!! I couldnt have come this far without your support and I really mean it.. I have long list of names to thank....I will post again in a bit, I have to run all these errands today.....
Feyza....YOU SAID IT!!! the truck hopefully has a PASS on it...thats all I need right now! well make it a HIGH PASS.....please!!!! Hope you are smiling!!

congrats on being done acintya! i'm sure you got the score you wanted 
were you nervous during the exam? and is that why you threw up? i'm so sorry to hear that, especially because i get really nervous too. i'm glad things turned out great anyway.
i was wondering if you had trouble sleeping the night before....that has been my problem for a long time, especially because i get so nervous. so i was wondering what you did to calm yourself down and get a good night's rest before the exam.
i hope you are enjoying your much deserved break!

p4a99:  not yet...I wish they would just tell us and get it over with....end the torture and suspense...I am trying hard to have a good time, with family, traveling etc, suppressing those awful feelings of sitting in the center, feeling tired, wired, blank....
Paheli: please keep sending those thoughts up!! cos I think I have flooded God over with my zillion requests! Good luck with CS prep....
Sleepy_student: I had sent you a pm.....I think if you try and tire yourself out on the previous day like I did with the driving etc, you will just fall asleep. I just told myself, ok I have done whatever I can, now whatever happens is not in my hands....so I slept by midnight...but I think while doing the test, I got very anxious (subconsciously) ...and knowing I had that acidity problem I should have taken my PPI but forgot it in the hurry. Anyways....good luck to you.
And I am still waiting for the results...so lets see what happens.....

Here is your post, maybe you deleted it accidently:
" Thanks for thinking of me My head is still haunted by those memories of sitting in that center, feeling blank, ill, stressed, tired, wired..... AAARGHH how long to suppress....
Paheli: Good luck for CS! I so need those thoughts going wayyy up!! thanks a ton
@sleepy_student: Sorry for the delay in posting....I sent you a pm too. I have been traveling and also running away from the stress of waiting for the results and hence my absence from the forum....
As I am the kind of person that gets very anxious, I was trying my best to sleep at the same time everyday, say by 12 and get up by 7 everyday, but needless to say the last few days before the exam it was near impossible. On the eve of my exam, I had to drive 3 hrs to the center and also stay in a new hotel, so I was very worried about how I would fall asleep on a new bed etc. I lost an hour in the change of time zones too. I had taken Benadryl with me just in case I need it, but thankfully, the driving and the stress had me so physically tired that by midnight, without taking the benadryl, I just fell asleep.
I forgot to take the PPI that I had saved for that day.... I was worried that my acidity (had DU before) might kill me, but in all that stress, I forgot to take it with me to that center, and paid the price
So my advice to you, just try to stay calm, however difficult that might be, tell yourself, ok this is the best I can do, beyond this, things are not in my control, whatever happens, let it happen.... "

Thanks for retyping it, dear Ac. I'm glad to see you're doing fine, you're almost there. Most of the wait is over, and now for sweet release....Will definitely join in the celebration. More so coz my CS is around the corner, and my head is spinning, and I could use a stiff drink. Do you have grape juice??!!
Stay calm, sista! And, stay busy, by planning for the party!

Yes, this is something I meant to share. Deleted posts are visible to Mods. So think very deeply before posting.
You know the same is true regarding all your actions on the internet. Always there is someone watching and it is always stored somewhere that you cannot reach.

Oh p4a99 the magician!! You make it seem so sinister So we have to be careful what we do here huh?? thanks for dredging out my old post! I was trying to edit it, but it said some error and then my post never showed up.
Gogeta!! Thanks for stopping by! Yes I do remember GLOS and TOTALLY agree with what you felt and went through! going thro a mini GLOS a few seconds each day its very natural I guess..
kingsof2005: thanks!! will hang in there!
Paheli: Actually I need to study for CS too, but I just can't seem to look at the FA and focus. I will send you a pm.....you are the best sista

Kalyann, thanks for the wishes buddy, your avi is cool, I like George in GA.
drsvetasm: thanks for stopping by and wishing me luck, if all goes well, I should know 2 days from now....
GOGETAAAA: I need all the good luck....whatever made you think I don't!! I panic every few days and then I think..ok if I fail, I fail, I will just study for it again.....three of my friends I know, did not make it.....so that makes me worry some more....anyways....
GG and Novak! My old friends, how nice to see you! GG, thanks so much for praying for me. I will catch you on yahoo soon.
Novak, I had no idea when I would take it either, my friends and family would keep asking me and got tired of finding out that I had pushed the date....AGAIN....and I finally just took it and they did not know I did until I told them
