Now that X-plane 10 has become a serious contender in the market, as their panels and aircraft/gauge creation, and flying models are great. I was considering going over to that from FSX.

Check your google reference again...perhaps that was an unusual circumstance. Lasix 40mg iv push is a very common dose. I have given doses as high as 160mg, but that is very rare.
Lasix raises heart rate in emergency treatment of CHF. Lasix decreases cardiac output in emergency treatment of CHF. Lasix makes acute CHF worse. For the first hour, or more, the effects of Lasix are dangerous to the patient. Lasix is a stress test that kills. We should listen to Dr. Wesley and stop killing our patients.
