Radioactive Medicine Tastes Weird

Never before have I been given an orange and blue pill that comes in a plastic tube inside a vial made of lead and been told I should not touch the medicine with my hands. I don't know whether I'm supposed to feel anything or whether it's psychosomatic, but I swear my throat feels oddly constricted. Of course it might be because I haven't been allowed to eat anything since last night and can't for another hour. At least now in the interim I can have liquids. Never before has a Horizon Organic vanilla milk pouch tasted so delicious.
