Eric,
If a thing causes consternation, then it is a consternating situation.
You won't find the world in the dictionary, most likely, but since
English allows word developement as long as you follow the rules, it is
a valid word.
Consternation is far more serious than either "being annoyed" or
"feeling disconcerted."
If you don't believe me, you can ask Sam! <G>
