ok sorry not sure where to post this I think it is basic i guess but here it goes.

so i was taking norflex and higher than recommended doses about 600 mg and since have had a terrible case of restless leg issues i mistook it i think for withdrawal from opiates i have been using loperamide because i ran out of fentayl cuz i am a dumb smuck and this isnt about the loperamide it normally works really well for me on a once a day dosing but i started after a few months of using it getting restless legs after what seemed like 12 hrs that was calmed but not eliminated by a muscle relaxant of either the norflex or butabutal (florinal). I was running low on the norflex so i stoped taking it not really expecting many side effects cuz i didnt find many reported.

^ more like back history
below if more of the current issue

got the restless legs took the last of it to get rid of it. ran out. took the butatbutal it seemed to work but only for like an hour i redosed what i thought was only a few times but the bottle was new and when i woke the next day only about 20ish were left calculated i took 11.5 grams of apap for the 8-60 hrs all i have had is nasusa vomiting and diarrheal issues yes i know i should have gone to the hospital but i didnt i have been ok with doses around 7.5 grams before but i felt like 11.5 was another story when i figured out what must have happened i took about 2250 mg of sam-e since in animal studies it has been known to help so basically my ? is when do you know if you are in the clear? when should i have jandance symptoms? pale stools? yellow skin? dark urine? and what is the dark urine exactly? dark yellow mine is always dark yellow or is is more of a brown? sorry its long just thought you would need a fullish history

thanks so much everyone! and dont say go to the er i wont every time i do because i used to be a cutter they lock me up in a phyc. ward and i would rather die
 
well that person seems really insane and more stupid and took way way more than me and did it twice and drank a bunch of wine the second time i almost feel it is more likely that there just was not even 30 pills in the bottle and the pharmacy got in wrong. it is like a small pharmacy that always seems to be getting things wrong and i am always nasueased and vomiting but i am assuming that they did put 30 pllls in the bottle idk i felt as if i was aware as to how many i took i feel thought i took half of the amount that it seems i took idk i guess just no one can really help me
 
You could have some serious liver damage.

I urge you to go have tests done. Just because you seem alright now doesn't mean that you will be in the long run.

Everyone's body is different so just because someone else is ok doesn't mean anything either.
 
if i could i really would i have no car no way to get to a hospital not only that but because i used to be an iv user i have no veins to have any blood drawn i needed it for a surgery and they couldnt after 4 ppl and two hospitals before a surgery and had me sign some paper and didnt draw the blood is there any test that isnt drawing blood?
 
well now i am at 72 hours and i am feeling much better than i even normally do. no signs of jaundice.

Damn......There isn't a vein left anywhere??

Idk what else to tell you other than I wouldn't want to leave my liver unchecked after what you have put it through.
 
there really isnt.. and i agree with you and i dont want to i guess there is only blood test if they could just take a knife to me and get blood that way i would do it that way even.or i bet i could get a vein but they wont let you do it on yourself i have tried =[

I thought they could do tests on urine but maybe that is just kidneys.....

What about CT scans or something? There has got to be some way to check for damage.....

With CT scan they wouldn't be able to check the enzyme levels, thats only with blood tests I believe.
 
The problem is that you could have live damage without ever knowing. It won't necessarily present signs right now. So there is no way to know if you're "in the clear" unless you get testing done.

I know that not everyone has the option (for whatever reason) of going to a doc or hospital to get a test done.

Good luck and hopefully you dodged a bullet or as you say, the bottle didn't have as much in it as you thought.
 
well thank you to the people that have posted i just know how impossible it is for them to draw blood on me. i had hard veins to begin with and cant believe i ever was an iv user. for my surgery all they could get was a way to put meds in that was after the 30ish sticks and it was a leaky way in or something cuz it caused swelling and a rash at the site. it was just terrible. i had a septic wrist.

your right i know you are i just don't want you to be i guess i wish i just had a car then i could have them stick me a million times and have them try i could walk to the hospital. i guess i could call an ambulance but i already am being sued times more than you could imagine for un paid bills some medical bills cuz i am too sickly to get a job
 
thanks i am drinking tons of water but its been like 87 hrs so too late to try and vomit it up. still no signs of jandance though which is good. i have been drinking herbs known to clean the liver.
 
93ish hours so no jaundice symptoms but i just vomited up what i had for lunch. and i have a headach and stomach
