Opioids Paracetomol overdose? Failed CWE?

Hi everyone, to cut a long story short I bought some paracetamol mixed with codeine and caffeine. The tabs contained 500mg with 8mg of codeine and 30mg of caffeine and I crushed up very finely with a blender a total of 16 grams of paracetamol but I think luckily I only drank about a 1/4 of that so about 4/5 grams I would say. I'm scared I made a mistake during CWE by grinding the powder too finely so it passed through the kitchen roll although I was very carefull and put 3 high quality paper towels together then folded them twice making a total of 12 layers and although I repeated this twice and although the solution became much clearer they was clearly still some left in there and I got a clump of paracetamol caught in the paper towell and I repeated this process twice over but after drinking it about 1/2 an hour later I began to have stomach cramps and they are slightly worse today but I dont know if this is due to codeine withdrawal or possible liver failure. Theres no yellowing of my skin or eyes, I feel sick but no vomiting, stomach cramps, urine is clear and im drinking plenty of water I have been subscribed codeine phosphate but cant get it until Monday (I have been involved in a serious motorcycle accident on the way to work one day)

Any advice would be appreciated, im scared please help. Thanks.
 
Sound like you performed a pretty good CWE.

Just a few questions. How much water all up did you use? Was it cold?

And sorry I couldent interpret your post %100, but did you say you've filtered the mixture 2 times through a cloth that was 12 layers thick?
 
Hi, yes correct it was high quality kitchen towel and yes it was cold although I used about 200ml of water then squeezed out the sediment with my fist and cloudy stuff came out although there wasn't much of it but I thought it must be something else as nothing was left after the final filter. The final liquid turned out cloudy but in way milky. I'm pooing myself right now as Ive been reading about people who don't realized they OD'd and die a painful slow death a week later. I'm never touching this crap again. im 6ft 2, 63kg. Do you think ill be ok?
 
Squeezing the filter, on your final filter, isn't such a good idea. It's really hard to say wether you've squeezed through too much APAP or not. And nobody knows what condition your liver was in before this scenario.

If you think you are in danger it's a good idea to seek medical help.

Your methods seem okay, and I wouldent think a 'one off' with too much APAP would be too much of a concern. But you can never be too safe when it comes to important bodily organs.

Pill dyes can make a CWE look cloudy.

And sorry, when I refer to APAP, I mean paracetamol.

Edit: also, you do realise you've got that caffeine in the final mix? That's a lot of caffeine, that amount would make my guts churn for a day or so, involving a few frequent trips to the toilet.

Yeah your stomach problems are the caffeine and codeine as likely as the paracetemol. Unless you use an absurd quantity of water, use hot water, or can see physical chunks in your final solution, your CWE probably went fine.
 
Even if you took the whole 4g of APAP, if this was not a regular thing and you were healthy you probably wouldn't die. I've known people who heavily abused vicodin for a long time before having problems and would take 12-16 pills at once two times a day. This is not a smart thing to do and it is very dangerous. Most likely you filtered most of the APAP out, but you have 480mgs of caffeine in there. That could turn your stomach a bit especially if you don't normally ingest much caffeine otherwise.
 
Ya don't worry about the paracetamol it's definitellyyyyyy just the caffeine. I mean there's no way to know for sure but the CWE appeared to remove at least SOME of the APAP in there and in doing so would make it far below the amount to make you fear for your life.

On the other hand, CWE's do nothing for the caffeine in the pill (as is said above).
 
if you continued doing a sloppy CWE everyday then you could OD a week from now but if you give your liver a chance to heal and your eyes or gums arnt yellow yet and your still up and walking around able to come on BlueLight and make a thread then youll be fine just give the drugs a rest and talk to your doctor about extended release stronger opioids without acetaminophen in them if you really truly do need high dose around the clock pain relief cause continuing down this path will kill ya very quickly I almost did myself in at age 18 with T3's T1's and Vicodin/percocets not thinking about my apap intake but lucklily I survived I had to switch to something easier on the liver oxycodone but then after I stopped that I went on to heroin which gave me a few kidney problems and lots of other problems that stem from illegal drug use.
your body especially your liver is very resilient and heals itself remarkably well on its own but you need to let it do its thing and stop making it process al these drugs.
even I fyou do a perfect extraction you still got all that caffeine which can cause some of the problems you mentioned too its all around bad for your health.

P.S. your doctor could prescribed you extended release codeine pills which only have codeine in them as an active ingredient that would be your best bet as codeine isn't very addicting at all compared to stronger opioids.
 
I feel u. Been there, done that. It's happened where I've done CWE & left it o/n in the fridge, the next day drank up... & once i felt it working (thus faculty returned) it occurred to me I'd done too much & it was scary as. BUT like the responses say - if you've stopped & yr posting on here, yr prob alright.
peace
