Well, I know that they only last for 4-6 hours, and I used to take 2 15's every 4 hours so in 24 hours I was taking 240mg. How many would you take at a time?

40 5's per day eguals 200mg per day, alot, but would be worse if they were 10's, 15's, ect. Get off them as soon as you can because they have something in them that will cause you to keep increasing.

I'm just wondering if your taking 5-325's, 5-500's, or what? Either way the acetaminophen level will cause liver failure. 40 5-325's is 13,000 mg of acetaminophen a day. With these 5's it's the acetaminophen that kills you.

I ended up supplementing with plain old morphine sulfate to add to mix with no further acetaminophen added - - it got to an elephant dose - - in fact i have to have a procedure done early February and they must use general anesthetic since I respond so poorly to what they think is a large (non-medical) dose of versed/fentanyl - - - - -  read that - patient is terminally used to most narcotics in large doses!!!

Been to that rodeo three times avisg..................  the best was when they filled my lungs with fluid  (said that i would know how it felt to drown - they were correct...)  and then vacumed the fluid all out  - - - I had been snorting a lot of coke and they were totally amazed that my gag reflex was so highly developed - - they couldnt numb anything up - talk about a sore throat!

I started doing heroin in 1969 in Vietnam - pure 1/4 ounces of China White for $40 - - - didnt have an addiction then - - - but found out in 1996 that i also had hepatitis....... did a years worth of clinical trial experimental for chemo therapy - - many in the trial died....but it worked for 46% - I was lucky - - but the chemo was so brytual i syarted doing the pain pills to cope. Poor choice.....the chemo stopped but the narcs continued..........  so probably taking for almost 10 years in escalating dose - huge doses for just a few years......PM me anytime with questions...

With the amount you are taking i would be more scared to to continue down this path.  Im sure your liver is screaming at you right now.  Listen to what the eagle is saying.  He is a wise man and knows what he is talking about........sara

Dude -  I am a Viet Era Vet and death doesnt really faze me - - i have already seen too much....been reponsible for too much ......but i will tell you that I never saw a man down from a booby trap grenade or a direct mortar hit or even a sucking chest wound that suffered as much as the people with liver failure - - and I have been a patient at the Mayo Clinic -  Indianapolis Methodist Hospital (very good) and IU Med Center in additiion to 4 hospitals in my hometown ........   Your best shot is to quit now and consider your experience a bad dream before it turns into a real life nightmare for you.....its up to you - - and dont give me that BS about not being strong enough (Its too hard...) - - - what a bunch of p88ssies,,,

You really need to listen to everyone and stop asap. If you can't stop on your own, look in to rehab. Are you feeling any pain in your side? Even if your not now, it could happen at any time. Stay on this forum and post as much as you need. You will get so much support while detoxing. I lost my older sister to a overdose. You don't want to put your family or friends through that. My parents are still not handling it and it has been over 3 years. Your life is worth living. Trust me. Please stop now while you still can and before it's too late.
