new here
Hello...I am new here and just have a second to post...I will post more later on about my situation if anyone is interested ...but I am concerned over something. I recently have come to the realization that I have a problem and have been abusing vicodin off and on for a few months now. I go weeks without taking any and legally get an rx from my neuro for migraines, but usually go through about 20 pills in a weeks time to a few days at a time. Most recently had my rx renewed on wed and today is friday and I think I have one left. That's a lot right? Anyway, today I think I took a total of 10 tabs of the 7.5/750mg, but it just dawned on me about the tylenol. I am so worried now that I am going to end up with liver failure. I know that a person is not supposed to take more than 4 grams in a 24 hr period, but does anyone know how much tylenol can really cause problems with the liver? I didn't take the vicodin all at once, pretty much spread out through the day, and I feel "fine". Any input would be appreciated. thanks in advance. I am glad I found this site and look forward to getting the support I need at this point in my life.

Welcome to the site...love to hear your story. I don't know much about vicodin myself but I'm sure theirs people on here that can give you advice on that. All I know is you can get clean you can get off them and get help. Keep coming back and read the forums, come on the chat if you want. Just spend time here and it will help you.
Everyones different but vicodin has the most acetaminophen in it that's why it's not wise to excess taking more,most Dr. now know this and prescribe norco that has 325 mg. a lot less than vicodin,anyway I heard it's a pretty grisly death and can happen to you at any time,it's very toxic.Does your liver hurt?feeling nauseous,that's one sign.Be very carefull!
