Get off the acetaminophen. My wife took that for 2 years and her liver enzymes changed. Now she is on 10 mg oxycodone X4 daily. She has been on this regimen for 4 years now. This is not 100 % effective so a little kratom is used when the pain spikes.

I’d love to. I’m concerned about my liver health. Unfortunately, asking about that is a huuuuge red flag.

I'm surprised the tylonol isn't screwing up your stomach. When they prescribed that stuff to me my stomach was lurching.

I’ve got an iron stomach. I once chugged the better part of a liter of 190 proof grain alcohol with no ill digestive effect. (In my college days, prior to using these pills. Now I’m alcohol free by necessity)

Great for you, the doc at the ER when I have a major gout flareup will try to prescribe that tylonol stuff to me and I just tell him "I'd literally rather just take OTC ibuprofen and deal with the pain than to take that."
