Can't sue. My friend has always avoided tylenol. 3 years ago, after a very serious injury, that state is serious about narcotics, and he couldn't tolerate celebrex. The MD told him to take 3 arthritis strenght tylenol(650mg) every 4 hours and 5 ibuprofen no sooner than every 3 hours. This was well above the label directions, unless prescribed by MD. MD did a liver workup and said it would be no problem. My friend was able to reduce his intake to 2-3 ASTs every 4 to 5 hours, and 3-5 ibuprofen with them, after about two years. He developed skin problems, and happened across a pain management clinic across the state line, and ceased all the tylenol and ibuprofen. After breaking a leg and weathering a hurricane, doctor told him recently the leg hasn't healed because of leukemia, and when he went for chemo, his hepatitis was too bad for chemo. Never had either of those before, nor any symptoms of hepatitis. Computer research on websites indicate the tylenol probably killed his liver.

A couple weeks weeks after lowering my dose, i noticed the above symptoms along with depression and feeling out of place. I've read that hypothyroidsm causes weight gain but im losing weight becuase of not eating well a fast pulse. So could an underactive thyroid be causing this?

When I was a kid the only cancer you ever heard about was lung cancer. I never heard about skin cancer, testicular cancer, breast cancer, bowel cancer. And the only people who ever got cancer were old people or those who smoked.

These days everyone's getting it, at all ages.
