[RC] Drugs and Riding - Carolyn Burgess

Actually, Tylenol (acetaminophen) will wreck your liver, which is why it is a no-no in combination with alcohol (another liver wrecking substance).  You should always strictly follow the dosing instructions on Tylenol or anything that contains acetaminophen.

Oh Crap Angie....thanks for the warning.  You were just going to let me "accidently off myself" weren't you.  ;-)
 
Oh, I talked to my buddy, Dr. Tom a while ago on the phone,  the Shore to Shore ride is having wonderful weather, a little cooler than usual for there.  He was the treatment vet the first day.  I told him and Joni and I were going to come back year after next and do it.  It's a GREAT escape from the Alabama August weather.

In the 7 years I've been teaching I know of two students who
have "attempted suicide" with Tylenol. If I heard the rumors right,
one is on dialysis and the other is not healthy and requires
medications for her kidney damage. I didn't hear about any alcohol
involved but it sounded like they trashed their kidneys. I figure as
dehydrated as we get, a little has got to go farther when you take it.

If I take any now I take 2, but on my first 100 I took it *often*
because I thought that's what all 100 milers did and I'd better
follow the rules. Turned out I didn't need it and I was just trying
to look like a 100 miler eating those things.
