Quite the contrary. One can never have enough friends. My point was not that the liver does not metabolize the drugs, nor that it is a smart thing to use them if you have liver damage or hepatitis. I am simply saying that they in and of themselves when used properly as directed do not cause liver damage. Now, being on four thousand different drugs along with them probly makes the likelihood of having some damage very likely, unfortunately. Bummer. However, I would rather be on them than something that can give me diabetes or have other insanely dangerous side effects along with liver damage. In regards the acetaminophen, I find it sad that it is bundled with everything, "so safe you can give it to infants"...'but we don't know how or why it works'. Idiocy. I did find some information that methadone can damage internal organs though, and as I was intending to get on it, I am now looking for an alternative long acting painkiller without those dangers. Probly end up on MScontin again, which worked, but virtually stopped my need for a toilet, if ya get my meaning. Anyway, my battle against using more dangerous drugs as the first line of attack against pain because they are "non-addictive" instead of using safer older meds with physically addictive properties in a chronic pain setting continues. Onward Christian soldiers...
Later,
