[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's not be too harsh on OP or her DH over the acetaminophen issue. When you are in blinding pain, you're not thinking straight and are desperate to try anything to make it stop. If a grown man is doubled up on the floor crying, he's probably past the point of caring what's in the pills if there's a chance it might work. I have taken way too many Advil at once before because knowing it might give me an ulcer later on in life was outweighed by knowing it would make the hideous cramping stop right now. He'll know for next time, which hopefully there won't be.[/quote]

OP here - thanks for this.  I was really worried that DH had taken too much by the time I got to him, but I didn't know that you could never mix the two.  I did the math, and he was under the limit on the bottle, so I didn't freak out.  He definitely wasn't thinking straight in taking it either - he was on the floor crying and saying that he was a big guy so it would be fine.  In the meantime, I was consulting google and getting three kids under 5 out of bed and ready to go to the ER (no sitter available).  [/quote]
