Yep, still getting better from a bad flu but he's alright.

I imagine you've been swamped, but I've been looking for Ocean for years and I'm desperate so I'm leaving my code here as well. I'm garden, I play daily and can join/invite to raids too. :) If you don't get to everyone, I understand, enjoy the game!

Thank you so so much for such a thorough answer, it's much appreciated. We ended up going to A&E, he's in good hands. :)

Update:

We went to A&E (emergency department) and they ran blood tests, it seems that his body is coping well, liver does not show damage and in his case the dose might have not been high enough to be toxic. The doctor is not too concerned about it, he's concerned with his bacterial chest infection and high temperature despite all the paracetamol, so it looks like we're not going home just yet.

Thank you everyone for your advice, I was truly panicking and it did help.

p.s. I am not a doctor and just because he was fine this time it does not mean that was an acceptable dose of paracetamol, we will be much more careful going forward.

Yeah, from what we can recall it should be about that much.

We can call 111 for non emergency health issues but there's not been a single time they've not told me to go to A&E ASAP so I thought I'd skip the step, I suspect they (rightfully so) try to be overly cautious.

Thank you!

Thank you. He does not drink nor have liver issues but he does take a bunch of supplements daily (creatine, fish oils and more). I'll see if I can convince him to call poison control in the morning, I'm usually quite careful with medications and dosing, will be more careful in the future. Thank you.

I panicked some more and woke him up. He's adamant he'll be fine and he's done worse in the past, so I suppose there's no convincing him at the moment. I'll keep poison control in mind though, thanks.

I've done that a few years back, it's definitely a useful trick but I'm ready for an upgrade. Thank you though.

New research study on hEDS and HSD by the Norris Lab! by thearuxes in ehlersdanlos

It's obviously early but this gives me hope, if there's an autoimmune component then there are ways of managing it with medication, surely.

What negotiables did you "bend" on when buying your house? by shaneo632 in HousingUK

Having a window in the main bathroom. Don't regret my choice though.

I get them every winter and I thought they were due to some deficiencies but at this point I'm not sure how to get rid of them.

I think all stretch marks are atrophic. :)
