As someone dealing with chronic pain issues, I'm worried I may have taken too much co-codamol today while trying to manage a severe flare-up. I estimate I've taken around 6000mg over the course of the day as my regular codeine wasn't providing enough relief. I'm experiencing some brain fog and am unsure if I should seek medical attention. I'd prefer to avoid the hospital if possible, as I've had negative experiences there in the past. I'm not trying to misuse the medication - I'm just struggling to cope with intense pain. Any advice on whether this dosage is concerning or how to safely manage my pain going forward would be appreciated. I want to use my medications responsibly but also effectively control my symptoms.
