So I discovered this morning that I have some of the recalled acetaminophen, and now I'm trying to decide what to do about it.
When's the last time you took any?

When's the last time you took any?
A few days ago. I've taken almost half the bottle with no extra iron in my diet.
I just called the number and filled out a request for an information packet/return kit. Seems like a lot of effort for a generic brand $2 bottle of not!tylenol. Ah well, I'm part of the consumer process, right?
At least I don't take it very often. Now, if we start having problems with Excedrin, there's going to be issues.
I took two of a listed batch, the day before the recall. I've been trying not to think about it, telling myself it was only two.

How is dietary iron relevant (or, is this a joke I'm too fuzzyheaded to get)?
The bad acetaminophen has bits of iron in the capletts.
eta: metal shavings from some machinery, I think.
I know, but is it more of a problem if you take an iron supplement, or something? I was just wondering why Ailleann mentioned it.
Cindy, I was just making a joke about the metal in the pills.
My humor, it is often obtuse.
I do not have any recalled tylenol. I do have, or will, new clothes.
Have any of you who are larger than single digits ever shopped here?

I found some amazing deals there. My favorite thing that I didn't buy is this coat in black: [link]

So's my head, so you can understand why I wasn't sure. Sorry, I just wanted to know if I should worry about one more thing.
Nah, you're good Cindy. I mean, taking too much iron can be a problem too, but it's not going to cut up your stomach.
I've yet to see Grease from beginning to end.
I could introduce you to my sister. It's her favorite movie. She's made me watch it hundreds of times growing up. And we did a "Grease" play.
I bought her a special edition dvd that came in a Pink Ladies satin jacket when she was waiting to have her twins. Because now I don't have to watch it with her.
