I think it used to build up in my system until it made me loose-bowelled and nauseous, at which point I couldn't swallow anything anyway. Then come back five days later when it had built up in my system again.

The side effects don't suggest this is a pattern, and although it works in my head I don't know if it can medically have a cumulative effect, but the symptoms are apparently common.

Ditto codeine. If I'd been able to read the side effects through my pain-squinted eyes, I wouldn't have prolonged a bout of food poisoning with the sweats and hallucinations in my 20s (codeine based tablets) AND I'd have saved myself a week long migraine a few years back (prescribed codeine for terrible headaches). One addiction I will never be in danger of acquiring!

I get what you're saying though, V.
One of my friends nearly had me convinced I had an STD when I was a virginal 15yo, after looking up my symptoms in her Dad's medical book. Sometimes you can worry too much.
