I assume ER team did not do stomach lavage or induce emesis because of you had taken the pills long enough so those measures are no longer effective. Acetaminophen level was checked and I assume they gave you the antidote, i.e. acetyl cysteine which probably causes your current stomach symptoms. Furthermore, if they believed your story, a total dose of 4 gm (8 x 500 mg) is not life threatening.
