Orlando Woman Says She Was Sickened By Aqua Dots
.
Jennifer Hough said when she couldn't get the beads to stick together with water, she put them in her mouth.
"Now I feel Idiotic, but at the time it worked. It made their little toys work and they had fun with them," said Hough.
Hough said she didn't feel well and eventually couldn't remember eight hours of her day. Her husband told her that she stumbled through their home and still took care of the children.
"I laid down on this couch to take a nap and that's the last thing I remember," said Hough.
Hough went to the hospital and had to stay there for three nights. Doctors found Benzo in her system. The drug is linked to GHB, which is also known as the date rape drug.
Last week, U.S. safety officials recalled millions of Chinese made Aqua Dots. They said the toys have the same chemical that metabolizes into GHB.
"She's been through most of the symptoms and the last one was death. So it really scared me," said Debra David, Hough's mother.
Hough said she still has two more tests to go through to see how the GHB affected her nervous system.
There have only been two cases where a child fell into a coma after swallowing Aqua Dots. There have been no reported deaths.

you put like dozens of those little beads together to make little toy designs right? so she seriously stuffed like a handfull of this shit into her mouth to get it all wet and working or whatever? i mean she said it was working afterwards and they had fun with it. that just sounds pretty fucking stupid to me in the first place whether or not the stuff did have ghb.

"Benzo" is in reference to a class of drugs, benzodiazepenes, such as xanax, klonopin, GHB (in this case), or valium.

GHB will not show as a benzo on a drug test. It must be specifically tested for and it is out of your system in like 12 hours. Theres somethin else goin on here. http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/ghb/ghb_testing.shtml

I know what benzos are... but this article made Benzo sound like a drug, not a class of drugs.
