Let's say that I will succeed with SN. Wll they know upon finding the body that it was a suicide and not natural death?

They will know you died by poisoning because your lips will turn blue or green. Better off just leaving a note so they don't have to do some kind of autopsy or start a murder investigation.

What you may not be aware of is that after dying by sodium nitrite, your entire corpse takes on a bluish coloration. How severe or longlasting it is I don't know but that's what happens. This has been discussed on other SN threads and I think the PPEH mentions it too.

Here's a medical journal account of a man that attempted wit SN. He survived, but it was an interesting read to me. Does include pictures of the cyanosis. (Not graphic)

Attempted with SN, medical journal article

I didn't read out, did he called ambulance or someone..how they know it was 1h after 15g SN

He probably called himself, since he knew how long it was between ingesting and treatment. Maybe they purposely left out it was a suicide attempt for fear others may try, since they said how much he took.

The medical staff knew he took SN about one hour before arriving at the hospital because the patient himself told them. It's mentioned twice in the linked article.

They say the images show severe poisoning outcome but it doesn't look that bad. Just a bit blue maybe greenish, pretty much like every body looks like when they are dead, especially if they've been dead for awhile and the body goes cold. Which makes sense because a dead body doesn't circulate oxygen either so bassically SN will just make your body look like every dead body.

I've contemplated taking SN at an isolated beach at night at low tide. And then letting high tide do with me what it wants to.
