I got super glue on my hands like 10 or 20 minutes ago. They said something about using nail polish remove to aid in it's removal from skin.

Well, nail polish remover has alcohol, but I don't have any. I tried to use %50 rubbing alcohol to get it off my hands.
Didn't work.

There was some pain running up my right arm. Now my abdominal area hurts. Kind of like a bad stomach ache, but my liver or something makes more sense.

The pain started shortly after coming into skin contact with the super glue.

    Hot water and soap helps but like the others said in a day or so you'll wear it off.

    Nail polish remover has acetone not alcohol. But don't worry. The glue will wear off in a day or so. Quicker if you actually wash your hands like a normal human would.

    Super glue on your skin won't make harm you at all unless you ingest it. So your fine. Honestly, it will come off in a day or two slowly but its not harmful, just annoying. Try using stronger rubbing alcohol and if you want it off fast use nail polish remover. The pains are just a coincidence.

    you are not going to be in any danger from the super glue. super glue was invented as a way to patch up soldiers in the field. i have put super glue on some pretty deep open wounds and have been fine every time. sounds like you might be letting your anxiety get the best of you.

    i suppose its possible to absorb the polyisocyanate fumes into the skin while its still liquid but after it goes solid , no. the isopropyl alcohol went into the skin and blood making you sick. its temporary . you will breath it out of the blood. if your sure it was the glue then its the glue. next time wear gloves
