All the galaxy gas he's huffing is slowly depleting his reserves of vitamin B12. Eventually his body won't produce enough myelin then he'll start suffering severe neurological problems. If he lies to his doctor about his abuse of nitrous oxide they won't be able to diagnose him as he won't show a B12 deficiency on a blood test. All the nitrous abuse oxidized the vitamin B12 making it useless.Nitrous is undetectable
His abuse would show up on a blood test with having elevated homocysteine and methylmalonic acid levels, but normal B12. These tests are non routine in regular medical bloodwork and not part of any drug test panel.
He can attempt to take all the B12 supplements he wants but it won't work. Only by quitting the gas will his body start metabolizing B12 again.
Nick suffering severe neurological damage, then lying to the ER staff stating he's clean causing delays in proper treatment that will make the damage permanent is the likely final outcome.
