Since I'm posting here so much I decided to wait until I had multiple stories to find.

1) FOUND! Part of the Refining Fire 'verse by [info]arwen_kenobi. Specifically the story is Hide and Seek.
BBC!verse, Sherlock/John; Instead of Sherlock being gone for 3 years after Reichenbach it's John. I believe John thinks Sherlock knows he's alive. I also think they might have been in a relationship before hand.  The final minion of Moriarty John takes down is Moran in a warehouse (in America?). This is a different fic from the one where John unknowingly was working for Moran.

2) FOUND! Shift by [livejournal.com profile] messageredacted
BBC!verse, Sherlock/John; Similar to The Great Game in that there are many puzzles to be solved. One had Sherlock jumping from platform to platform. Each with a letter on it to spell a sentence. There were decoy platforms too. (A completely different story: The Burning Game). Later people we being targeted by their initials to spell another sentence. John was one of the targets. For most of this John was in the hospital.

3) FOUND! Explosions, Literal and Otherwise by [livejournal.com profile] starjenni
BBC!verse, Sherlock/John (or pre-slash); Sally POV, Sherlock and John are chasing a criminal who runs into a warehouse, John follows. Before Sherlock can get there the building explodes. Sherlock's in a daze, Sally finds John.

4) FOUND! Doldrums and Deep Waters by Eyebrows2 (FF.net)
ACD(maybe? Victorian Era for sure), Holmes/Watson (maybe Gen?); Some villain is targeting Sherlock by poisoning (or something) his tobacco.  But what they don't realize it that Holmes keeps his in the slipper.  Thus Watson gets the effect.  I'm sorry if it's vague, it's all I can recall from the story.

Other wonderful Stories found in the process:
Alternate #1:
Apotheosis by [livejournal.com profile] mad_maudlin
And one or two of [livejournal.com profile] nickelsandcoats stories
Alternate #4:
Relapse by [livejournal.com profile] hoc_voluerunt (John's enteric fever relapses while on a case)
Undiscovered Country by Katie (Culverton poisons Watson)
The Detective Who Cried Wolf by [livejournal.com profile] rabidsamfan (Sherlock gets sick)
A Lack of Color by [livejournal.com profile] messageredacted (BBC!Sherlock's nicotine patches are poisoned)

Thank you everyone for all your help! There was a lot of digging for some of these. I appreciate it. Thank you.

To 1.: Hm, there's a high probability that this is the one you're NOT searching for, but well, it's the only one I know of that fits your description: Apotheosis (http://10leaguesbeyond.livejournal.com/39138.html#cutid1) by [livejournal.com profile] mad_maudlin.

To 3.: Might be this one: Explosions, Literal and Otherwise (http://starjenni.livejournal.com/8418.html) by [livejournal.com profile] starjenni. There are sereval POVs used, but it still comes very close to what you're describing.

I don't recognize the other two fics, sorry.

Since you say it's not Apotheosis, the other possibility that occurs to me is the Refining Fire 'verse, a series by [livejournal.com profile] arwen_kenobi. John's presumed dead for less than three years, however, in that series. John kept texting Sherlock, but he was using a device provided by Mycroft, who was manipulating both him and Sherlock. John and Sherlock were not in a relationship, but instead were very close friends. The relevant portions of the series are Hide and Seek (John's POV) and Heaven and Hell (Sherlock's POV).

I don't think you're looking for anything by [livejournal.com profile] nickelsandcoats - in the story she wrote in which John was presumed dead for three years, John knew Sherlock had been lied to but couldn't communicate with him, and Sherlock was the one who killed Moran. In another of her stories ("Nothing Lasts Forever") in which John was known to be dead, Moran was killed in a warehouse complex but by Sherlock.

The fourth one sounds vaguely familiar to me, but I think it was the tea that was being poisioned. Watson figures out that he and the cilent have been poisioned.

Does that sound like the one you were looking for? I might have it bookmarked.

If not I hope someone finds the one you're looking for.

I looked through all the bookmarks I have and can't find it. I'll keep looking tomorrow after I get done with work.

All I remember about it is that the tea starts a relapse for Watson's typhoid fever or something, and he yells for Holmes as he stumbles down the stairs.

Okay, I found it and reread it. I don't think it's the one you're looking for though.

Here it is anyways: http://hoc-voluerunt.livejournal.com/1853.html

Re: fic number four.

There's this one. The Undiscovered Country, http://www.liquidfic.org/undiscovered.html which is not the fic you're looking for. It is, however, amazing, and someone tries to poison Holmes and get's Watson insteaad.

There is a poisoned tea fic, but that's not a poisoner, it's Holmes making a terrible mistake whilst doing research, and leaving the arsenic in a teacup. Watson comes home late from work.... and you can guess. If you want this one, I can look for it. I have it somewhere.

There is also, apparently, a poisoned tobacco fic. I have never read it, but I've heard about it.

See, I know that I've read requests for the poisoned tobacco. I know it. I've just never seen it found. I'll find you the tea fic. It just might take a little.

Here's one with poison and the tobacco slipper. It may or may not be the one you're looking for. I also read twenty or so a day, so I'm still looking for the tea fic, but don't worry, I'll find it.

There's a #4 story set in BBC where the nicotine patches are poisoned - A Lack of Colour by [livejournal.com profile] messageredacted. Could that be it?

Could number 4 be Doldrums and Deep Waters (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5692121/1/Doldrums_and_Deep_Waters), by any chance? :) Even if it isn't, it's well worth a read!!

Oh, I'm so glad!! And you're more than welcome, considering your search unearthed quite a few poisoned!Sherlock fics I haven't read yet, and it's a genre I'm always very willing to partake in ;)
