About 3 months ago I took 40mg of generic amphetamine salts (in 2 20mg pills). Stupidly, not knowing the risks, I was outside for most of the next four hours. It was hot and sunny, and when I started to feel euphoric I laid down and even took my shirt off to feel the sun. I started having visual hallucinations, feeling strong tingling sensations, and before I knew it I think two hours or so had passed -- enough for a sunburn. This was about four hours after ingesting the pills, and I hadn't drank any water or electrolytes or eaten any food during that time.
I did not take amphetamines recently, so would have had no tolerance, making this a rather high dose of an unbalanced amphetamine mix for the first time -- without the aggravating circumstanced. From what I have come to learn about amphetamine risks following the incident, it would almost be hard to be more stupid.
Now over the next few days I continued to feel increasingly worse, leading to numb limbs, lethargy, lack of appetite, weird or no bowel movements, and very high anxiety. After about a week I went into the ER, and they gave me saline IV solution which provided temporary relief. My uninalysis came back with ketones at 80mg/dL, which I understand is VERY high even for someone with diabetes, which I don't have. It returned to normal in a test a few days later, but I'm worried there's permanent damage from my endocrine system working so hard to recover and clear the high levels the previous week. If that was the reading a week after the incident, I can only imagine how bad the ketosis was in the days immediately following.
I have continued to feel horrible over the next two and a half months, bringing us to now. Lethargy, severe confusion and lack of memory, complete lack of appetite, dry skin, white lesions in my mouth, really bad breath, anxiety, etc. I feel like I really damaged my system here, but don't have money for more tests/consultations. I was very healthy before the incident.
Any input would be deeply appreciated. I feel like I may have to pay the rest of my life for my stupidity and ignorance in this one incident. Don't mess with stimulants unless taking careful care.
