Meth ⫸Methamphetamine Megathread⫷

East coast is flooded with the archie bunkers everything is tiny shakey garbage. Seems to cause instant psychosis for lots angina and anxiety. Bleach test provided no answer other than people are really just playing with fire here.Has their been any similar sightings and why such a loss in standard.
 
Basically when you have to explain to people who are experienced in this field that "those people don't exist." and go the fuck asleep after everytime they do it, you realize the only answer is just say no.
 
New iv meth user

I just started shooting a couple months ago. But i have a bunch of questions. Like why after a shot do I feel instantly congested and have so much extra mucus?
 
What kinds of response do people get when presenting at Emergency Room with IV, meth, or drug related injuries/illness?

Depends on the hospital and staff, sometimes they'll be nice and sometimes they'll treat you like shit
 
I may have an infection or blockage in my hand. It's painful and swollen. I've been applying cold/warm, elevating , taken anti inflammatory and begun a course of antibiotics now that it appears to be related to my meth use. I thought it was a sprain initially.
I am mortified at the thought of going in/being exposed. I only have my imagination being fairly new to this and never having an encounter with law enforcement.
Do they involve the police?

Don't take antibiotics on your own, that's a really bad idea, as you don't know if there's a bacterial infection, if the antibiotic kills the bacteria and fucking up your dosage regime can lead to the bacteria becoming resistant to the antibiotic
 
So, needing some advice
Yesterday I did a shot in my left arm, just below the bend. Everything was going great until I started rushing. Hands shaky, went too deep and missed about ten units. Knowingly, it's not my first rodeo, I immediately got into a hot shower and stayed for twenty minutes. I fell asleep a few hours later, and when I woke my arm was red, warm, swollen, and very tender. Not only to the touch but to move or even hold small items in my left hand. When I powered through and did manage to hold heavier items such as a glass of water, my hand would be nearly shake uncontrollably. I placed not compress twenty minutes on, and twenty minutes off. It's now been just over 24 hours. I'm now at work and my stages are strained, so much so I'm about to take my first Norco. Anyway I'm concerned because even though
The swelling and redness have been showing improvement, it's still just as painful as when I woke up. Should I go to the hospital, or just wait this out?
 
Just wait, it should get better by this evening. Norco should be fine, but don't take any more shots in that specific spot perhaps. If it gets more irritated/swollen/inflamed within the next 24hours or sooner then go to A&E. I would probably just chill out on it and not take any other shots period, maybe have some good hearty food and I dont think hydrocodone, would hurt, and things like this tend to sort themselves out *unless the shot was dirty/contaminated with something or something like that* which is pretty unlikely with meth depending what area your in, but especially if its already being sold pre-bagged for purchase, its unlikely to be dirty to the point of giving you an abcess.
 
Ive missed shots before. It hurts like hell and the pain lingers but eventually goes away. Ive never had an injection-related complication/abcess during my entire using career (years). A lot of times i think that bad complications arise from re-used rigs, poor hygiene/technique or REALLY messing up, rather than just a simple partial miss.

If you experience persistent swelling I'd seek medical attention, though.
 
Can swim use the addipak saline solution for inhalation to iv meth? They come in red rubes 3ml. Any help or suggestions to what swim should use if not would be great.

Thats just a thing with ice, imo. Happens to me every time and past a certain dosage it truly gets unbearable. I think its a combination of things and not something that could be avoided. Perhaps has something to do with the gear or an allergic reaction to the ice itself (the lungs is the first place an IV shot reaches and then goes to your heart, then pumped outward to your brain/rest of your body)
 
Alright, so...
The other day I posted asking about a miss I had. I want to show everyone what exactly I'm trying to describe.

Day 2 (Soft tissue swelling is making the area appear normal, it's just my whole arm is inflamed instead of centralized).

Day 3

Day 4

But yeah, I have no clue what the hell is going on here. It's not painful, especially compared to how excruciating the pain was during day 1 and 2. It's just raised, with some pressure, and just still there.
 
Was this today? I think you should go to A&E, that looks like an abcess, not necessarily badly infected but if it gets infected (which it very well may) it would be a really bad time. Pls go and check with a dr, sad to say but it's not just gonna go away they might drain it. Not trying to scare you or anything just that looks very worrying.
 
Please reply soon and tell us what is going on.

All the best,

Hey does anyone have any idea about if meth getting absorbed into walls of houses or into fabric on furniture etc and causing harm to people who my enter the exposed area. Only been smoked in, no cooking or anything like that. I heard a story about house having to cleaned by specialised cleaning service to remove the drugs that had absorbed into the paint or whatever and found it to be fairly unlikely. However not sure of the details and was probably a lab in there but this just got me thinking.
 
No it doesn't, haha... unless you have been smoking in the exact same room for the past 1-5 years.. which is I guess what alot of these ppl doing... Umm just would let them clean your house instead of questioning it bro =] LMAO. But if you've only been huffing and puffing that for a year or so then please just clease all your furniture, maybe have a seperate person clean your carpets, WASH your walls, etc... and I hope you were at least trying to conserve your use indoors. Nothing wrong with smoking outside, pipe lights up like a fucking candle outdoors lol
 
Yer i would only do it outside in the garage 90% of the time i wasnt real concerned as it seems fairly unlikely unless done heavily in one room or something as you said. But seriously that was a real story i read on a website saying something in the tens of thousands to clean up house free from meth
