How about the time that I don't remember 'the rush' but do remember waking up in the bathroom, pulling myself up off the floor, and having a terrible pain on the side of my head. Apparently, after I IV'ed, I collapsed and cracked my head on the side of the porcelan toilet, sink, or tub. I was home alone and could have not woken up and no one would have found me. I had a large lump on the side of my head for like a week afterwards and my wife was suspicious of what happened. In retrospect I was very, very lucky.
I have not tried to get a 'rush' out of IV'ing heroin since, and in fact hardly ever IV it anymore since that event. I'm almost exclusively using suboxone and benzo's now (along with caffiene and nicotine) which all work as a great combo for me. I'm going to switch to subutex as I don't have dope cravings any longer and have only used it 1-2 times in the past month.
My message is: be careful my friend.
seconded, within two weeks of graduating to the IV league i'd overdosed of sorts, 3 pints of beer, followed by a smaller than usual shot "it'll be fine, fucking pansies worried about OD", waking up three hours later, reaching for the pin realising its already empty then dawning on me wtf just happened.
