Injecting stuff you shouldn't? (eg, air, ink) or injecting misfires? experieneces
This is asking have people injected stuff by accident or sonething else than thier drugs? Or nearly lost a limb? and what happened and how it could of been prevented (without drugs are bad mmmmmmmkay)
air?]
We mostly know avoid air but small bubbles and even a point is harmless. But I've drew back lost, lost vac and regged and to get the hit to start I've slowly shot 0.4ml of air into me, breathing more (to expel it?), No problems or side effects. I think fast enough and with a wide gauge you would blow the vein and it would collaspe. Does anyone have an asnwer? Where would the air go breath out?
ink/dye = sink n die
Now the next is INK well GLITTER. OK I don't smoke so to cook a shot I aint upti date on my lighters I have 2 clickers for my gas heater and have plenty of cheap pound shop ones. I lose them (in my room) or they brake but mostly die and filling them to work is a pain so I normallyy light a teacandle and hoover the spoon over to cook. I ran out of candles apart from big ones so I used one, then another. Now one day I had a blue glitter one and I noticed the shot was tinted a blue. I micron'ed it but in the spoon was a small spec of glitter and on my hand and table alot. It's amazing the mess they leave like pet hair. Sadly I had shot most/all but I was ok (this does NOT mean it was safe!!) , and using these only option I've had some fall in again but secnod it does - REMOVED if it's cooked then I suspect the dye ends up in you. Even worse without micron filtering you may suck up the whole glitter. I remember in school being told never to write on my hand or I might die - I am sure that's far overblown but pen ink over a cut may lead in a rare case to blood poisoning now imagine IV. 8(
H. Peroxide
Awhile ago I was in the dire need to get the gears flowing inbetween the ears so much I had to dumpout shot w/ blood - add water go to heat and bang I knock Hydrogen Peroxide over not sure on it's %% but I yused to get 6% from a pharmacy and I've now 35% Food Grade (however I cut it with water well not cutting - I dialute it to a custom %% for its use) anyway soe went into my spoon and it bubbled. From what I know H.P. would just become water and H.P. has been IVed to people for oxygen (HOWEVER that would be human/medical grade) - I either pllugged or dumped it.
GBL
GBL - I used to have pip's galare to measure this but now I get my old syringes - clean and use for GBL (oral obv.), I usually use a new syringe all the time but (mess of a room) once I had water loaded in @ 1.5ml then it was 0.5ml - must be the wrong one or did I spill itout, drop on tounge - GBL, what's that there?

- no never IV'ed it but boody hell imagine that if citric can burn.
it's now I've a glass for syringes JUST for GBL ones - I plan on having spare new ones but imagine reusing them even a quick suck n blow with water there might be a drop still that ends in your vein.
Alcohol
Just thought of this after GBL, one of my mates said when you cook H up if you've no filter use a corner of a alcohol wipe. He claimed also a few drops of it in your shot kills bacteria which is true - like heat? heat kills heroin, would alc? He said if you miss it's alot cleaner and no abcesses (or less likely). Yet to try or research - anyone answer?
Hit nerve
Well over a year ago or two [EDIT: beginnning of 2012 - wasnt as long as I thought). I went into my right crook USING a large pin as I had prev done no problem on my left but each arm differs. Looking at it now and having done a few there recetly you have go in at an angle I was rushing about and my mum kept shouting me to come down so after a half reg I shot a bit and my arm blew up red and for 15 mins I should of called an ambulamc ebut the pain went when the pin was pushed in there was a small shock and no blood till I came back - this shock I felt once on a bicep so I pull out (if in doub- innit?). Thinking back I either used annother vein on my left or binned./plugged it once the 15 min of pain went (numb it more) and was off IVing for a awhile since then I've only just started using myright underarm + crook. This time the crook is done at an angle at the veinruns that way and a small 1mler or 25g orange. Dunno why but since I have started my arm is better. Since the inncedint (hold out both arms hairy side/finger nail side UP) the innerright side and under all the feeling is numbed and it tingles pushing the crook gave me an electric shock
Artie?
Twice I think I've done, first once inside what was I thought may of been a vein the needle bounced up and down, I think it filled iwoth aor - but I felt there was a pluse so I left it. One time I was digging for one and regged fine and a tiny bit was painful and not normal missed hit painful - I left it used another fine, The blood colour I forget but was dark a bit it looked normal.
bad habits
I'm sure someone by now has got petrol/diesel in thier rig from puddle water!!!!! My shots are primary in the arm then hand. Last year I used legs, foot and stopped, I restarted in arm and used hand which was new to me. I AIM for 1ml'er or 25g ORANGE (I might actually buy some smaller needles that retract as some shots are 1.5ml-2ml.
I've had a few abcesses more than most I reckon, one was just red skin and tightness - it went over time no scars. One grew into a head and I could not help it, I used a huge pin (whichever of the big ones i have as they I rarely use) and sqoozeout puss, nasty pusss and presed it and it was strangely enjoyable now I do NOT EVER CONDONE draining by yourself and if you had to use a out the pack new pin, wear gloves cover well, mine scared but today isnt so bad. However lately I found an amazing vein that on my left arm is when viewing the crook one - to the left on the side which I cant get on my right. Sadly that's now the big lump - my honest advice is see a doctor abbceses are serious, usually though I just leave them unless I began to feel ill or something painful, missing should hurt but deep it might not. Missing can be deadly in antrax infections and the h here the dealers stash in feilds outside, then mouth, arse bacteria (I wont anymore its a put off). Injecting stimulents is bad sometimes too and I have been pulling stim seshers and tailing off with IVing Mephedrone or ETH which I stopped they are bad too asthey are corrisive and METHADONE (opoid) is too, i Used to IV alot now this was injectabke methadone (NOT SYRUP!!!) but its corrisive too so I noticed veins are taxes more I imagine ETH does that too. What makes IV stim bad is the complusion and behavour. - coke/amp here being pure enough to spread over bread for an amphetamine-wich (like sweet thick paste) or coke thats aimed at snorters thats why most shoot crack here which you need ctiric and is heavy on veins. Another is being slow or not hitting right and winding up with clotted blod, withdrawing the needle and squirting then shaking then re entering.
Was gunna do quick tips but there'll be a thread for that so go to there too to help avoid telling stories here.
