Hi, I have searched the megathread, as well as the rest of Google, and could not find an answer, or even connection to this. Lets say, its now 1:00am on Friday. Wednesday morning, around midnight was my first experience with Meth, I iv'ed a total of 6 shots (3 doses, 3 wash) with my last around 12pm Wed afternoon. I started feeling buildup in my throat around 7am, started coughing up small amounts of phlem, and by 11pm Wednesday night I was coughing up, or trying to every 2-3 minutes. I slept for 9 hours, and all day thursday i have been coughing, but with only a very frothy white saliva coming up. No Phlem or anything. I don't usually look in my mouth but it looks like my uvula? Thing hanging in the back, is just about touching my tongue. Hoped that was causing it. But its becoming quite aggrivating now. I've been drinking plenty if fluids, walking around with a 1ltr of water, and have made sure I've been eating. Is this something normal after IV Meth use? I do know there was no cut in it, not sure if that matters.
 
Were you using a filter at all?

And why did you do "three washes"? Methamphetamine dissolves very well in water; there isn't going to be any meth left over after you dissolve it the first time. It's one thing if you're using a drug that could be cut like powder heroin, or a drug that doesn't easily and quickly dissolve into water like tar heroin... but with meth I would never do a "wash".
 
I filtered through cotton (yes I know, asking for trouble) and maybe I put too much Meth and too little water, cause I definitely felt a rush off the washes, the feeling of ice running through my veins, the freezing exhale, not as strong as the first shot, but yes that's why.

^ that is possible, what kind of dosages of meth and volumes of water were you using?

As for what you are complaining about, do you have a sore throat? Is that what you are primarily complaining about?
 
No, my throat hasn't been sore at all. Sinus were mildy irritated the first day, but when i stopped bringing up phlem that went away. Oh and I forgot to mention, when trying to swallow food or liquids today I have had difficulty at first, only maybe 4 or 5 times, not always.
Edit:
I don't how much powder, I think I had .3 grams, and used about a 6th of it each time? Using around 40 units of water.
Closest way to describe the feeling is the crap in my throat I get mornings from smoking cigarettes, but there is nothing to bring up apparently.

What you are experiencing is likely from smoking cigarettes.

Methamphetamine is a decongestant and will cause you to excrete any phlegm you have. After you stop using it, it's likely your body won't excrete as much of it.
