was in the shower when I unexpecetly let out of surgeb of vomit all over the bathroom floor. I then threw up a moderate amount of blood.

Obviously, this is consenrning, and could be a multitude of things. I have been going on drinking and heroin benders recently where I didn't eat well or drink water, but could it be something more serious? stomach cancer or liver chririos? I'm pretty young (24) so idk.
 
hmmm, man I hate to say this but i expected a post like this from you :(

please think bout the path you're heading down, it wont end well :( go to your gp, get a check up/endoscopy and put ur mind at rest, you're too young for this shit
 
Well reading that has just put me right off any drugs tonight anyway. Cheers hex, I guess.

Seriously go see a doctor man your fucked up. I mean that in the nicest possible way, but you need help.
 
Regardless of the answers, get off bluelight and see a doctor.

Sounds odd but there is a reason I'm asking: how do you know it was blood?
Was it just blood or a multitude of emesis contents?
How much blood was there?
What colour was the blood?

If it was typical blood colour then it's more likely to be a local bleed in the oesophagus or possibly a burst stomach ulcer than anything life threatening, if it looked like coffee grounds: ring an ambulance.

Get some help, Hex.

Wise words, fresh blood won't have come far. Clots would mean a trip to the hospital though.

Everyone said it already but hopefully the you read it, the more it will sink in. Please don't become another Shrine statistic hex, I've always held you in high regard so it's devastating to watch you self-destruct like this. Having gone through a couple of really shit times in my life, including one where I stopped giving any kind of a fuck about myself whatsoever, the best advice I can give is to please please try to get on top of it, I never thought I'd be happy again, but now I'm doing great - I'm sure the same will happen to you too |:)
 
Get yourself to a doctor TODAY. There are quite a few things that can cause blood to be in your vomit. Some are relatively minor others more serious and some fucking really serious. Only a proper medical examination will be able to tell you whats going on. All we can tell you on bluelight is get to a doctor or hospital asap
 
What sprout said.

I had that happen a couple of years ago. Combination of lots of daily whiskey, cigarettes and beer for far too long.

I fasted for 24 hours, took double doses of PPI meds (ulcer/GI meds) and then ate simple proteins only for a week. I self diagnosed it as a hiatal hernia. I was right.

I no longer smoke tobacco or drink copious amounts of whiskey daily, beer in moderation.
 
Yeah Jackal quitting boozing too much and especially fags is the best choice I ever made.

Any update on hex?
 
I dont want to trivialise how serious this is but I have to think as positive as logic allows, imagine the amount of rubbish that has gone down Hex's neck the last year, especially what may have included high potency NPS many of which have a high level of causticity so I would have thought that there would be a high risk of serious stomach lining damage including ulcers and other similar problems. As serious as these are they are completely treatable and its my hope that this the explanation of what is a worrying post, one that unfortunately has been on its way for a long time.

Im not here to judge tho still, I myself had a lucky escape myself last week due to underestimating the effect of high risk drug use. I have simply chosen not to share it on Bluelight as I want to try and avoid reporting anything apart from the most positive and risk averse drug experiences that I may got through in the future. I've realised my posts describing the riskier aspects of my drug behaviour go against the HR principles of BL, as you dont know what the minority of impressionable inexperienced members and lurkers may naively seen as 'normal' drug behaviour. I may not have moved passed high risk drug use yet, but its irresponsible for me to share those experiences any more. I am luck to have supportive IRL relationships with experienced and influential bluelight members, all of who are exerts in the problems I face and I they have and will continue to provide the first real support I've had from a peer in years. You people know who you are, and how much I love you for your acceptance.

I hope you get well soon Hex, Im sure the rest of EADD are rooting for your quick recovery as much as I am

Hope you didn't get any blood on your air max, you really need to treet them better. (Oh yeah, yourself as well)

You can always just wear your shoes (and anything else that's gotten dirty) into the shower, sorts it right out especially if you rinse them out with the showerhead too. Only needed to rinse out foam and drinks myself fortunately, but I see no reason it wouldn't take care of vomit too.
 
We can only speculate what the cause of this is, and as others have suggested I hope you have been to the Drs to get it checked out. It could be anything that caused it; maybe some snide dealer used a nasty cutting agent. I'm not a medical professional but I guess that could be something that could heal up and recover if you give it chance.

Whatever the cause, I hope it was just a one off thing and not a sign of any serious underlying issue. If that is the case you have been lucky, as this must have shocked and shaken you to the core, and as others have also suggested in this thread and others, this nasty event sounds like it could be a major turning point in your life, the time to stop and think about what you are doing to yourself, and what course you are very rapidly heading down.
 
I have been an alcoholic and when was drinking, I often had alcoholic gastritis after heavy benders and sometimes I vomited and shitted black blood, which scared me enough to make me go to detox (I have been to detox 3 times). Now I haven't touched booze for over six months and I dont't have any permanent damage from the drinking. I hope that in Hex's case it was something temporary too. But It's a bit worrying that he hasn't posted an update.
 
the blood was red in colour and looked like typical blood. It doesn't feel like it it was anything too serious, my mates said similar shit has happened to them after drinking too much for too long, however I'm going to my GP on Monday and hopefully should get more of an idea of what it was. My main guess from reading online is that it was alcohol use disorder. But only Monday will tell.

Red isn't a worrying colour in the grand scheme of things, though it's still worrying - pretty damn common with comorbid opioid and alcohol use, as I learned first hand.
The ridiculous acidity of the gastric juices brutalises the oesophageal tissue when the gassy environment after drinking forces it upwards, mixed with Opi nausea and your standard pisshead junkie diet the damage is continuous.
The wretching is responsible for the acute tears afterwards and when they bleed it comes up with the emesis. It's a lil' ironic that the most worrying symptom often is noticed far less - blood from deep in the GI system (dangerous as fuck for a multitude of reasons) gets exposed to the acid and the mixture of iron-rich haemoglobin in red blood cells and gastric juices forms a weird sticky brown mess.

Glad to hear you're okay, but lay the fuck off the booze and smack for a while, seriously.
If you have a bleed in the tract while you're nodding out and your respiratory system is depressed it's possible to choke on your own blood.
