Misc Wheelchair bound from nitrous

I think we can keep this one here for now. Great find @red22

I personally was unaware of this sort of thing. I´ve known people who have used Nitrous all my life and I´ve used Nitrous plenty of times. I guess this could be a simple case of people not ever really having an unlimited amount of Nitrous. You might go to a concert, do some balloons, you might even have a giant Dentist´s tank of your own. At the end of the day though, it was never a drug that was totally ubiquitous in any way. I think even for ¨heavy users¨ it was nothing like this guy who just did these cans constantly.

I had always heard whispers of potential issues. Likewise, I had not actually encountered many people on here who had these problems so I never paid much attention to this substance. I was familiar with the B deficiency issues, though I did not know how severe the issues could get. Very informative.
 
Propably vitamin b-12 deficiency. That is how nitrous oxide causes damage to myelin sheath. I remember when I had 600 pieces of nitrous oxide I ate a lot of vitamin b-12 to avoid harms.

Nitrous oxide depletes vitamin b-12 storages. So it is basically a vitamin deficiency that causes those damages but apparently many don't know that and act accordingly. Baclofen treatment combained with b-12 and other vitamins would do very good for myelin sheats. Baclofen is incredibly anabolic to brain.
 
I think this is a really important topic, but we do have this covered already in our article section. We can leave this up for now, as I think there is real value in this knowledge. I see this stuff popping up more and more frequently. I'm going to circle back y'all.
 
I take a B-12 supplement and my blood tests all come back OK. I have been doing nitrous for 45 years and usually a lot at a time. (typically 3-4 KG these days) So far so good and I am 80. Something else is going to kill me I imagine.

Pharmaceutical grade?
 
I used to be able to get USP Nitrous in a 20# bottle but that stopped.
Then I played with the carts for a while, buying them in the case of 600, maybe 2 at a time. Now I am getting the 2 KG disposable tanks. This is supposed to be food grade. Whatever that means in Hong Kong.
The 8g carts are full of oil and I was using a 0.3 micron filter behind a layer of oil absorber.
(clay like auto mechanics use)
The tanks don't seem to have oil in them but I still use the same filter.
 
I am going out on a limb and saying no.

Don't think he is on the galaxy gas -- well kind of isnt. Noone serious pays for flavor

I could be completely wrong I am not informed on nitrous particularly
 
I went hard for a few months on nitrous last year. What finally got me to stop was my toes started going numb. I was aggressively supplementing methylated b12 but it didn't matter at a certain point.

My toes were numb for over 2 months. So numb that they hurt. My b12 levels were low for 6+ months after. It took almost a year for my body to recover.

3 4 kg a day??????
 
Yeah man I remember fucking around with nitrous to the point where it got scary. My toes started going numb, and ingnored it until it became literally painful type of numbness. At that point I was waking up and puking and generally feeling like ass.

Nitrous ain't no joke. Its toxic if abused. Highly toxic.

My toes were numb for around 4 months but luckily I seem to have recovered...

I gotta interject here and say either you aren't doing as much nitrous as you claim or something else is off.

For me after about 0.5L per day, after 6 weeks I began having clear neuropathy (in my 30s). My b12 levels were low for months afterwards, regardless of taking aggressive doses of methylated b12.

Nitrous isn't some poisonous gas by any means, most of our air is some combination of nitrogen + oxygen... but its also not good for you and not harmless by any means. Nitrous addiction typically leads to permanent damage compared to a lot of other drugs.
