The big and dandy allergic reaction thread - because I love my allergic reactions so

[paigethylamine]

Ohai,

So today I think I experienced an allergic reaction to the MXE substance that involved alot of swelling, and veins sticking out, itchiness, etc, etc, etc-- I had an allergic reaction similar to this that I had shrugged off a few weeks ago; was not aware then that it was an allergic reaction but it all makes sense because I remember having a few throughout my life but am not sure why.

This doesn't always happen to me. What the fuck is going on why does this happen? All of my allergic reactions have been spontaneous---when I was younger and a crazy (I haven't been a crazy for a long time) Zirprasidone caused my jaw muscles to tense up so bad that I couldn't close my mouth (similar to lockjaw but not.) It seems now that I'm playing with research chemicals a little more these reactions (which have occurred like ~2 out of a double digit number of times) seem to be less spontaneous. Two notable occurences, possibly others that were not as troubling or noticeable because I was high.

Well I've given some thought to this;

- Impurities ?

- No interactions because I have been off all substances for a number of days now, except for what I may have eaten or drank (which was not alcohol because I hardly ever drink.)

- Perhaps some of the chemicals that are common in the creation of the drugs are causing it?

There really should be some documentation being published asides from forums...such as erowid which I certainly will not post to because I don't have time or the goodest writing skills and for all I know I could very well just be full of shit. Don't get me wrong Bluelight forum is great but where is the rest of what we need to try and make some sort of scientific substance out of our thoughts? The forum is a good start but I believe there are other means of documenting things besides erowid such as mediawiki or wikipedia. These allergy things would be nice to know about in advance and I have not had much luck at finding out what the heck its all about.

I am mostly down from a trip that was very uncomfortable (about two or so hours ago I hated myself and thought I was gonna die and felt very panicy.) I'm pretty sure alot of it had to do with the fact that I was having an allergy attack and the only reason I think this is because I experienced one that was similar on 2ci awhile ago. I know this allergy thing well, it always starts off with I feel like I'm going to die and then the obvious. What the fuck? Who knows about this?

ALSO!!!!! I wonder if hydration has anything to do with allergies, temperature, a list of things that I consumed...
-hfcs (cherry coke)
- caffiene (few double shot lattes I made at home)
umz? anything I should mention here?


.... yes discuss

Hey, I'm interested in this topic. I don't think you've given a thorough description of your physical symptoms? Mind sharing? Be specific please... What were the exact physical symptoms on 2ci (that you referred to at the end)? And on MXE?

Thanks.

Swelling, breathing seemed difficult..chest felt tight, mouth was really dry, itchiness, tension, swelling (veins were sticking out)

^ These occurred with both the 2ci and MXE but not on all occasions and/or as consistently.


Surprisingly-- no vomiting!

The other part of this, the two occasions that were severe that I'm referring to I thought (possibly) were symptoms of me possibly dieing which I realized today are not because I have not died. Each time I've regarded these incidents as probably just my mind overreacting to body load.

Interestingly enough, I will have you know that if I were to ever die I would want to die like that but if I can avoid it I will-- I don't think these are symptoms of impending death now and I think what made these experiences even worse is that I allowed myself to speculate the possibility of such.

Feel free to correct me if you think I'm wrong, but I must warn you've Ive been "safe" on all of my dosing in that I haven't been suicidal with amounts.


I really like to see how deep the rabbit hole goes, but I'm careful each time I do. I really do like seeing how deep the rabbit hole goes but I'd like to avoid these allergic reactions so I'm intent so count on me writing more soon

Also I took some diphenhydramine which is helping a bit, and my headache isn't as bad and I feel alot better!!! also somebody had mentioned to me on one of my other threads about aborting trips diphenhydramine!!!! I wonder!

 

[Brugmansia Victim]

anyone have any reactions to methylone?

 

[Mercc96]

mxe can make me abit itchy too, but nothing like what your describing, phwoar

 

[paigethylamine]

yeah... hmm .. maybe I won't do anymore until I can get this figured out >_> I love taking these chemicals but I hate the spontaneous allergic reactions that I've had-- not pleasant in the middle of dissociation kinda made me feel like I was gonna die x_x

Does anyone here know if the conscious self contributes towards keeping the body alive?


Like for example, lets say I'm having trouble breathing and I realize this and I make a conscious effort to keep breathing and to mind the breaths that I'm taking are whole and complete-- if I completely dissociate and/or faint and I'm relying on my body's nature instinct to keep breathing is that likely enough to keep me alive until I come to again?

First, are your allergies consistent with every experience on the same RC? Did you titrate your dosages? Which dose did your symptoms become present? Which RCs caused these reactions?

Do these symptoms come on before you feel the full effects of the RC or are you experiencing them only at your peak?

If you faint, the reptilian portion of your brain will take over your breathing. If you are having an allergic reaction at the time, and your throat is swelling closed... well, you're not going to be okay.

DPH will combat histamine release, obviously.
