OK, I have an interesting thing going on with my body. I have noticed slight differences between the right and left hand parts of my body. I notice these while sober, but when I do meth, they are more noticeable. What happens is that the left side of my face seems a little bit tighter, when I smile or make faces, the left side is slightly more responsive, the right side seems to not move as much as the left. I also notice that me left hand and foot are both colder than my right and that my left limbs all seem to be a bit tenser than the right side. Now my best guess is this is due to poor circulation on the left side. I base this on the fact that my left foot and hand get cold, which i know is due to poor circulation. And since meth is a vassoconstrictor, it magnifies these effects. My left pupil also seems a bit bigger than the right. Overall the left side of my body just feels slightly off, or different from the right. Now I am worried that this could be due to a brain tumor, which causes pressure on one side of the brain. Then again it could just be a problem with a heart valve or artery which supplies the left side of my body with blood. If anyone has any information or experience with this please share, thank you.
 
Sounds like it could be Bells Palsy. You really shoud go to the doctor & get that checked out. Be honest with him & let him know the difference when you do crank. Also tell him your back is really hurting you. There's always a chance you can get percs...
 
i get these sorts of things on amphetamines (not meth) but it doesn't seem as pronounced as you explain.
usually, b/c I'm left handed and writing or something, my left hand gets cold and the veins constrict when on speed. then later after the speed is wearing off a bit, the blood rushes into the left side of my body and i'll get one hot hand, ear etc - most extremities with heaps of blood pumping to them.
it used to be worse and frighten the shit out of me. my feet (both) would freeze, then later i'd have to lift my legs and arms b/c so much blood was pumping through that they felt swollen.
however, i don't feel a particular difference b/w the two sides of my body. it changes from left to right a bit,- so i recommend that you also get it checked out, can't hurt.
 
NoriegA, doesn't Bells Palsy only affect the face though? I guess my face is the only place I can see visual differences in. I have a friend with Bells Palsy, I will ask her.
 
sounds serious enough to me that you might have to go and ask a doctor, this forum probably isnt the best place to come for medical advice and diagnoses.....although i cant see how the meth could be helping the situation so ceasing its use for a wee bit could be a start
