:( Read through that and tell me your going to do coke again 8o I mean, I know its bad for you no shit, but DAMN. Especially disturbing is this little fact:


"In addition, some people have a genetic deficiency of plasma pseudocholinesterase or a nutritional predisposition to abnormally low pseudocholinesterase levels. These patients may metabolize cocaine slowly, which increases their sensitivity to small doses of cocaine and places them at risk for increased toxicity and sudden death. "


So called drop dead syndrome. I wonder if there could be ways of finding out if you have the genetic deficiency, before you drop dead of course 8)

Anyway that entire page is wacky, I don't understand 90% of the terms but they give me the heebee jeebeez. Somebody comfort me cause i have a date with coke soon 8(

ps forgot the link in all my haste http://www.emedicine.com/EMERG/topic102.htm
 
yeah, that is one of the many risks that comes with drug useage...


its kind of scary really... :\
 
thats why you always start small and work your way up, with any drug.

i cant see why anybody wouldnt do coke again. if you're not hypersensitive to cocaine the first time you do it, you probably never will be; that syndrome is a a genetic defficiency--you're born with it, it doesnt just pop up out of nowhere
 
bah - same thing can happen with just about any drug. some people are *gasp* allergic to peanuts. one fraction of a nut and it is OVER. dead. fuck. better stop eating that shit too.

everything you do involves risks.

My feelings exactly!
 
it only happands to small percent of people. its like 1 in 400,000 it happands to.So don't worry chances are its not going to happen to you.
 
Well at least I know I don't have that problem, LOL doesn't take more than a ball in one sitting to find that out.
 
Honestly I wouldn't be worried about dropping dead, but I would seriously consider whether you really want to start an addictive drug like that. I don't have much experience with it personally, but I'm sure there's a certain ammount of people here who would agree that a fear of coke may be healthy.

I doubt anyone cares what you did last night. What does you banging a gram of coke last night have to do with the topic?

=D Nice.

I doubt you have it. If you do, you seem like a nice person, I'm sure enough people will show up for your funeral. Until they hear you snorted the white devil.

I can controls these with no problems, plus you got Narcan to save you. I use Opioids to stay off of Blow.
I would always advise to start out really small if you are worried about it. I'm addicted to the stuff, but it's your choice. Don't do it if you're not that interested in it or worried. Not worth it, unless you just "need to know what it's like". Be safe.
 
This has always scared the shit out of me, and I read about peopel dropping dead with even 1/10th the recreational dose up to an hour afterwords, no ones gonna start out with 1/10th the does, and even if they did....But thank you so much for the explanation i could never really find anything, and I had always been wondering.

And I still would be worried, because even though it is rare it does still happen. Also, what scares me the most is how so many people praise mixing alcohol and cocaine, not realizing this makes sudden death like 25 times more likely...
