The side effects from type one diabetes can be painful, this is most common in older diabetics, I however have absolutely no pain associated with it YET.
Diabetic pain. and having two types of severe nerve pain from the disease I recovered from, but left me with the parting gift of the diabetes, I am all to aware that opiat pain medication in general, as well as other pain medication, has little to no effect on this type of pain.. IMO the comfort people get is from being high, that being said nerve pain is absolutely the worst as it is strong and insanely constant.. didn't fluctuate, no position would provide relief, the more effective pain relievers such as tylenol and nsai did less than nothing.. The only thing that worked for me was methadone dosed every four to eight hours.. the analgesic effects of methadone are only thought to last eight hours although the medication prevents dope sickness for much longer.. I didn't know this until after i kicked, but considering it fits exactly with my experience I have NO doubt it is true... If she is physically dependent on the opiates this may be an option she may want to explore with a pan DR.. she may run into severe hassles with being able to get the medication subscribed as take home given the fact that she will be considered an addict, and unfortunately to get the best results this may be necessary. However if she is able to find a clinic that does the two dose of methadone a day this may be a good option to explore. She will have to really evaluate the benefits of the methadone for her pain as I would rather dtox Oxymorphone three times in a row than detox methadone, its insane half life usually makes just the strong acute withdraws last two weeks 8(
Does the occurrence of the unusual amount of infections correlate with the time you began to inject the ritalin.. If it doesn't then i would bet a hefty sum that although you may have had abscesses before you began to IV the ritalin, they most likely became much more frequent after.. there is an infection that is directly related to the iv of methylphenidate, I will have to look this up and as I'M having no luck finding it on the internet I shall have to go old school and crack the, i think they used to call them books lol, where I know its located.. I think i came across one of your other threads and meant to do this for you but as there is no index on the book it proved to take some effort.. I will do this today.. also the thing with the IV of ritalin that makes it pretty hard to switch back is the fact that it facilitates a much bigger rush.. I believe that ritalin passes through the blood brain barrier much faster than the other amps (except methamp), but because it is absorbed pretty slowly when taken orally, if i remember pretty damn slowly it doesn't produce nearly the rush that the IV does.. where as the other prescript amps do not cross the BB barrier as fast but are absorbed much quicker when taken orally.. thats all off the top of my head so if i am incorrect I would love to know.. but I have a bit of stuff to get done including looking up that ritalin IV infection.. I will hit this thread back as soon as i find that answer.. I am clean off use/abuse that at many times would put HS to shame, I am as happy as i've ever been, if I can get here, so can you, you have nothing but hope!!!!
"don't really want to quit. i just feel like i have to stop shooting up. is recovery possible for me?" if recovery with this degree of happiness, peace and wisdom happened for me it can happen for anyone.. LOL we share some strong using similarities, probably more than we realize, but I just went a little bigger

but in making it out I worked my way to a place I thought didn't exist, dont know exactly what the name of that place is but it definettly has one of those ridiculouse rehab names.. we will call it endless sublime harmony of every secound of every day, lol, yeah that doesn't exist and never will and why would i want it to
.. drugs don't change the world, they just change your perception of it, and the thing is you can do that easily with out them, all you have to do is change the way you think.. an I'm not talking the brainwashing rehab changing, although I definitely based a decent portion of the changes in my thought process on ideas they have so it is more than a good idea to explore those concepts when you begin to battle your way out of the woods.. gotta run I will be back..
EDIT:
The infections I would suggest that you may be having are Eiknella infections, it is an organism from the mouth flora or the organisms that are found in your mouth. For some reason the injection of ritalin causes infections buy this organism to become common place. If i were you I would try and take an honest look at what exactly you are getting from adding this to your shots, as I am intimately really familiar with the effect it produces, I would suggest thinking of weather or not the iv administration is worth it, as the rush is really not that good, not bad but really not that good, and that little rush will never be worth the danger and hassle you are going through. It is my opinion that you are not having staph infections but are experiencing infections buy this other organism.. If you still hold onto the idea that this practice is worth it to you then by following some steps you may be able to significantly reduce or possibly stop this occurance..
For every shot you will have to..
Wash hand with decent antiseptic soap before preparing your shots.
Use a brand new needle to inject every time.
Use a sterile spoon or cooker, never have contact with the spoon or cooker to your mouth, it is tempting to clean a spoon that has not needed to be cooked by placing the spoon in our mouths to get any residual left buy the process but this is a very easy way to introduce this organism into the syringe.
Use the proper water, never use water out of a water bottle or anything else that has come in contact with your mouth, or anything you have touched without washing your hands, as we so often place our hands near, around, in our mouths.
Do not place the syringe in your mouth ever, set it down while you tie off.
Use a clean tie and do not hold it in your mouth.
Do not use your mouth to clean blood from an injection sight, do not use saliva to clean an injection site before or after a shot.
Wash your hands prior to handling all pills you IV, do not tip the pill bottle back into your mouth for an oral dosage, don't use your mouth as a place to hold your pill bottles when you need both hands free
Do not suck pills to get the coating off, use a cleaner method.
This along with any other way you can eliminate or sterilize this organism from your injection process, combined with the normal practices including alcohol swabbing the injection site etc etc etc. could have a very positive outcome when it comes to your infections.
Let me know if you have any luck with this.. when you are ready to change your life, realize that it takes a little work, but doesn't take that much time, and is more worth it than you can even imagine. you hit bottom when ever you stop digging, you get better when you make the simple decision to do what ever it takes to climb out and to not stop trying until you make it out, the most important part isn't climbing out, its making the thought and life adjustments that cause you to experience an amazing life, otherwise we have a tendency to conclude that the new life isn't worth it and yell cowabunga, grab a shovel and dive head first back in to get back to work digging.
EDIT two: get some listerine and use it as well, this organism is present in all peoples mouths but the combination with IV ritalin does something to cause it to become a major problem.
