This may seem odd or it may seem quite the norm...When i shoot H i get this crazy rush of itching all over my body especially my neck and back, and a flash of heat as well. This only happens when i do alot of dope at once like 6 bags. When i do less i still get your typical blissful rush but i dont get that scary heat flash extreme itchiness.

This is NOT the same as getting itchy from opiates. I know better than that. It only happens right after i shoot alot of dope and only lasts for 20-30 seconds or so. Then it just goes away and i get the normal itchy feeling from opiates. But this experience is almost indescribable its like i need to itch my whole body at the same time and i get really hot.

Does anyone know what im talkin about, what causes it, what is it, etc?

Thanks

I guess it could be pins and needles but how would i know right? Do you get a lot of itching froms pins and needles. Because honestly i feel like my whole body itches at the same time everywhere.

Also, i thought you only get pins and needles from injecting straight morphine and not heroin (diamorphine). From what i remember i only heard of people geting pins and needles from morphine and not heroin, to the best of my knowledge.

Does this sound like pins and needles, and is it common to get it from H?
 
I bet it's just itchiness man. When I smoke I ALWAYS itch. And usually if I do H two or three days in a row my face will be scarred and with dead skin all over. It's so gross. I must have very delicate skin. But I have to constantly rub, scratch, wipe, slap my body because of the itch. Benadryl HELPS but you will definitely still scratch like crazy.

Maybe it's an adulterant in the H?
 
Straight dope doesn't produce the pins and needles feeling. The fact that you only get it when doing a lot of it makes me think that there might be a bit of morphine in your dope. It just adds up to a noticeable level when you shoot enough of it.
 
Could be unreacted morphine in your dope. Basically what phrozen but it's probably not someone deliberately adding morphine to your dope just not reacted fully. What kind is it? tar or powder?

Not that I have done or know shit about h but that would be just a guess.
 
i LOVE the opiate itch ive never got the chance to do heroin because its never around here but one day i hope to experience this "itch rush" you speak of!
 
Its a scary feeling.

Something to note, this happens from ALL the various bags from diffferent dealers i had. So i doubt its morphine because it would have to be from everyone...

Maybe you're sensitive to a cut or the actual dope. I don't know what to tell you. What you're describing isn't a common thing.

Try taking an antihistamine before you take the dope.
 
I don't believe this is all that uncommon, I often experience something very similar. Itching, pins and needles, call it what you want, it happens immediately after a shot and then quickly fades. I bet your face and body turn red while it's happening, right? I don't know what causes this, could be a histamine reaction so yeah maybe an antihistamine like benadryl would help. I don't know if the cause is the H or the impurities but in general I've found that the better the dope the more likely this kind of reaction, which would tend to point to the dope itself as the culprit. I wouldn't worry about it overly much, but just maybe your body is telling you to do a bit less at one time.
 
The pins and needles effect is awesome when I'd do dope I never got it but with hydromophone ZING ZANG Wh00000000 luv it.

The itching is very nice anyways feels so great to scratch and let's ya know you're good and high.
 
Who knows what's in your "H". Illegal drugs are like that. Maybe try some pharm. morphine, and then something like hydromorphone, and report back with results.

i have had the same feelings tons of times....it seems like the better the dope the more pins and needles. ive had dope before that would produce such a strong pins and needles feeling out would almost hurt. i would always feel it in my face first, then my neck hands and back/butt

it subsides after about a minute or so, but it can be pretty intense at times. i always thought it was morphine or something, but since ive had it from a bunch of different types of dope im inclined to believe its a cut. i always thought it was from procaine/lidocaine, as that is a pretty common cut here in the east coast since it is sol in water.

i dunno for sure tho, like i said it seems like the good dope does it to me more than the weaker stuff.
 
this has happened to me after large shots(6 or more bags at once) and i thought it was just a pins and needles feeling since i have never shot pure morph i dont know what it was.

its like a mini-histamine rush contained inside the BLISSFUL rush of a large shot.
 
hey i have a theory here....

does this happen when u shoot a fat amount of dope after taking an unusual length of time between doses....say ur a daily user and for some reason u fuck urself and cant score one day...the first shot back, this happens, right?!?!

i think its like ur body going in shock from such a quick release of histamines...however when uve been using consistently the ups and downs arent as extreme thus this isnt as prevalant....

of course, ur dope could also just be cut with fentanyl. when i take a massive hit of fent gel, before i can exhale i get a rush of INTENSE itching(to the point where i have scabs on my face after a day or two from the constant scratching).
fentanyl is by far, an itchier opiate than heroin, for me atleast.
 
Itching when on opiates is a very common thing, your body releases histamines which creates the itching,

if the itching is bad, the best thing to do is have a nice warm shower, and use a nice organic type soap, the histamines come thru the skin via sweat and pools on the skin, creating the itchies, having a shower washes them away,

after you wash, pat dry your skin, dont just vigarously dry yourself, works wonders for me, I take painkillers all the time and used to get bad itchies, my doctor told me why, now Im helping you :)

all the best, be safe
