Heroin solidifying once in the syringe

Calm down man, no offense meant.

I just wanted to state that telling to people to not worry about sterility is BAD ADVICE

Why go so defensive, I hold no grudge against you mate. I just don't want someone taking it a advice that he should ignore hygiene.
 
I apologize Kasad, it's been a long time since I had the pleasure of doing any opiates or even smoking weed for that matter(not by choice). I get a little cranky sometimes and take it out on whoever is nearest. All work and no play makes Fillerup a dull(and sometimes bitchy) boy
 
I had been recommended to wait for the solution to cool a bit before drawing it up. Because some garbage can dissolve in hot water and un-dissolve as it cools.

This recommendation to *not* heat the solution... I don't understand it. Why are people saying this? This sounds like nonsense.

I hear ya man. It's been a lousy week here. Dying for a puff of weed. It actually makes me feel my bupe a bit. So much work, so much pressure. I am stable on my bupe maintenance but every now and then I crave for a small buzz. regular dose + kpin + toke of weed usually does it but damn I sometimes miss real full agonist high :(

It can be for various reasons:

a) Some cuts are not soluble at lower temperatures so they will precipitate out of solution when cooled thus making it easy to filter.

b) it's not good idea to iv something thats hot

And if you have pure (or as pure as street drugs can get) diamorphine hcl you don't have to heat it. Just make sure you got sterile water, dissolve your shot, filter and you are ready to go. No reason to heat.

Dunno I have somewhat bad practice of adding a drop or two of alcohol right after cooking my shot (#3). When I do iv stuff everything is always drenched in alcohol. It's just my paranoia so I probably overdo it, and I am pretty much sure that getting some of that alcohol in your veins is not a good idea but I nevertheless do it.
