Havent been shooting meth long, maybe 2 months. Normally when I want to play I'm not alone, don't prepare the mix, or hit myself. When I have, like today, I have an easy time getting a clean shot. Although I'm a paramedic, I have't been active in several year..hitting a vein, no problem. The shot was thick, used a bigger vein, register was nice, not even a mark.
Yesterday..bought a "teenager", got new rig ( more about that rig)
About 6 hours ago.....
Don't know the exact amount of gear I diluted but it was a lot, dissolved in 20 of water...drew back 25 of syrup. I'm thinking cool, nice fat shot. Applied heat, vein pops up nicely, clean the site, bevel up, flash and start to push slowly.
Halfway into the push, hits the back of my throat...just about empty the rig...BAM! knees buckle, feel like someone just shot ice water through my vein, crawls up the back of my neck, head feels like a top that spun off. No auditory issues, no sparkles or other major vision issues. Pick my ass up, call my contact "Get here NOW".
Dude shows up...by now my head is foggy as hell, hands and feet freezing but uhhhh.....why is it so warm...down there?? Contact asks about the shot size. Told him 25, he falls out and says "Well Ms. Big Baller that was actually a 50".. I don't keep used rigs around, hadn't a clue that THE BARREL WAS BIGGER. Want to tell him to shove that big ball up his UGH, but my lips are numb. He looks at my arms, there are now bruises, red marks and dots popping up in places that were clear before the shot, and some veins in hands and arms now have what looks like pebbles, and seem to be popping to the surface, and feels like they are drawing up and hands & arms are being sucked into my chest. He can feel there is little circulation to my arms and less my my hands, knuckles look sunken and the skin is changing color. Time to walk he tells me, need to get the blood going. My favored activity for getting blood pumping, taken off an edge isn't a walk. But yeah, okay.
After spending time walking, skin is uber clammy, vein are getting smaller and smaller, and I'm thinking where the hell did all these marks come from? I don't use my hands or wrist. He tells me it's my body trying to push the dope out and the way to handle that is to get into a warm bath, up[ to the neck. So, I go home, in and out of the bath..whenever I warm my skin up, everything looks normal again, veins relax.
WHAT IS HAPPEING? All I can think of is the shot was WAY bigger and and stronger than I thought and since meth constricts the vein that so much dope made my veins shut the hell down fast and furious.
Now, 6 hours later...I'm bundled up in a blanket with my new best friend...a heating pad. Veins are a little less drawn up. Circulation is improving. Keeping my head & neck warm keeps my face from feeling like it is being stretch, and the "clutch" around my neck relaxes. Vision is a tad blurry but passable. Still feel a little chilly, waiting on the sweat to start, I'm spun out, overamped but mind is clear.
Someone please tell me what that was?!?
