I.V. Administration, OTA-other than arms

I quit using but to be honest I would still use the arms.

It doesn't bother me if people see my tracks

Just my 2c

And yes I still have some mild scarring after having quit shooting up every day (only rare occasions for me)
 
^^^From what I understand, the arms are a lot safer to use then legs, feet, neck, etc.You can try the veins on your feet but if you must shoot in your foot, make sure to clean your foot good before injecting, I've heard that the foot has a lot of bacteria on it. Also, I'd suggest using a 1/4 inch needle and the smallest gauge one you can find because those veins are very close to the skin and not as big as arm veins like the crook. I've pulled this off before but be careful, it can be a hard place to hit, the foot is an easy place to miss a shot in and it hurts like hell to walk after if you do miss. I'd suggest just rotating the veins on your arms, if you use a different vein as much as possible then you won't have that noticeable of track marks anyways.
 
Sorry...I am new here and where I posted my questions no one is at....so if anyone has any guidelines......

few questions...1st..i am pretty sure I screwed up the "norm" veins inside arm...can I go down on my hand or is the entire limb no good? 2nd ..I think I have noticed right after I pull out this aching kinda pain in back..is that kidneys? 3rd and final...(for now) ..the last vein on inside of arm closest to elbow is that a vein? I tried it and a nerve knocked the needle out...okay serious...this is it really....where do I go if arms r no good???:\
 
Use the ones at the side of your wrist. They are somehow not as easy to see as other places. Don't go IV in another places just because of summer, with proper care track marks shouldn't be a problem, try to use allways a new needle, to prevent scar tissue for forming and use a healing cream or oinment in the place you IV. Use a wristband or something. But never ever go for the legs/feet/neck/etc unless you run out of usable arm veins, is way too risky.
 
:? WTF AM I DOING WRONG?????? PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME.......feet red and on FIRE:o...as soon as 1st drop of blood shoots into the rig its clogged..the blood is almost instantly hard. anybody...have u heard of this??
 
Don't use your feet or anything below the ankle in my opinion and experience.. nothing but problems. Not to make fun but are you sure you loaded the syringe right.. I just say this cause it really is kinda common for people to space out and mix with something other than water on accident.. there was someone on BL a while back who mixed three nail with finger nail polish and I have heard of people shooting pure bleach on accident. also do you think you could have hit an artery? This would cause the burning and since its carrying blood with more oxygen in it could possibly affect clotting.. but thats just sorta a wild guess in left field.
 
heheheh...damn if I mistakenly sucked up some sh*t like that....wait a minute isn't that an ingredient in meth...hahah;)sorry just woke up on the right side of bed. Really though I unfortunately do not have the problem of getting so wacked out and spun that I could make that mistake...if I could just the dope in the mf arm it would be a waaay different story. (In the big picture i'm sure a blessing-he is a prankster). Yea I think yesterday one of SEVERAL attempts might have been in artery??? it wasn't as thick as normal and in the barrel it was like foamy??..you know I am just abt positive I did. I found on this site and I believe this thread/topic I read that when u blow your veins out your body makes or finds new way around the "trauma" but if you use one of these new little veins causes them to be overloaded or something like that and that in itself can cause the swelling redness burning in feet. I am not sure that is my issue either; I don't do enough dope and/or get a mf successful hit. The shitty dope slinger said I mix way too thick...so I up my cc of water from 10 to 15cc. what do u think? what was your "thing"?
 
thanks, people...I only IV meth, and i'm currently using 30 ga 1/2 in needles and 1cc syringes, excel brand. My technique is always being refined. Now, i use a 25 ga to draw my shot into the syringe, change to the 30 ga, and fire away. I tend to do big shots, then use triple and vitamin e oil before lying down.

Thanks! I just really can't have tracks. I use triple and vitamin e, do you have any reccomendations for a cream?
