Alright, after 5 years or so I have never experienced this. The last 2 weeks or so, I use the same quality, same equipment everything. It seems as all of a sudden I cant get IV to work. I have used triple the dose of meth and no rush. I do intsantly feel is slightly, however not at all what it should be. The only idea I have is the veins closed or blocked? I notice that sometimes it feels i have a massive pressure in my neck or in my abdomen, chest, shoulders etc. I am having an EKG done today just incase. Anyone else ever get this or have an idea?
 
i don't feel as though you're going to get a definitive answer as to why you're not getting high. my only suggestion is that your tolerance is at a point where the dosage you're using is insufficient to achieve the same high or the gear you're using is substantially weaker.

i think it's best that you follow through with your EKG. it would be smart to admit to your usage as well as to not leave anything out and help them determine the cause.
 
So My EKG had similar results(left ventricular hypertrophy, left anterior fascicular block) yet it has no changes since 3 years ago. I showed the doctor my veins, and she says they are "hard" and may be inflammed and/or cut off which can happen at any time. I know this aint the best combo with amphetamines..but thats another story.

Also the stuff is equal strength and tolerance isnt that high(tested it by smoking) and it works well..Just without the rush which is sought.

I have looked endlessly(until now) for an answer. The closing of the vein seems incorrect due to the same problem being in multiple places, even rarely used places as well. I will keep trying I suppose...If this keeps up, No more IV...Thanks for your help
 
I searched on Google and this is what I got: "After time, meth causes your veins to tighten and shrink. It can also burn and eat away at delicate vein tissue." It says the usual stuff- drink lots of water (this is essential), drink less coffee, caffeinated soda, and alcohol, and try not to smoke 1-2 hours before injecting because Nicotine shrinks your veins. Taking a hot shower before shooting up can help a lot, that's what I do. I use heroin, not meth, but I'm assuming that shooting up is the same. This is about damaged veins healing: "They can, if you give them a chance. First, stop injecting into damaged veins to avoid any more puncture trauma. You also want to give surrounding tissues a rest. You may be able to speed the healing process by rubbing Vitamin E oil or aloe vera gel on the damaged site each day. Many users swear by this, although it requires daily attention and a little patience."

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful...I would suggest trying the things I mentioned and seeing how it goes!
