Ketamine Cold Hands?

My latest psychedelic journey's have been with K. I've used it in combination with mdma on four occasions over the past three months. The last two times, with between 90-120 mg dose, I've noticed that my hands become cold as ice. This is confirmed by my non-K-using sitter. I've tried researching the side effects and haven't found anything mentioning cold hands or extremities. Has anyone else felt this?

I have to say, my trips have been fascinatingly weird. Sometimes heavenly, sometimes hellish - though I have managed to escape full-panic, and I now see the universe as something way more grand than I did before. I see my relationship with "reality" as ... completely mysterious. The insights are almost too much to comprehend. They certainly don't fit in to the schema my brain has been trained to use all my life. This dissociative doesn't just pull you out of your mind, it pulls you out of the world of human minds. Maybe it pulls you out of the earth mind. Anyway - WOW.
 
Could maybe be due to the vasoconstriction caused by the mdma.
Do you only notice this after dosing the ketamine?
 
Hello,

I know what you mean. Its hard to tell the difference when consuming it with mdma for me, get hot, then chilled. rinse and repeat. K by itself has always made my extremities cold, I couldnt break it down to you with facts but I do know with most dissociatives (K especially) I get pretty cold. Hope something in here helps
 
I bet your feet felt warm, though? And vice-versa with the feet being cold?

A curious effect I noticed with repeated K-use is a sensation of shifting heat and cold between upper and lower body. Not sure if anyone else experienced that...
 
I think I've figured it out:

I triggered my autonomic nervous system, on both occasions, into over-action with extreme tension in my arm and shoulder muscles when I reached toward an incandescent light bulb in divine, orgasmic ecstasy. (I now know what it feels like to be a moth drawn to the flame. :) )

Jamshyd, I'll attempt to remain aware of my feet temp if I enter the insect - space again.

BTW: I believe I identified what caused this cold hand thing to stick in my craw in the first place. One of the people at the party I was using K at, the first time the situation occurred, held my hands and said "ooh, your hands are so cold." I said "Hmm.... I wonder why that is..." And she said "Because you're dead." Well, the idea of being dead at the time didn't seem so bad, but I had the thought that I *should* have been very concerned about it. I might have been more concerned at the time, if her nose hadn't disappeared and if I would have known which of her eight eyes to look at when she was telling me that I was dead. Anyway, I ended up bringing that *work* home with me. Be careful who you trip with. :/
 
i always get cold clammy feet on k, hands prob a lil colder than normal too
