never happened to me before i would suggest calling 911 because even if they don need to send out an ambulance they will know what it is. i would keep the leg still becuse if oxygen gets in your bloodstream it could be fatal
Yeah, don't use emergency services for this, that is ridiculous.
hey i need help and i don't now how to make a post for people to reply on so I'm going to do it here.. i couldn't shoot up i am the worst i can never hit or find a vein and then blood leaks into it and it ends up being a waste i saw people shoot up into there upper thigh .. so i did it because i was so frustrated and i shot it into my upper thigh what i did was i just stuck it in and pushed the rest of the bloody dope mix into my thigh and it was the stupidest thing I've ever done because i was so frustrated and now i have a had bubble on my leg not so much a huge bubble or anything like that its soar and I'm just freaking out like am i going to loose my leg has a this happened to anyone else?
First, you are not going to lose your leg due to possible IDU complications
if you get medical attention should it be necessary. In most situations like these, if no major blood vessels are compromised, the worst it should get before getting treatment is when you notice a possible abscess based off indications of growing infection.
Now, you mentioned that you basically just did an intramuscular injection of a heroin (HCl?), water, and some of your blood; Was this your outer thigh? You also said that you've developed a lump of sorts that is relatively sore; Can you describe it some more? How large is it? is it red? Is it giving off a lot of heat? Discharge?
What I want you to do is grab a marker or pen, preferably black or dark ink with the finest point you can find. If you only have a normal Bic pen or a Sharpie, that'll do; What you're going to do is trace a circle around the lump on your leg, as close to the contour as possible. This is to monitor if it's changing in size at all. Now, measure its diameter as accurarately as you can with what you have and record the data for future reference. You'll want to be checking a few times a day if it has enlarged. If not, wash it gently with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth, then re-trace around it like before. If it has indeed grown (because it's expanded past the edge of the circle you traced), is also quite warm and/or is an angry red, then this is a sign of an abscess in your thigh and you will be needing medical attention to end the infection, treat the trauma, and to avoid nasty things such as necrotizing limbs and gangrene.
So...I really hope that this is just a big scare and that it has no drastic consequences for you. Know, though, that if you continue to insist on mastering this technique, more such situations are very likely to follow and that you should quit while you are not very good at it and still not yet addicted to the ritual of intravenous administration and develop that separate addiction without even knowing it was happening or even a thing that happens. I fucking suck at I.V. admin. and I'm cool with sucking at this particular thing. I sucessfully I.V.ed once, also in my leg, and decided I satisfied my curiosity enough to not turn myself into a macabre modern conceptual art Voodoo doll while I hammer out the technique.
Have you ever considered plugging (rectal administration)? It has the second highest bioavailability for most substances (I.V. being the highest), generally provides a good rush when it does via I.V., and it's super quick and easy to do. If you want help with the technique, let me or anyone else know, and we'll help ya out. We also have a great guide to plugging
here. I've got a bunch of experience with this R.O.A. and I would be happy to help you in any way possible, so don't hesitate to hit me up with questions. I know you're still a greenlighter and can't send PMs to anyone but staff yet, but I'll PM you my Gmail address if you ever need to get in touch quickly.
