i think i just made an ass of it!!

i have been taking heroin regulary for a while now, bout .4g a day (uk stuff nowhere near as good as US) i took the last bit i had about 5pm yesterday and took 2 x 100mg mst and i have felt fine up to now! Was watching UFC there and was bored and remembered i had 8mg of suboxone (i remebered taking them before and getting a rush when i just dabbled in heroin) and decided i would snort 3mg, instantly i went really hot and was sick, then sweaty etc and i felt terrible, as the minutes pass its getting better but im just wondering whether i should take some of my remaining 5mg of suboxone or take some of the 27 x 100mg mst's.

i have just done some research on the bupe thread and google (hence the title) but before i done it i never even knew this could happen!!

Whats best for me to do, your uneducated Jock!!

Thanks in advance!!!!!
 
Wait for it to wear off before dosing any more bupe. You'll be able to take more eventually, but wait for this to pass first.

For the record, 3mg bupe snorted is quite a bit... You really shouldn't need nearly this amount for maintenance IMO. I'd try like 1-2mg first and see if you can get by with that. IME 1mg was more than enough at a tolerance around what you're describing, and actually got me quite high.
 
After being violently sick and sweating profusley and getting freezing cold i actually feel ok now! What is happening to me? is the bupe now holding me? i have no idea whats going on! I havent took any more anything but feel fine! if a tiny bit tired and cold!!

sorry for sounding like an idiot, and i have gouched before on suboxone (i think in the states its called nodding, like miscrosleeps) and i was chasing this! i have snorted up to about 6mg before when i wasnt addicted to heroin.

thanks for your help pegasus, can you tell me what is happening to me please

thank you
 
Yeah, your body is adjusted to having bupe on the receptors now. The sensation you experienced was the previous drug being ripped off of your receptors by the bupe. It sounds like you didn't have too much opioids left on your receptors and so the PW was not as severe as it could have been. Just be wary of this if you ever decide to take bupe after opiates again-- you need to wait until you're sure you're in full withdrawal.
 
i was honestly thinking of stopping altogether!!

as i said i took 3 MST 100mg at about 4 am this morning (i wrote 2 in my first post but i just remebered i took 2 and took one with the coating scraped off through fear of WD's) and i didnt feel any withdrawals (bar a tiny bit cold) when i took the 3mg! and that was only 40 mins ago! I am thinking my habit wasnt that bad?? (the heroin here just now is absolutely garbage one of the reasons im stopping)

So whats next for me?? what can i expect?

as i said i have 5mg of suboxone and 27 MST 100mg

i would really aprecciate you telling me what you think i should do from here. i know very little

Thank you sooo much

IMO, just take the smallest amount of bupe necessary to keep you from feeling sick and slowly decrease to nothing. Start under 1mg and go down to maybe 0.25mg over the course of a few days. You don't have to measure exactly, just divide little lines that are about as big as you need.
