Runny nose on K

well....friday night I had an interesting experience. While on K, for the first time in an amount which would see me be truly affected by it, it seems as thought I found that blissful place people talk about, not quite falling into a k-hole. For about 10mins, my whole body was numb, walking felt almost like floating as there was no resistance felt to any movement whatsoever, and I *think* everything seemed to slow down a bit (at the very least the music did). While this may all seem positive, shortly after these sensations died down, one of my nostrils was running with an annoying persistance. Constantly needing to sniff as I walked around, it wasn't a good feeling, slight paranoia that I looked like a coke-head or something sniffing every 5 secs.
Could the runny nose be associated with the numbing effect of K? I do remember being close to cigarette smoke for a short while, but the runny nose was persistent for a good 60-75 mins, which started about 20-30mins after I remember being close to the cigs, which was before the effects of K really hit. Is this a common condition? Having a slight cold is out of the question, I was in a warmer climate than I have been used to (nightclub in sydney, after being in canberra).
Anyone else have any similar effects, or can pinpoint anything that would cause the runny nose?
 
When you snort powders (which your nose dislikes, not having been designed to snort powders), your nose responds by cleaning itself (running nose). If you have a particularily sensitive nose, this runny nose reaction will be pronounced. Your nose may be particularily sensitive to ketamine, as well.
I suggest cleaning out your nose right after you finish snorting -- eye drops/saline solution works well. Put a few drops up there, rinse, and repeat. This will preven the ketamine/powder from lingering in the nasal passages and irritating your nose. This is the best thing you can do to prevent nasal irritation when snorting any substance....and if you STILL have major problems, well, then don't snort things...do your drugs another way.
 
hmm.. orally and got a runny nose? that's bizarre... did you notice any other possible allergic reactions like itchiness? K sniffed makes me sneeze, but I just experienced the whole new realm of intramuscular injection!!! It's too bad those insulin syringes don't hold more than 100 units. Everybody feel bad for me. I'm paying $100 for a blue label Ketamina liq... but I'm loving every last drop. I don't care that my arms hurt.. off topic, but what are good areas to shoot IM? I've been abusing my triceps too much.
 
I didn't notice any itchiness or sneezing or other possible reactions, only the runny nose...am starting to think it might not be related to the K, it just freaked me out when it first started happening...
I first had one of the K pills at around 10:40pm, I didn't feel the full effect of them until around 2:30-3am, and the runny nose was about an hour after that
 
ketamike, I have never IM'd anything unless it was into my upper gluteal. Only once(when I IM'd 50mg of demerol) did it hurt the next day. This isn't very practical unless you have someone else do it for you, though. Track down any good nursing drug reference and it should show you where possible IM spots are at, and the avg size neelde you should use for it.
 
Good spots to IM...I like the top of my thigh, personally...also, try SC (subcutaneous). I have IMed/SCed about 6 times into my thigh and so far no problems...and the inejction site heals within hours.
If you need more than 100 mg at a time, why not do two injections? Or, if you are not opposed, and know how, try IVing?
DJPornKing -- Your experience is bizarre. I've never heard of a runny nose from oral ketamine use. Perhaps you had a cold?
 
That's what I'm leaning towards, but i've never had a runny nose which was this extreme, one nostril, dripping every few seconds, for what must have been about an hour....it did stop for a little while, then started up again about 10mins later...
And I was in a very busy nightclub, and had been dancing enthusiastically for the better part of the night and was keeping myself hydrated...I certainly didn't feel cold or sick, but you never know...i wasn't exactly in control of my body completely...am thinking the numbing effects might have affected my nose a wee bit too much?
 
i thought K questions was suppose to be in the psych, section, but i seen this so i thought i would add my little side question in here..
if someone had 'un-cut', meaning they preparred it themselves...and they wanted to put it in a capsule, besides snorting it, mainlly for shits and giggles....how much would they need to put in there?????

I have found that K makes my mouth produce a lot of saliva. I have only ever snorted K. I might try enducing oral one day and see if I get the same effect.
I have too weak a stomach to even try IV or IM. I just crawl into a ball if I see injection. Strange, because I can watch gruesome battle scenes. But watching surgical practice I am practically rendered paralysed.
