Wow Slpool you have been smoking H for 20 years!!! That is a long long time!! How is your health? I have been smoking for 8 years & most of the time i feel as if i could cough my lungs right out of my chest!! Although since the drought i have hardly used in 2 months & my lungs feel 95% better, thank god!!

But when i smoke daily i have constant pains in my chest/lungs, i'm always coughing up black stuff, i can't run or even walk fast coz i totally run out of breath. When i walk up the stairs i have to take a break half way up, its really bad!! I am 38 years old, but i feel like a 80 year old woman!! I have noticed that even when i'm smoking H, were i used to be able to smoke a big long line & hold it in for ages, now sometimes i can only smoke half a line, its like i can only use half of the full capacity of my lungs!!

Does any of this happen to you? I did have pneumonia when i was a kid & the doctor said that my lungs were left badly scared from it, so i wonder is that why i have so many problems now? Although i really am surprised at how quickly my lungs improved since i stopped using coz of this drought!!

So do you have problems like this? & have you found any ways other then stopping smoking H of easing the pains in the lungs? I smoke cigarettes aswell so i suppose that doesn't help!!

Do you burn ya fiol? ive been using for 9 years and smoked for most of it, and my lungs have been weezing for a few years, and got diagnosed with asthma about 3 years ago now, but since the drought, i dont weeze at night anymore, and can tell that my lungs are feeling so much better, so i can really relate to what ya saying... and yes i smoke roll ups also, but not many, i like one with a boot though, its always the same, roll a tooter, get jimmy ready, and make a roll up! and off we go...
 
5 bags tonight, 3 of one 2 of another, all shit. One lot had some gear in but still bullshit the other was pointless.
 
Im no genius, but im not niave also, and i would guess under the right circumstanes ((like this drought/low tolerence)) ppl could go over by just smoking.. so we all have to be careful, thing is there is me, and my bf that smoke in turns, that giving me the time for it to creep up slowly, which i would advise us all to do... i would have my head in my lap before i had too much (wishful thinking) lol....;)

Yeah that is what those two posters were saying, normally when smoking H you nod off before you'd ever smoke enough to go over, i think the bloke that posted that he O.Ded while smoking H, said that he had been drinking heavily so he was a bit wired so he kept smoking & smoking the H, i think that is what he said? But i was just so shocked to hear that someone had O.Ded by smoking H!! I know that sometimes people come out with bullshit on their posts, but these two posters really did seem very genuine!!

Although i was so stupid when i first started using H. I started 8 years ago when i was 30, you think at 30 i would have had more sense!! But when i first started smoking gear i didn't think that you could get addicted to it by smoking it, i thought you had to use a pin to get hooked!! But i found out very quick that i was wrong!! I can't believe that i was so stupid to start using H at 30 anyway!! But i had my kids when i was very young, so by the time i hit 30 i went off the rails!! & i had great fun doing it!!!! ;)

Not sure about Slpool's experience (I hope he will tell us) but I've smoked all the time for 15 years & on and off for 5 or 6 years before that.

I had no problems upto about 3 years ago (apart from losing weight, looking shit etc.) but over the last 3 years I've been getting regular chest infections & flu-like symtoms about every 4 months that last around 2 weeks although I've never went to a doctor so can't confirm my own diagnosis but since I cut down a bit pre-drought & then was forced to cut-down for the last 2/3 months due to the drought I haven't had any problems at all.

The human body has remarkable healing qualities but IMHO it needs a chance every so often (such as a drought for junkies) to adjust & reorganise itself.

Just my 2 cents.
Probably total bullshit but it seems to be logical with my own circumstances.

Yeah it is truly amazing how quickly our lungs can heal themselves!!! Every day for 7 years i smoked & smoked H, & then due to the drought i give them a break & now my lungs are nearly totally healed!!

Yeah Zara, i always burn the foil off, on both sides, just to be sure!! I suppose that we never know what the gear is cut with, so we could be smoking anything!! But its an awful feeling not been able to just run up the stairs for something without hoofing & puffing!! I'm like an old lady at times!! Hehehe!! I've only myself to blame!! ;)

Bang on the dot mate, exactly the same here.. it must have something to do with smoking H on the foil, as now i dont weeze at night anymore.. horay!

Things are so bad here at the moment if it's rocket fuel plenty of people will pay €200 for a gram. There's loads of the drought gear around for €350 for a 1/4 oz. but 2 days a week I'd rather pay the €200 for the proper thing.

As I posted earlier in normal times we pay €200 (sometimes €180) for an eight or €350 for a quarter of proper gear. That's about £165Stl for an 8 or £290Stl for a quarter.

What's the normal rate where any of you are in the UK.

Pre drought price for good gear is about £90-110 for 8th, £160-200 for a 1/4. It depend on the quality of the gear. But now the prices for a 16th is £75, 8th is £150 and a quarter is £300. Thats just a rough price as it vary on the area and quality. But for them prices the gear has to be of good gear

Totally understand where you're coming from, its nice not to be weezing anymore, i used to weez all the time, but i must admit, i feel a damn site healthier atm.. i had chest infections, one after another, and lol.. yeh i felt like an old woman, now i feel 18 again;) ((been using for 9 yrs, i am 34 yrs young..:)
 
Hi ructions

The signs and symptoms you describe sound like indications of mild, early stage COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmanory Disease) It is a condition encompassing conditions such as chronic (ie long term) bronchitis whereby people find it difficult to get enough air into their lungs because they are inflamed and also find it difficult to expell enough air.

I tend to suffer if I get a cold or a virus and then I can suffer from breathlessness that I have a Salbutamol (Ventolin) inhalor for. I have been diagnosed with mild COPD but it only flares up if I get a cold or chest infection etc.
Crucially, I dont smoke cigarettes. I used to but I stopped when I had my first child (Im 37) and I have also always done a lot of swimming which helps enormously.
The best thing you can do for yourself and to help the symptoms you describe is to stop smoking cigarettes. If you've ever withdrawn of methadone or heroin then you will know that comparatively speaking, stopping fags is NOTHING short of a piece of piss and will be the best thing you ever do for your health.
Take care x
 
Lol. You guys sure its not old age. I've been smoking gear since i was 17 and i'm 30 now, so thats 13 years. I've never had no lung, chest or any condition due to the gear. And i've been smoking non stop since. Only time i've stop has been in jail and 1 time in rehab. And i've been working full time for the last 7 years after finishing wid crime.
Edit. I have the odd cold and flu now and again.

No, 37 is very young to be exhibiting the signs and symptoms being described. It is only in the last 5 years, last 18 months in particular, that I have started to have some episodes of breathlesness. Prior to that, like you, I had no problems.
 
Apart from heroin. What other drugs do you do. Or do any you guys drink smoke weed. Lol. I did.nt mean to be rude. Do you guys smoke crack as i know that can cause alot of chest problems
 
not a thing personally. methadone. Like most people back in the late 80s and early 90s I did loads of Es, coke, etc but knocked all that on the head years ago.

edit yep crack is a nasty drug as far as Im concerned.
 
Maybe that has caught up wid you. As all i've done is smoke weed till i found heroin. I dont drink, never taken speed, e's charlie or any tablet type drugs. Maybe crack. But stop that long ago. I'm also on the meth. But then again, when you smoke gear, there's alot of shit thats mixed wid it, which i know is not good for the body. As i only smoke 8/9 outta 10 gear which is not mixed at street level.
Edit. Well i try to smoke good gear. Dont get me wrong, as obviously i have smoke shit gear. But when i pick up and dont know whos got good gear. Then i go through my phone book and call every user i know and find out who has the good gear. Most the time it works. I hate it when i waste my hard earned money on shit.

Before the drought all I did was smoked gear for about 6 years. Didn't even drink. Before that I smoked gear & crack for a few years & of course when I was younger took speed, E's, Coke, weed, hash etc. but I honestly don't think they had any effect on my current situation.

I am fine now physically for about a year but I do think that age & length of time smoking gear effects your lungs unless they get an occasional break / respite.

I'm 34 now but a year ago I was getting regular lung infections but it possibly may have had something to do with the job I was doing at the time. I was a manager & worked late hours, little sleep & alot of stress.

Aw thanks for that Slpool!!! Now i have a name for it, COPD. I also use an Ventolin inhaler, but Ventolin gives me the shakes. Also i often get plurasie (i'm not sure what the right spelling is?) in the winter which is very painful, ouch!!! But yes your right, its time to give up the fags!!! At least this drought has given my lungs a rest!!! :D
 
So there were quite a few contributing factors. The only time i've seem my mates wid lung or chest problems is when they smoke to much crack
 
Es and coke are not part of the problem. Its smoking anything for any length of time that damages the lungs. Like I say, the best thing anyone can do, whether they have started to have chest problems yet or not, is to stop cigarettes. Long term gear smoking will eventually cause asthma/bronchitis and on top of that, fags will almost certainly lead to emphysema if not stopped.

Anyone worried should go to their GP and ask to be referred for a spirometry test to measure their lung capacity. Depending on the result your GP can then prescribe appropriate therapy in the form of inhalors etc.
