Heroin Would meth work instead of citric acid to dissolve heroin for IV

I've been a daily meth user for 5 or 6 years now, with my main ROA being oral, but every few months or so I buy 2-3 syringes and IV couple of times. Now I'm down to my last syringe for this session and I'm thinking about mixing it up and shooting some H instead (normally I only snort it). However I don't have any citric acid powder to dissolve it, so I read some posts here on BL and found someone saying that anything acidic would do. This made me think, why waste my last IV on only H, when I can do both and potentially solve my citric acid problem.

I read some research paper where they were testing meth samples for pH and they ranged like 3.something to 5.something. Now if I read it right, anything with pH below 7 would be considered acidic right? So does that mean that I can just mix the H together with the meth and that would make it dissolve in the water? Or would I still need the citric acid? If it wouldn't work, can someone please explain why not or correct me if the pH/acidity stuff is wrong.

Cheers!

Maybe if there was excess hcl trapped in the meth crystal.

I think ph and pka are two separate things when it comes to acids for protonating a basic molecule.

But I could be wrong.
