Welcome to the forum and thanks for the info.
Those bowsers seem to be a nice pill, however there could be a spread. You can see here one lab tested at 194, and another at 231. Theres a few more here:

Good to know there is a slight spread of dosage between them for safety reasons. Do these look like your pills?
Is your heart fine? Id imagine a strong heart is pretty necessary for mdma, would hate to have that factor in....
Everything else i must say i understand your reasoning. Good luck, stay safe and hydrated, and hope to see your thoughts on todays dutch stuff vs your memories.
Hello and thanks very much for the welcome and for sharing your thoughts and perspective. I have huge respect for all of you guys on this forum and the way you so openly, selflessly and humbly share info and experience to try and help others.
Firstly- yes my heart is in excellent health. I have been really lucky with a strong heart all of my life but it has been in particularly good shape over recent years, touch wood, with an excellent resting pulse ( anywhere in the low 40s to 60 bpm consistently over the years ).
I do vaporize cannabis daily and I can tell you all that vaporizing cannabis in particular as a delivery method is particularly beneficial and supportive towards heart health.
There is a specialist Heart Hospital in Israel which leads the Frontline in pioneering and researching new treatments and one of their primary treatments is actually vaporized cannabinoids for the treatment of many different heart conditions.
I have had acute infections in my heart with extremely severe symptoms on occasion and vaporizing cannabis at those times saved my life I am certain I quickly normalising my heart function and stabilising things until the infection could be treated.
I just share this now as it may be useful knowledge for MDMA user. It is an interesting idea that vaporizing cannabis may help strengthen heart health, function and stability in MDMA users.
Okay, that aside- The Bowsers look really good quality. Neat press, very shiny but not all over, indicative of crystal. Very crumbly too. I am extremely sensitive to even the most benign additives in supplements there are barely any supplements I can tolerate without adverse reaction. Im just as, if not more apprehensive about the other unknown ingredients in ecstasy pills, as I am about how I may react to the MDMA itself.
But I am actually really happy that these pills are very clean and benign, hopefully binded with nothing but cellulose and a little colouring. Yes some variation in dosage reports over last 3 years, but consistent enough and recent ones are both over 200 mg. I trust these to be. They dont resemble the duller, less gold Bowser on your link to Ecstasydata, the top most recent Bowser. This one is like mine, but I think in this photo it looks a bit more shiny and "laminated" than it actually is:
Diese XTC-Tablette wurde von Checkit in Wien getestet und enthält 231 mg MDMA. Über 120 mg MDMA können zu viel sein. Nebenwirkungen wie „Kiefermahlen“, Augen- und Nervenzucken bis hin zu Krampfanfällen können auftreten. Bei Überdosierungen steigt die Körpertemperatur stärker an und es können...

One other thing, and I think I will probably try to examine and investigate this with all of you guys help a little more and this could also be very personal and revealing to this topic at hand- the smell of MDMA pills! I will never forget what the very best and purest ecstasy pills I ever had smelled like. An indescribable but magical and calling aroma. It was intoxicating to me just smelling, and totally unmistakable and a true representation of absolute banging fire pills.
The very best pills I would have 2 in the palm of my hand and I would smell them overpoweringly arm fully extended. In particular I remember these tiny white Rolexes at the 2000 exodus Brogborough Festival (big 3 day outdoor UK old skool illegal rave type thing. Huge mindwarping event with INSANE drugs, especially E's, EVERYWHERE! I got some huge downloads of brain damage from those festivals in particular silly younger me )...
Anyway the guy gave me the two white Rolexes, they were really tiny and had the strongest purest MDMA pill smell I ever experienced. They were probably some of the best pills at that festival and I double dropped them twice half an hour apart on the 2nd night on 2 tabs of acid. At least 600 mg of MDMA, those Rolexes HAD to be an easy 150mg or more, even back then. There was one death reported that weekend of a girl who took one of those pills.
Yes, I was 100% fucked. But really okay though. NOT close to death. Not afraid of acute danger etc. Just well hardcore psychonauting (-Im not advocating btw, and Im not proud. Just dead honest sharing)
Over 3 nights, 10 pills, 1 MDMA capsule, 5 Lsd trips, Mushroom tea, 1 1/8th each of the best Skunk, Pollen, and hash.....left me with some obvious brain damage. The pills were phenominally potent.
So anyway, the smell. I can think back to so many separate occasions over many years when I had otherworldly incredible ecstasy pills which were the purest and cleanest you could get and I literally couldn't fail to notice this amazingly overpowering and distinctive aroma. I recall double dropping Yellow Bentley's (B) in 2003. They were astonishingly good and again I smelled them from the palm of my extended arm to an overpowering degree.
And in December 2000, some phenomenally good Smiley Faces came onto the scene in the UK. They were old Skool. The very first batch we got, slightly blue tinted, when my mate arrived that night with 10 wrapped in a Rizla they were stinking the room out as soon as he pulled it out of his coat, to the same degree and manner as some incredibly potent weed where you immediately know you have got some banging drugs which get your spine tingling smell alone.
All that said though I do think I have experienced amazing and pure ecstasy pills which did not appear to smell very much maybe how they were pressed I'm not sure but I think there are exceptions, obviously difficult for me to be objective about this point now after so long.
Anyway, I CAN smell the Bowsers, just about detecting something that brings back memories- the chemically, amphetamine aroma. But it is nowhere near as powerful or reminiscent, or stimulating as I would expect it to be.
So I will be really interested to make some enquiries on this and see what other people's experiences in this regard in relation to their own memories and perceptions from the past etc. Maybe this modern MDMA and pills wont have this characteristic?? I think this could be really relevant and revealing here.
For Lyme disease, I would start looking for a kambo practicionner if I was in your place. I have heard of good results with several treatments for Lyme.
I had 3 ceremonies of Kambo so far, I don't have Lyme, but several others problems and it gave a good relief.
Hello and thanks very much. Yes I have heard of Kambo. Used on Ayahuasca retreats. I know of an excellent, recommended Kambo practioner. My Lyme Disease- the infection that actually causes it was fully cleared 2 years ago. However lyme disease is not an infection but the condition which results from that particular bacteria which is strongly alleged to have been biologically engineered on Plum Island, New York.
Lyme Disease is effectively dysregulation of the immune and nervous system, and is incredibly hard to correct no matter how much money you have at your disposal.
My own case has been a real Catch 22 because I am allergic or intolerant to virtually every type of supplement and herbal healing remedy out there. I have never known such an extreme case of over reactivity to everyday harmless substances and foods.
I am exceptionally sensitive to Toxic and harmful compounds and chemicals such as tobacco smoke I cannot go anywhere near passively especially in an enclosed area even for seconds.
So it has proven to be impossible for me so far to rebalance and restore normal functioning of my immune and nervous system it's a really complicated all-round scenario and I continue to work on what I can within my limitations but I am trying to switch my focus to mental and emotional health and healing which has suffered tremendously over recent years.
The amount of negative conditioning, trauma and morbid, hopeless thought patterns, longstanding emotional blockages which Im unable to affect or shift from my mind, is making progress especially on a physical level impossible currently.
And in my physical condition and level of exhaustion, plus severe anxiety, I cant get right enough to trip. I have a lot of anxiety about tripping currently due to these factors but I do not have any anxiety about the MDMA experience and never have done approaching it as long as I can tolerate it's well enough physically to be safe and comfortable.
And it is for these reasons that I have decided confidently that MDMA could be extremely beneficial for me here. I will just let it do its thing, I won't fight it or stand in the way or try to be too proactive or conscious about the process just allow the release and resetting to happen which I think will be faster and easier with MDMA initially vs LSD.
And I don't plan to go overboard on it regarding dosages and frequency but I expect to be fairly flexible and free with myself over time depending on what I feel may be beneficial and worthwhile, depending on physical tolerance allergy-wise of course.
I am certainly interested in the kambo treatments and I hope to make some enquiries in future to see if it might be worth while.
Massive thanks guys. Have a great weekend.
