We've got number seed, the major championship leader of all time Jack Nicklaus with 18 of course going against-- you got some patsy to walk over cupcake in round 1 right? Wrong, Phil Mickelson on the 16 seed. -Yeah, absolutely. You can't imagine Jack getting bounced in there. But, you know what? The GolfChannel.com staff may have seeded this and pick the top 16. But you're gonna decide, you are gonna decide who wins these matches. Can't imagine Jack losing them. -Phil is the man of the people though. The people love Phil Mickelson and Phil loves the people.

Holly Sonders, Damon Hack and Charlie Rymer discuss topics including what was the greatest season ever and what will Luke Donald have to do to win a major. Watch 'Morning Drive' every day at 7AM ET.Charlie Rymer. Hole number one, Damon, let's get going here. What does Luke Donald have to do to win that elusive major championship? He says he's putting himself in a better position. -He is. Just keep playing, just show up. The guy is getting better and better. I think in the major champs, since he hadn't finish very well in the US Open, he never top ten, played very well at Merion, he had a T8 finish. I think he's gain more confidence. I also think he's learning by watching what Adam Scott and Justin Rose have done. He's talked about how those guys gain strength from disappointment. I think Luke Donald's gonna follow the same path. -I agree with you 100 percent. He needs to stay patient which is a really big challenge of a player like Luke Donald . It's something that is really been his strength though and I think by watching Adam Scott , by watching Justin Rose , he sort of gets the sense of these things, winning majors, it's a matter of timing. Sort of his brand assembly has

Sixteen of the game's greatest golfers go head-to-head in week one of GolfChannel.com's Ultimate Match Play Championship. Here is a breakdown of Bracket 2. Click here to vote in Round 1.winner of that one will take on the winner of number 3 Ben Hogan against number 14 Nick Faldo . Randy, I don't think there's gonna be a whole lot of conversation in this match. -No. You're away and uh-hmm. And I don't see a lot of putts being given either and-- do you? But you can imagine Hogan can't lose a first round match. No way. -No way. Nick Faldo obviously with 6 major championships and terrific player if nothing else, he may gain some of Hogan's respect in this one but I'm not sure there will be a whole lot to be said other than hello and goodbye. And later down the bracket, number 7 Byron Nelson , number 10 Tom Watson. Boy, what a terrific match this is. Tom Watson of course always looked at Byron Nelson as a mentor. He used to go down to Byron's ranch in Texas and not even talk golf for them, just hang out with him and his late wife Louise and just sort of get to know Byron. Tom respects him and I think Watson-- if and when he learns about our Ultimate Match Play Championship would really like the fact that he was able to play against him, with Byron Nelson in the first round. Yeah, absolutely. This is I think one of the more fun first round match is where Faldo and Hogan might not talk much. You could imagine those guys just having a ton of conversation if they were to play together in the primes in this fantasy match-up. -And since we're playing this at Pebble Beach, that maybe a little bit of advantage for Tom Watson as well. So watch out for him against his mentor Byron Nelson there. And the winner of that one takes on maybe this is the best match of the entire first round. Number 2 Tiger Woods against number 15 Seve Ballesteros. How does he get any better than that? -No, you can't imagine a lot of playing from

Ultimate Match Play Champ.: Watson vs Woods in the quarterfinals
Eight of the game's greatest golfers go head-to-head in the quarterfinals of GolfChannel.com's Ultimate Match Play Championship. Here is a breakdown of some of the key matchups.the matches are being held. -That's-- Theoretically. -Theoretically, all right. Second match-- Bobby Jones , Sam Snead, who you like? -I think another one-- I think a lot of people are gonna pick Bobby Jones . You know, one of the best if not the best match play player in the history of golf. But, Sam Snead was-- I mean, he was a gamer, was he not? He played Ben Hogan face to face, head to head in the final round three times and beat him all three times. So now I know this is Bobby Jones but Sam Snead seem to win it-- He seems to have that tunnel vision. When he's in a field with 100 people, you know, he was sort of a little more scatter-brained. When he can focus on one person, I think that's where he's at his best. I think Bobby Jones still wins but, you know what? I think it will be way, way closer than people think. -Talk about one that's going to be close. This is about popular vote and in this one, you have Arnold Palmer taking on Ben Hogan , the Hawk. That one's gonna be a tough vote. -Yeah. One of the friendliest people-- the friendliest person ever to play the game versus the least friendly person ever to play the game. Again, you're right. I think-- I think Hogan would win this, but you're right. This is a-- This is a popularity contest, really. So it just depends on, are the voters going to look at it as who do they think will win, or who do they want to win; and there's just no way of knowing who's-- how they're gonna vote. -You know, it's interesting when we came up with this list, you can make an argument that Ben Hogan -- I know Brandel Chamblee does this all the time-- may be the greatest player to ever play the game-- -Sure. -but I'm with you. I think this is going to be an upset special. I think Arnie pulls off the upset. All right. Final match: Tiger Woods , Tom Watson . Watson was the upset special in week one. Does he get it done in week two? -Yeah. A couple of TW's here. Watson beat his idol, Byron Nelson, in the first round, which is a little bit of a surprise. I think Tiger cleans his clock. I think Tiger cleans Tom Watson's clock. It's kinda hard to say that but I think he beats some pretty handling. -Again, in theory, being played at Pebble Beach, it's hard to bet against Tiger Woods . -Well, Tom Watson , not too shabby -Never [unk] there-- -around there either. -All right. We'll have to wait and see. Go vote if you don't

So, Martin, why don't you give us a tip for dialing in those irons? -Well, if we're going to stick it close, it's really helpful if at the moment you hit the ball, the face is looking about at the target, true enough. Slight problem that's also where the club is going is fastest. So, trying to control it down here is very difficult. Knowing where we wanted to be as one thing. Trying to control it is quite something else. -Sure. -Now, a tip I got from 5-time British Open Champion Tom Watson should be helpful here. Holly, just put the club by your left leg. Hold the club in your left hand just put it by your left hand. -Okay. -Just kinda put over there. Now, this is what Tom Watson told me. In order for the clubface to be square at impact, he would picture shaking hands with someone about here on

"We hate daughters!" The message of India's 2011 census
Hello Friends,
India's 2011 census results were just out and the news regarding the gender ratio gap is awful. It is the worst in 70 years!
And it is not just selective female feticide -- what this census shows is that girls under 6 years are getting killed at an alarming rate. How are they getting killed? That is what this post on Gender Bytes is about. When we talk about 'gender ratios' what we forget is that we are talking about human beings, girls, -- human rights! http://tiny.cc/f9hiy
what is wrong with the
what is wrong with the india's government they dont know that the nation can not do without female gender (girls), how can they be killing innocent girls of 6 years 'i think the UN (united nation) should do something about that it. 'it just unfair.
thanks Rita Banerija, yes we
thanks Rita Banerija, yes we have to ask the indian government WHY because their atitude toward women and girls is very unfair, we have to look towards that, so let us contribute to the betterment of women, girls and children in the world especially indian
astounding, shocking
This genocide - femicide - is so incredibly tragic, including repercussions, causes, links, that lend successive layers of tragedy to the story.
I will ask my new friend Ruth for info on how to add the link to the main story to my facebook page.
Thank you, Rita, for sharing this with World Pulse.
Speaking my Peace
The information is devastating, and your talent at creating that article is immense, too. I appreciate so much the work you are doing.
Speaking my Peace
God bless His daughters!
The first time I learned about this, I felt so fortunate for being born a Filipino. However, my reflections drove me to rising anger - how could something so diabolic and incredibly inhumane be allowed to happen in our midst to this day?!!!! Culture or creed is no excuse for committing crimes, least of all something as heinous and gory as murdering the image of your own mother! This has got to stop! Rita, your 50MM is doing great work exposing this! I am with you ..
Emie Zozobrado
I think now is the test to Dr. Asharose Migilo to show the world that she can do something to those innocent girls.
We expect reaction from the UN soon.
Us as a team we have to stop this bad culture because it has gone too far.
killing of 6 year old girls
I was quite touch. Whats wrong with having a daughter? Are there no laws in India? To be honest I am disappointed with the United Nations (UN). I think they ought to put some sense into the Indian Government. This girls are innocent, and yet killed at an alarming rate. A nation may not do with out this girls. One day they may be mothers or even be among the decision makers. Lets join hands and STOP the killing of the innocent girls. This is really pathetic!!!
i think the situation is as ugly as age . i see life isnt save for indian girls, maybe there is no mother theresa for them i pray i become their mother theresa or some one greater . goodluck in your endeavour and god be with you for your concern i will be with u in prayers
your a saint for this
Dear Collegues,
It is saddening to know that such is still happening in a place as civilized as that. I think something should be done fast to curtail this type of act. I would not ever like to be in a place like this. I have a very lovely girl of four, and i would not want any evil to happen to her hence i would rather stay in my beloved country.
For our dear sisters there,lets speak out for them please.
Dear Rita!
I congratulate you for your courageous to put this bad situation in place. I agree with you concerning the available laws which are not implemented. One of my post I wrote on 6 infants in our country which were found dead in one pit covered with a single bed sheet with a government identity but nothing took place after the media reported.
I am not sure if I am late to give this idea, we were having task to provide an agenda to the UN on gender issue, why don't we use that chance as an opportunity to raise our voice?
this is absurd,it's in human,tortured and pain to the innocent girl child.i peruse the article and it was like my world was ending.just close and didn't go back to continue.........killing girl child in direct way is something that triggers my mind every day,my question is what is the role of humanitarian agencies eg child right and save the children.
very unfair to rap with wet towel to innocent kids ,oh my GOD,how can they do such horrible thinks to you own flesh and blood.
Every One, Every Day ,Every Way, Prevent Vi0lenCE AgainST W0men On YouR Way!
It's quite a pity that in our time and age, such barbaric acts are stil being perpetrated and yet there is a government and law enforcement agents. It's really saddening, i only hope those of you down there can form a sort of activists' group and speak out with one voice agasint this malacious trend until u are been heard. All the best. *Adannaya*
Lack of Light
Government can't do anything until and unless every single human on this earth realize that women is the mother of Life. It's very sad, when I hear from a woman that she wanted a son instead of a girl, when a woman says that men knows better let them decide, when a woman criticizes another woman for being strong and rebellious. What can we expect from a man and our government then?
Go for Humanity!

Arroz de mariscos, usually the highest-ticket item on any Portuguese menu, was an excellent value at Old Lisbon in the quantity of clams, mussels, squid rings, and jumbo Florida shrimp served; a one-person portion fed four. The seafood was impeccably fresh, too. And while the rice base itself was fairly flavorless, lacking the intense concentrated-tomato taste found in top versions of this Portuguese paella, Lisbon's arroz definitely was superior to most found in Portugal when it comes to vegetables. Namely, that there were some. Portugal's climate is ideal for agriculture, but its restaurants are largely vegetable-free zones, at least in terms of nonstarch crisp things. The typical vegetable accompaniments to almost all entrées in Portugal (and at Old Lisbon as well) are a mound of boiled or very greasy fried potatoes, a mountain of rice, or both.
Naturally this means that American systems scream for salad. And here, Old Lisbon was authentically Portuguese, too. The salada Portuguesa's lettuce, described on the menu as mixed greens, consisted exclusively of iceberg. A few carrot shreds completed the crunch quotient. A generous sprinkling of diced Portuguese cheese and brined olives added the piquancy that the oil-and-vinegar salad dressing lacked.

Portuguese desserts, typically just sweet puddings, disappoint most people with sophisticated tastes. Diners with severely serious sweet teeth, though, will adore delicia de Fatima, an over-the-top affair of layered condensed milk, whipped cream, and crushed galletas Maria cookies. And for those who prefer to drink dessert, an even more overwhelmingly sweet treat awaits: The restaurant carries several dozen ports, guaranteeing a warm-fuzzy festive-meal ending even for those who find Portuguese food in general, and Old Lisbon's take in particular, somewhat a work in progress.

Availability of effective vaccines and treatments.
Diseases gain entry into and spread within flocks by various routes. Most commonly, they are brought in by the introduction of new animals or by animal contact at points of concentration such as shows, sales, fairs, and sale barns. Disease can also be spread by vectors that include visitors, equipment, feed, and insects. Good hygiene and biosecurity measures are important methods of preventing the spread of disease into and within a flock. Although there are costs associated with biosecurity measures, they have the potential to halt the entry of pathogens that may result in disease. As stated previously, the costs associated with disease are both direct (treatment and mortality losses) and indirect (production losses) and usually are higher than the expense of prevention.
Biosecurity refers to measures taken to keep diseases out of populations, herds, or groups of animals or to limit the spread of diseases. Successful biosecurity measures must address isolation of new animals brought to the farm; isolation of sick animals; regulation of the movement of people, animals, and equipment; correct use of feed; and procedures for cleaning and disinfecting facilities. The responsibility for a successful biosecurity program falls on the owner (European Community, 2007). The American Sheep Industry Association (ASI) has a fact sheet on biosecurity that provides useful advice.1
The 2001 National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) study (USDA, 2002) found that more than one-half of the sheep operations with 100 or more head added replacements from the outside in 2000. This was also true for approximately 25 percent of operations with 1–24 sheep and close to 40 percent of the operations with 25–99 head. Approximately 80 percent of all operations added sheep in the last 9 years (USDA, 2003a).
New replacements from other flocks pose a risk of introducing a disease into an existing flock. Certain precautions may be taken to minimize this risk. Effective prevention measures may include obtaining a complete history of the flock of origin, testing for certain diseases prior to and after movement, isolation and quarantine on the new farm, vaccination, treatments such as medicated foot baths, and deworming. When introducing/ purchasing animals from another farm a good practice is to investigate the health status of the flock of origin. This inquiry should include a discussion

"Whoever hits the most manatees wins!"Be aware! The wild is just filled with Evil Poachers willing to murder any human who gets in their way. Poaching means any illegal hunting, but Hollywood poachers only hunt endangered species, such as cute panda babies or meddling kids. Many Evil Poachers have no motivation to hunt and threaten people other than to be evil. They are like the evil polluters in Captain Planet who never manufacture anything. If Evil Poachers do get a motive, it will probably be selling their prey on the Black Market. Evil Poachers are Villains By Default in a Kids Wilderness Epic, a genre in which they tend to end up as slapstick idiots dressed in scary animal skins. In Real Life, most poachers are poor people trying to get out of poverty; they are unable to afford a license. This is also a major reason why poor poachers will often target endangered animals - the rarity of their parts increases the value. However, they do often shoot at park rangers if they encounter them (they're the reason why most rangers in Africa are heavily armed) and are often hired by people in organized crime. There are some illegal trophy hunters as well, ranging from amateurs hunting without a license and off-season to wanting the glory of getting a rare animal. The inversion, Roguish Poacher, is most common in older works, particularly fairy tales and Folk Music. The Roguish Poacher always hunts for food (usually for his starving family) and lives in a Peter Rabbit-vs-Farmer MacGregor kind of relationship with the Evil Fatcat Landowner. Compare Karmic Thief. A sister trope to the Egomaniac Hunter. Compare with Cruella to Animals. Contrast the Hunter Trapper, who hunts and traps legally and is much more likely to be reasoned with, the Roguish Poacher, this guy's Justified Criminal counterpart, and the Great White Hunter, the heroic counterpart.

During my tenure in office there I was promoted and the company gave me good responsibilities to open new programs which encouraged more growth for the patients & families. Age appears to be a negative factor for hiring staff and not qualifications.Advice to ManagementAdvice
My advice to Management is to examine the qualifications of your registered nurses applying to return to Fresenius for a positions they have proven to be well qualified for reemployment. I know such a registered nurse that would like to come back to Fresenius.SSSSRecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

Methamphetamine overdose: How much meth does it take to OD?
Is it possible to use meth and not overdose? It's critical you know the risks, symptoms and signs of meth overdose, especially if you or someone you know is using too much meth. First, learn how meth works in the body. Then, understand how meth overdose occurs.
Here, we review meth OD and the severe side effects due to meth use. We outline the signs and complications of meth abuse, followed by prognosis and methods of treatment. Then, you can ask questions about methamphetamine abuse, how long meth stays in your system, and overdose at the end. We try to answer all legitimate meth questions personally and promptly.
How does unintentional meth overdose happen?
Methamphetamine, like all drugs, has an accepted, medicinal applications. However, meth is generally thought of as the illegal street drug version which is taken as a white crystal-like powder that can be snorted, swallowed, smoked ,or dissolved and injected directly into the body. Unintentional meth overdose generally happens in two different ways:
1. Acute methamphetamine overdose occurs while taking high doses of meth and can result in harsh side effects, which can be extremely painful and possibly result in death.
2. Chronic methamphetamine overdose occurs when a user continues to abuse meth over a period of time resulting in many harmful physical side-effects, both temporary and permanent.
Meth overdose – How much is too much?
The amount of meth a person must take to overdose will vary depending on several factors. The weight of the user, their general health, natural immunities, and built-up resistance or tolerance to meth all factor in. What's more, the purity of the meth itself will determine how much meth is too much.
Currently the purity of meth is considered to be quite high, between 60-90%. This means that the potency of the effect on the central nervous system (CNS) is greater than previous mixtures. Common abuse doses are between 100-1000 mg a day. Chronic binge use can be as high as 5000 mg a day.
Meth overdose complications
People who take meth generally experience a sense of euphoria. This is accompanied by increased heart rate and blood pressure, as well as the widening of the pupils. The complications, however, that can occur when taking large amounts of meth, can be extremely serious and result in permanent damage or death. Methamphetamine overdose can result in:
- cardiovascular problems
- convulsions which can result in death if not treated immediately
- high blood pressure
- hyperthermia (a rise in body temperature)
- irregular heartbeat
- permanent, stroke-producing damage to small blood vessels in the brain
- rapid heartbeat
Chronic methamphetamine abuse results in inflammation of the heart lining. Those who inject meth damage their blood vessels and cause skin abscesses. In addition, they increase their chances of protracting HIV and hepatitis B and C. This is particularly prevalent among those who re-use needles. Continued use of meth also results in progressive social and occupational deterioration.
The following represent a list of side-effects and complications methamphetamine use can result in:
- agitation
- chest pain
- coma
- complete stopping of the heart
- difficulty breathing
- heart attack
- kidney damage and possibly kidney failure
- missing and rotted teeth (called "meth mouth")
- paranoia
- repeated infections
- seizures
- severe stomach pain
- severe weight loss
- skin sores (boils)
- stroke
Psychological complications resulting from long-term meth use include:
- severe inability to sleep (insomnia)
- major mood swings
- delusional behavior
- extreme paranoia
Meth overdose prognosis
When it comes to treating a meth overdose, chances for recovery depend on several factors. First, the amount of meth ingested can affect recovery results. Second, how quickly medical treatment is administered plays a significant role in whether the user will recover.
Methamphetamine overdose death rate
It is difficult determine the number of deaths due to methamphetamine. To begin with, it would be necessary to decide if the death is directly due to an overdose of the drug itself, or due to complications. Indirectly or directly, deaths due to suicide or traffic accidents may also be considered consequences of meth abuse. However, you can learn more about statistics related to meth abuse from the Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN), a public health surveillance system that monitors drug-related deaths investigated by medical examiners and coroners.

My sister was found dead in her bed with her boyfriend. Coroner said it was due to an overdose of meth. She and her boyfriend had issues. He says that she had been out the night before and returned home at approx 230am and went directly to sleep next to him in a small bed. He said he awoke at 7 am the next morning and left to get her coffee (first time ever) and when he returned at 730 to wake her he found she was dead.
This seems really suspicious.
How long does after a person does meth, if its a pm overdose, does it actually affect them?
Being that meth is an upper, would it make sane that she would come home and go directly to bed if she in fact had just taken a lethal amount?
Any help you can give is deeply appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi Judi. I am so sorry for the loss of your sister to meth. I know that you are looking for answers to understand more about her death. These very specific questions would be best addressed by a toxologist or even the coroner directly. Even if your sister's boyfriend was present during her death, there may have been nothing he could have done to help her, especially if he was also intoxicated by meth. I hope that you can find some resolution and the peace that you are looking for around her passing. Keep in mind that after using meth over time, loss of life is always a possibility.
can you od if you slam a vry large amount of meth?
I had just started using meth 3 months ago and on some occasions my friend and I would go 3 days without sleep. We did this once or sometimes twice a week until the very last time, I had a frightening and severe attack.
I had been up smoking meth with only 4 hours of sleep in the last 3 days and also had consumed alcohol that evening. Normally when I smoke meth, it makes me sober and more aware of my surroundings, but this time I had a completely different feeling.
I started to feel dizzy and nauseous, I vomited and felt a lot better. It was 11pm and time for my friend to leave. As she was leaving I felt a strong feeling of paranoia come over me. I felt very light headed and short of breath but was afraid to tell her although I normally share everything with her. After she left, I felt as if I was going to faint or black out. My body felt weak and I was shaking uncontrollably. My breathing started to get faster as my heart was racing and I felt nauseous again. I started to feel as though I couldn't breathe, then I knew I had to call my friend to come back. She sped back to my place which was 10 minutes away and found me shaking and breathing very hard. I needed to vomit again and I felt a lot better after that. During the next two hours, the feeling came back every 10-15 minutes but not as severe as the first attack. I'd make sure my friend could pull my arms and stretch them out, or do strong cupping movements on my body which I don't know why but somehow relieved my condition a little.
When the tragic 2 hours was up I could finally rest, although I couldn't sleep, I was able to just sit back n relax. It was very traumatizing for me and at that moment I thought that this was it, death, this is what it feels like to die struggling. After that I have vowed to never take meth again, even if it were a small amount for recreational use, I still refused to use it.
It is not worth losing your life over a drug like this!
There are some questions I would like to ask you to help me understand what I went through.
Does this sound like I had an overdose or was it due to anxiety/sleep deprivation? I was told from my friend that I was having anxiety attacks because I worried too much and had been paranoid and lack of sleep.
Why did the massage and cupping movements on my back and chest seem to help me in my situation?
Does it become more dangerous to use meth while drinking alcohol?
Am I more likely to overdose when I have been using this drug to stay awake on a longer period of time rather than the first day of using after a good sleep or whatnot?
I hope to hear from you soon!
Hi Monica. Thanks for sharing about your experience with meth. Are you considering using it again and trying to hedge your risks?
My brother is in ICU for overdose of 10 grams of meth. Had seizures,non redponsive,fluid in lungs. His hands and feet look like big swollen punching bag gloves. Will he make it through this or is this the end?????
Hello Katherine. I am so sorry to hear about your brother! What do the doctors say? I'd suggest that you speak with them directly about the prognosis for your brother.
I am coming to grips with the death of my husband. He was a tall man 6′ 2 large in body weight. He had High Blood pressure, took Ritalin and many other over the counter medications for reflux, Herpes ( which I gave him from my previous husband) erectile dysfunction injections….The coroner says that he had nothing wrong with his heart. The report says some congestion and oedema of the lungs, no actual amount or number. The reports also says toxicology blood methylamphetamine level of 1mg/litre with amphetamine level of 0.05mg litre. They are putting this down as cause of death..Drug overdose, accidental. I don't believe this for one moment. There is no way. can you pleas advise if someone can overdose on such a level?… thank you
Hi Michelle. You'll need a professional opinion from a toxicologist or another coroner. I know that you're looking for answers, so I'd suggest that you seek the best possible specialist and keep asking questions until you are satisfied. My heart goes out to you.
How do I know I'm having an overdose? I feel tired which is weird and my heart rate is pounding…I feel as though my veins in my hands are going to pop out and be exposed..I've smoked meth everyday for the last 3 months but I do sleep 3-4 hours a night
Hi basem. It's possible that you're experiencing hallucinations caused by long term use of meth. I would suggest that you check in with a detox clinic (by phone or by visiting) to learn more about getting off meth and avoiding long term brain damage that is caused by chronic meth use.
Hi,I believe I had a close call a few days ago I drank "warb" water , water that has been in a water bong used to smoke meth for extended periods of time..leading to a highly concentrated aamount of meth. II drank no more than 2 oz and about 39 minutes after I could not walk..my eyes were shaking as was my entire body..I could not walk and started vomiting stomach acids for a about 10 hours with headache that was 3 days ago and I'm just behin Ong to feel better should j go to dr
My boyfriend at age 27 used meth about 2-3 times a week on binges for a year. He iv'd it and usually did 1.5mg/night. Can you explain what this means for his health and ability to recover any damage ( he says he feels fine )? Also, how does his prognosis for survival look and over what period of time on average?
Hello Joel. Is he still using? Meth can cause long term effects to the brain and body; but the shorter the period of use, the less impact it has on the system.
i have been in and out of the hospital for about 4 month. the first time i went i was diagnosed with viral gastroenteritis. but i would still vomit after it was supposed to go away in 3 days to a week max. this was before i started to smoke meth again. second time i went (due to all the vomiting/nausea still) they said i had irritable bowel syndrome but wasn't sure since they said there are no real tests to find out for sure. at this time was when i started to use meth again, but when i barely started again i wouldn't have stomach pains. i then went to the hospital another time and they said my appendix was bigger then normal size, so i got it removed. recently ill have a lot of dry heaves and stomach pain. today the stomach pain was SOOOOO BAD…. i would sleep for about 30 minutes to an hour, wake up and smoke again. then my stomach pains would come back. but when i was 14-17 i would never get these stomach pains from doing meth. so im wondering do i need to go to the hospital once again or what am i supposed to do? please reply to me asap. thank you!!
Hello Timmy. I'd suggest that you definitely seek medical help. A family doctor is a good place to start, as you can get a full medical assessment and then referral to specialists, if needed. Call the ER if you need to, for sure.
Im danii im 16 and I've been sober for two months before last night and the night before that I an expirencing muscle spasms in having very light but hallucinations difficulty breathing and cant sleep but im too scared to tell anyone because everyone here thinks I'm still sober.
Hello Dani. Relapse is common when you're coming off meth because the cravings are so extreme. Tell on yourself! This is the only way that you can get medical attention and the psychological help that you need to get past the cravings. My best goes out to you!
Hi. Ive been slamming crystal meth the last two weeks. Last night i did a good amount but then passed right out. Im starting to get a tolerance. When I woke up this mornin my pupils were still dilated but I wasnt where I wanted to be so I fixed up another shot. I got no rush at all but almost immediatly my chest started hurting. Almost like I swallowed sumthin n it got stuck.also my whole chest turned brught red. I grabbed an ice pack and put it over my heart and cooled my body with a cold rag. I tried to stand but chest wld hurt little more and my ears started to ring. I started guzzling water and peeing as much as possible trying to flush my systwm. I feel a lil better. My chest isnt hurting so bad but my body is si cokd. Its been two hours since shot. Am I ib the clear
Hi. I smoke meth once in a while. Like every 2 to 3 months. I also suffer from anxiety and have high blood pressure. This week I started on Thursday night and was up for 2 days with 1 hour of sleep I usually smoke and take 3 hits and won't hit it until 6+ hours later. So come Saturday I still continue using that night I get about 3 hours of sleep keep in mind I only take no more than 3 hits and wait 6+ maybe even up to 9 hours to hit if again. On sunday I continue I feel drained my body does feel tired the last time I took a hit was at 6:30 pm. After an hour or so I start feeling weird my body is twitching my heart starts beating fast than slows Down I got bad anxiety and felt like I was having an overdose my body felt cold. And I read all about oding and felt I had the symptoms. I take alprazolam (xanax for an an anxiety I usually wait more than 6 hours to take one after I smoked and wait another while before I do it again. So after I started having those symptoms I waited 3 hours and then took xanax which kind of calmed me down. I finally got some sleep about 8 hours My question is can you overdose even though I don't smoke every little while like other people. Was it a sign of a heart attack or stroke. Today which is Monday I woke up and had bad chest pain that felt like heart burn. It was bad and I felt a little scared and had anxiety which made me think I was having a heart attack. How long does it take for you to overdose after use? Can you overdose hours later or even have a heart attack hours later after last use?

Hello David. I would suggest that you call a Poison Control Center or Emergency Room near you to consult on what to do. If you are the U.S., the Poison Control Hotline is 1-800-222-1222.
My son was missing for 16 days in Bunbury WA last June and was found 16 days later on 12 July 2013. (Suicide :'( ). His measurements of Meth 0.04mg/1 and amphetamines 0.02mg/1 also alcohol 0.078% and bile alcohol of 0.112% were found in his body. I have no idea of levels that would have been taken. Could you please tell me if this is a high intake or low reading after such a length of time before he was found. Does it remain the same when a person passes or would those levels change? Any answers right now would be of great help as I as his mother believe he did not take his life. We smell a dirty rat and am not sure if he was drugged or in wrong place at wrong time. I look forward to your reply.
Hello Shiree. I am so very sorry for your loss. I'd suggest that you consult with a coroner, toxicologist, or Medical Review Officer at a diagnostic drug testing lab to get the answers to the questions you have. I wish you much love and healing to you and your family.
Thank you for your quick reply. I have consulted both coroner and toxicologist and medical person, but didn't really get the any of those answers. I just researching as much as I can so as to get some sort of sense out of this whole situation. It was certainly not in Josh's nature at all. But think maybe he got wrapped up with the wrong people and just need to know if those levels are small amounts or large. I just trying to find some sort of closure but not sure if i really ever will :'(.
Son used 20 years (iv). Clean 61/2. had ulna nerve transposition surgery , six months after operations on both arms pain got worse than before the operation. Have been to three specialists, next to orthopedic surgeon . None of them can seem to find cause. BUT son found that his old "friend" meth takes the pain completely away. His PCP Doctor called him a liar, said there is no way meth takes pain away. I see that it does with my own two eyes,. Why does meth take the pain away, he can work like he did before the arm surgery's. Now he wants to stop,but is so afraid of the arm pain.. Why does it take the pain away ???
my friend gave me a thick 50 unit shot at 12am friday night…the typical great rush..then 630am mixed me another shot and i did it, went cross eyed and could tell my eyes were going crazy. i started burning up couldn't focus my eyes on anything, and my eyelids were just closing and it was really hard to stay awake. i felt like if i stood up id fall, i remember thinking i needed fresh air and to not fall asleep. i started heating up and turned all red and shaking really bad uncontrollably, after a bit i started sweating really bad. i told my friend i felt like i was dying. i tried taking a hit of weed, but could barely take one. i got really scared/paranoid i wanted to go to park, but got scared of my friend i was with. i managed to get in my car and get home…now its sunday 10am my chest is still burning and my body is still hot. my tummy in gurgling/little foamy..not sure what to do been drinking water. does this sound normal for meth overdose? im afraid it was a dirty shot and its eating my insides-its so hot inside me….
my friend just did 100 cc of meth and is having trouble breathing and his heart is rapidly beating what does he do
Hi Michelle. Get to an emergency room. Or call the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 for an over the phone assessment.
i read dont let them fall asleep, cool them down, cold shower? water. stay hydrated. hospital if you can-they have shors they can slow you down with. i believe ativan
How long does it take from the time of your last hit to suffer lethal symptoms of overdose and how long after symptoms appear are you in danger of dying?
Hello & thank u 4 any information. I had a near overdose & survived. My question is can I use again? If i do will I immediately go back to where I left off?
I have been on a month long relapse of meth. I occasionally snort and smoke daily. Today I felt no affect of the meth but actually extreme exhaustion and a sick to my stomach feeling. I went and forced myself to vomit. And my vomit came out black and tasted aweful. Please tell me what's wrong with me I'm terrified and don't know what to do..?? I haven't ate but I been feeling full for the whole day. I already threw away the meth. Help please
I don't know if I'm paranoid or if I'm overdosing! I've been smoking meth for about 10 months. After 2 months of sobriety I relapsed last Friday the day I got out of rehab. I've been smoking everyday since, not eating, but I have tried to drink. I think I dehydrated myself quickly. Yesterday morning I swallowed a large piece along with smoking but I took 2 10 milligram loritab right before, about 30 minutes after swallowing I started getting stomach pains and felt extremely hot, then for the next few hours I would sweat profusely. I placed a cold towel around my neck and head and stood under the air and started feeling better after a while. I felt fine smoked some more then took a hot shower and during my shower yesterday I started sweating profusely. I could feel the sweat dropping off my face, I cooled myself down then got over heated with more activities and sweat more and couldn't urinate a lot but when I did it was dark! Well I ate last night and slept from 10 pm til about 5 am woke up and smoked and felt fine on other than a nasty taste in my mouth. I met with a friend at a hotel, he didn't measure it he just started filling two capsules up with meth we swallowed those, then smoked a couple of bowls. Within 2 hours I was hearing stuff outside of the hotel door I thought the police were raiding it. My stomach hurt again, I got dizzy, extremely shaky, started seeing spots, everything sounded like mumbling to me. The guy I was with went into a daze as soon as I was coming out of mine a little, he was staring off and if I asked him if he was OK he would only mumble about a shirt and stare blankly beside me and his hands and arms were jerking. It scared the crap out of me. He snapped out of it after about 10 minutes. I somehow drove myself back home shaking very badly the whole time with a cold towel around my neck and my air on high and I was still burning up. My husband found me in my car shaking barely able to walk, any movement would instantly heat my insides up. I was having numbness in my arms and legs, I drank more and ate more thru out the day had Luke warm shower that seemed to help some. Then I started having chest pain, but it felt like indigestion almost. I have felt a lot better for several hours now and haven't smoked or ingested meth in any way in almost 17 hours and all of a sudden I keep feeling these small bugs fly or crawl on me, I haven't seen one yet but I can only feel them, my husband says I'm still high and paranoid. But wouldn't I have been paranoid long ago, not now almost 17 hours later my temperature is low, I've urinated at least 3 good times that I can remember, now I'm hearing keys jingle outside of my bedroom door and thought something just flew past me into the corner on my bed. I keep biting on the sides of my tongue it's almost like it's swollen. I keep telling myself I'm seeing and hearing stuff. But see I just heard a tapon my bedroom window and my bathroom fan cane on someone us messing with me. Someone I gotta go now when I find out who it was I'll sey them on fi
I have recently befriended a guy who smokes meth regularly and is also a very heavy user. On 5 occasions; usually at the end of the week(on a friday) we have smoked Crystal meth together. It is the first time I have ever tried it, however, its been every friday for the last 4 or 5 weeks (I only smoke less than a point at a time, maybe a little above a point on two different fridays). I am finding myself craving it during the week and also very depressed whilst no on it, although at the end of the week I know that I possibly might meet up with this guy and theres a good chance we will smoke it. I am 32 years old, a husband and a father to a 18 month old. I feel ashamed that I am doing this as well feeling like a failure for even letting this carry on, and I hope that I can just stop and return to normal life. Every week I say I will cut all ties with this guy and not take his calls but every week I give in to temptation and meet up with him ( I have no clue on how to buy the meth, this guy usually gets it for me). I ask myself am I an addict already? is there a way out of this? Once I do cut this guy out of my life, what if I start scoring meth on my own? I love my family very much and my son is my entire world, I just feel like such a weak failure for doing this. Can somebody please give me some advice?
Hi Bill. Obsessing over a drug and craving it are signs of addiction. It's a good thing you are aware of your behavior. Hold on to the light spot in your life, your family, and make every effort, with every single thought and refrain from using EVER again! Do you need help finding a support group or treatment near you?
Hello, my daughters father is/was on meth. I started noticing he would be up all night all week long, then come the weekend he would just sleep all day and all night…I started noticing weird things he was doing and thought maybe he was affected by the meth from his teenage yrs. (Note:I knew NOTHING about drugs period) So, I started researching the after affects of meth but everything that I found showed to be effects while on it! Then I found evidence of meth and confronted him with it.. telling him I would help him thru this, but he had to move out until he was clean… now it has been 2 years later, I've given him 4 drug test…3 of them showed positive for meth. Now it has been about 6-7 months, he continues to tell me he's clean, hasn't done any but has refused a drug test for the past 6 to 7 months… his face still looks sunk in which is not his look at all, other than that I'm not around him enough to tell. He hasn't went anywhere for help, he said he is strong enough to stop his self. I need to know how do I tell he is off drugs.. he wants to have his daughter for the weekend and he also wants us to have a relationship together. I'm so afraid he isn't off of meth or will go back.
Would short 2 long term use of Meth begin 2 make someone get dizzy, light headed, sometimes have hot sweats with dizziness & light headedness and then falling asleep after having some rough, passionate intercourse with their other half?
Ok well here goes my story…… My brother came home from doing over five years in the Feds well when he came home he started using meth again. One of the first times I saw him act super crazy was around last summer he came home from the Feds in February so he had been home a good six months anyways he was living with his girl friend and I went over there to visit him. He called me to the bedroom and was like Nikky did you see that … I was like see what … Then he was like that and hoped down looking under the bed then he jumped up real quick looking in the closet and was like that you see it don't you…. I was puzzled cause I didn't see anything and was like uhhh no I don't know what your talking about then he looked under the bed and jumped up to the closet again and was like like that you see it don't you I still didn't see anything and was like naw your tripping dawg there's nothing there and walked out the room….. Anthor occasion I can remember is that he was talking his girl friend to work and dropped her off me and my friend went with him so I could drive since he didn't have incense well on the way back to the house he made me turn around and go back to her job made us sit outside in the heat for like fifteen minutes claiming some dude was coming up there to pick his girl friend up and that she does it everyday but today he was going to catch him well finally I got fed up with it and was like I gotta take my friend back to his truck he ended up making my drive back and forth about ten times I would only get about a mile down the street each time making me go back to her job site. Claiming I was in on it too. Cause I won't turn around and everything. The poor girl didn't have no dude meeting her and leaving with him at her job or anything she was working. That's all. He was just tripping. He threatened to tie me up with rope and duck tape if I didn't go with him but I just walked up to the house where his homeboy who is a pretty big dude was at and told him I wasn't going with him and I was staying there. Ok anthor time my brother showed out I was hanging out at a normal spot my homegirls works at kicking it with her while she worked and outta no where he came walking through the door well he doesn't do very well in public esp on meth because everyone is always looking at him cause he had tats everywhere even on his face so when he's on meth and everyone staring at him it makes him really pynorid well this time the thought all his friends where plotting to Robb him so he walked a good ten miles back to where I was and he ended up staying with me so I could get him a ride back to his girlfriend house well he stopped by the store and bought two glass bottles I guess I hit someone with that messed with him. On the ride home he freaked me out I wasn't sure if he was wanting to hit me in the face or my homeboy in the passenger sit in the head with the glass but he def wanted to hit one of us I never been so glad to get him out the car as I was that day. Hummm not towards the end of the summer it started getting horrible well remember I said he had been in jail for a good five years and you know tha around the time google tarted being popular so he had no idea. So when he found out about google it really fucked him up. Then he started claiming that when he was in prison they inserted a chip in his chest that had the answeres to the whole world and he was the only one with this chop and not they wanted it back. Every time a airplane or helocopter flew over him her would scream in pain grabbing his chest. He thought they had a magnet and was trying to suck the chip outa him he once even wrapped himself in tin foil so they couldn't get the chip. After the plane would fly by he would always grab my finger put it in his ear and ask me if I felt that sometimes I would have to agree although I didn't feel anything because I started noticing that when I didn't agree with him he would start to shut me out only if I agreed with him would he allow me to know a little more about wha was going on with him and what he was going through. Onetime he walked out my fathers house with his arms up serenading to a pretend army then asked me to take him to a friends house and I was like yeah cause I was leaving anyways. Pulling out the drive way he wanted me to go the long way to his friends house cause the army was the other way I refused tho and ended up putting him out by this church half way there cause he told me too and the whole time when he got out the car he had his arms up walking to the church running like he was going to se render himself. Anyways he once got into this fight with the police man at the store and was whooping him when two other men jumped in on him one hitting him with a wrench and he went to the hostipal to get evaluated I went to the hospital to visit him and he was locked in a room by this self they had to knock on the door first letting him know I was there and asked if it was ok for me to come see him. He was like yeah when I walked in the room it took everything I had to hold back the tears and I don't cry often anyways he looked like one of those crazy people in the crazy hospital on them lifetimes movies. All he kept doing was showing me his elbows tht where scratch up telling me thy they put notches in him that they put notches in him and for me to look and did I see….. Oh yeah I almost forgot one day we where at my fathers house and I seriously thought he was just fucking with me but he told me to go get him a needle my child is a diabetic so we have needles well I thought there is noway he could be shooting up as a child he was so scared of needles it was crazy I remember my mom having to hold him down in a figurative eight just to prick his finger well I told him that if he wanted one he better go get it his self well he did then he told me to hold the door cause the lock was broken well I was like no if you want the door locked you hold it your self and walked out the room to outside to smoke a cigarette well I figured he was just throbbing for attention and he wasn't seriously shooting up. Until he ran out side with the needle and empty sack and throw them at me telling me to do something with them that's when I checked the needle and yep there was blood inside the needle so he had been shooting up that's why he had been acting so crazy. Well this is what I believe had happened to him I think that say sometimes he maybe would eat a gram of dope and it would fuck him up well I believe he thought that since he could eat that much that he could shoot that much also and has done shoot up way to much which fucked with his chemical balance and now he has meth phoytosis. Even if he's off meth he's still not normal anymore he's still not my brother. So my question for you is is it possible that if you shoot up to much meth that you could possibly go insane and never be normal again because he been in jail for the whole getting in a fight with the police man incident for about four months now he still isn't normal.
Hi Nicole. Scientists and researchers have linked chronic and long term methamphetamine abuse to significant brain changes and tissue damage. MRI scans of individuals who are methamphetamine addicts show distinct cell loss in particular regions, including the limbic and hippocampus.
Long term, chronic users of methamphetamine are known to have difficulty in memory retention but also exhibit symptoms similar to bipolar, schizophrenia and movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease.
So does that mean that you think he's probably always going to be like this and that there isn't anything we can do to help him?
I have currently been using Crystal Meth for about the past 20HOURS…. I think I have been dehydrated through most of this experience, an I am starting to get all shaky an my eyesight hasn't just changed slightly, it's becoming to where I can't ignore it because the only thing my eyes can really been able to look at more often but not anywhere close to what I'm supposed to see. I am starting to become a little worried now that I am extremely shaky an experiencing myself losing my ability to control my vision even though I know it's not supposed to be all smeared N starting to have colors mesh together in a way that it looks like everything is starting to become just one big blur of colors that are all mixed together could I be feeling signs of a overdose right now, how badly will this, or how possible is it that this is possibly affecting and/or eating away and deteriorating "Central Nervous System"?? Having such a bad reaction an unique experience feeling that makes me think "Common Sense", if you have done this numerous times & is new to You this far down, that's MOST LIKELY A BIG RED FLAG that this is probably made with worse shit & if You keep rolling the dice on whether you get the stuff properly made, (An just having no care if it's you that gets turned into News Coverage, or ANOTHER MOVIE ABOUT DRUG ADDICTION, An having to make your family go through that, an make themselves believe you had been shown Mercy by GOD, & don't have to wake up every morning feeling like nothing is real, or have nightmares, You escape what every addict most likely dreads of ever being "The one that thinks it couldn't EVER be a road her life would have greater than or equal to any other addicts chance, an in a split second Your life could be irreparable and be experiencing what anyone could cause ANYBODY to have Nightmare about irreversible affects that changed your life forever an will never experience life at its peak….

Has anxiety , slight paranoia and depression also. Cant go back to work. Is this normal comedown? He is sleeping around4-6 hours a nite. He is eating some not alot but enough.

I seemed to OD on midol I had a extreme reaction at work and had to leave. I don't know if it was the combination of the two or if it was just the midol intake in such short time. its the next day now and im wanting to get high but not die. so I guess I want to know if mixing the two would be fatal?

Hello Leah. There are no drug interactions known with meth and Tylenol (acetaminophen), or Midol, taken together.
I've been slamming meth for a couple months now, but the last couple days right after I slam I get very dizzy an light headed. Just wondering what would be the reason all of a sudden I'm getting dizzy from slamming, could it be lack of sleep or something else?
First time user i smoked about a .3 im constant sweating and a migraine and vomiting please help what do i do
We found my dad dead on Monday night from meth overdose (injection). He died Friday night/saturday morning and wasnt found for 3 days. We know it was unintentional because he had 3 syringes already filled with meth (one was already taken and the other 2 were for later). Unfortunately the first one killed him. Im trying to come to terms with his VERY preventable death but its really hard. I just want to know if he suffered while he was dying and what he was going through in those moments of overdose. Thanks.
What could be the cause of a severe headache and vomiting? This is my first use in about a month and I ived a very small amount. The symptoms started about 30 mins after injecting. If anyone has any insight please let me know
My girl has done meth in the pass only snorting, & smoking. .
She decided to try a butt buster.. she loved it, next day she slammed dope for the first time. Her tolerance is super high. She started w 30..3 times yesterday. Today she did 40. Then 30, in now 60c.. she was freaking out!! Shes only 100lbs and never eats.. I gave her adivan, made her eat dinner/force her to. She looks a lot better but I'm wondering if I should let her sleep??? She n bed falling asleep.
Hello Bianca. I understand from what I'm reading in your post, it's a tough situation. Methamphertamine is not easily put under controll and it's not easy to quit. She can recover from her meth addiction using both, inpatient and outpatient treatment programs. She might be needing to go to a safe retreat, far away from everything. There is also the option to do daily check-ins or follow through a day treatment program.
My husband passed away on March 30th in our home while it was just he and I there. I did CPR for 36 minutes before the ambulance arrived breaking 8 of his ribs in the process. His death certificate stayed cause of death as acute methamphetamine toxicity with altherior schlorosis as secondary contributor. Said he had 0.19 methamphetamine and 0.06 amphetamine. First off what is the difference in methamphetamine and amphetamine? And the 0.19 % what is the limit?
Is it bad to smoke it a few times times a month? Im not addicted at all to meth but the past 2 months Ive had it 1 night each week (on the weekend as a binge) and have a .4/5g rock. Ive stopped now because I hate the side effects of over-production of oil on my face, not so much boils but i get indeed pimply which I find so f**king disgusting and not to mention how screwed up my tongue gets haha. I find it such a dirty drug, but I can understand how people get hooked on the stuff. Am i doing fatal long term damage to my brain, or will my brain recover.
to the people complaining of having a headache and vomiting ….. im not a doctor or anything but more than likely (my personal opinion) of having a headache after any type of meth use esp after smoking is because someone has put some type of cut/ flex on it and that will normally tend to make your head hurt and also it will make you fill real irritable (1.having or showing a tendency to be easily annoyed or made angry: "she was tired and irritable")
NOT POSTIVE if that's your case but normally a headache is the cause of cut being put on the meth I not to sure about the whole vomiting situation tho …. and again this isn't a proven fact just what I believe
Jason my best advise to you is since you believe that you can step away now …. why don't you go ahead and do it …step away … meth ruins so many peoples lifes… and it will seriously go from you having everything and just starting the drug then next thing you know outta no where TINA will grab you by the ankles and before you know it you will loose everything by the time shes through with you …. so seriously while you think you can walk away go ahead and do it before you cant walk away anymore ….
let me tell you guys about my near death experience as it felt, but I need some advice from one of you guys , So I drank 2 40oz's of Mickeys around 5pm then I took a hit of meth at 6pm then I smoked a gram of weed 8pm , decided to buy another 40 oz of high life 9pm during all this I smoked about 10-12 cigarettes , got home at about 1 am laid down on my bed then all of a sudden I couldn't move my hands I was going numb I couldn't feel my face I stopped breathing I ran to the toilet to throw up then I couldn't , I wasn't functioning , my girlfriend was startled I passed out for about 10 sec still hearing everything she was telling me , I couldn't speak either but somehow I managed to tell her throw that glass of water on my head . I began breathing as if I had an asthma attack then I stumbled to the fan still trying to breathe I felt as if I couldn't hold on , every cold glass of water was as if it would revive me it went on for about 8 minutes of complicated breathing , please someone tell me what happened ???
my friend had 3 months coma after overdose meth.after that, he become amnesia,paralyzed and mute.basicly he looks just normal person..does any possibility to recover in the next future?
I've been smoking meth off and on for about 8 years I've noticed in the past 4 weeks that I get extreme chest and back pains mostly in my upper left back side I'm very concerned about this because it started from my back and now I get these weird left leg and left arm cramps sometimes a numbness feeling or sometimes sharp pains in my back and chest sometimes I feel dizziness and almost a faint like feeling its got me so concerned that I've looked up different types of symptoms that can cause these pains they basically resulted in heart failure heart disease heart attack so I'm very scared I was also told about a year and a half ago that I was a pre diabetic and I didn't do anything to really treat this condition but after hearing that those symptoms could also do with the heart I been wishing that it's only diabetic symptoms which is also scary I need help I also been a long-term cigarette smoker weed smoker and I occasionally drink but I've been doing that for a long time and just yesterday I decided to flush the stash I've quit meth before numerous times but the thing that's hard for me is staying off it for a. Of time I always tend to go back to the abuse after a few weeks or a couple days and the cigarette smoking I would say is my hardest habit to kick I've been smoking cigarettes for around 14 to 15 years and round a pack a day I notice now when I do physical work I start feeling these weird pains in my chest and have trouble breathing it usually starts as a heavy feeling in my chest due to sharp pains my left hand starts cramping up in my bones start feeling numb and stiff I want to get treated for these weird symptoms but I have no insurance I'm wondering if I should just walk into the hospital and discuss my problem but I really need your advice on what it is I should do please help me
I am not a drug user but the other night for some stupid reason allowed myself to get shot up with meth. It was way too much and I thought I was going to die. it took 16hrs for those negative symptoms to go away. since then I keep getting hot and cold , nausea, diarrhea and just really feel sick. Can I be dope sick? and what do I do about it? not experienced with this kind of stuff.
Why when I snorted meth did I had trouble breathing about an hour later? I don't do it anymore, but ive always wondered. Also, I had a really bad cold one time and my mom suggested this medicine with physodopherene….(?spelling). Could doing both at the same time cause an overdose???
I recently used meth and im cold & ive fainted like 3 times…..am i overdosig?
I've been injecting meth for a long time now and I can say that the hot feeling you get after smoking or injection is usually whatever they used to cut the meth with before you got it. Who knows who actually cut it.
Anyways usually Niacin, Epson Salt, MSN(Pills for the joints in farm animals) it all cracks back and breaksdown.
Always taste your meth before you use it if it has a cold feel fo your tounge then its cut which is cut. Keep in mind meth does taste horrible. And if someone has lost their life due to Meth shot it was probably a hot shot which could be anything never let anyone make your shot up for you. If you can't do it yourself then you don't need to be doing it. When it comes to drugs remember that you can't trust your best friends not even yourself sometimes.
People even use baby laxative to cut it with also and vitablend. VitaBlend makes me break out in a rash that goes away shortly and is really not a big deal. It's no worse then the drug your doing anyways. And doing too much resulting with you over amping your heart when your eyes roll around and shake your whole body shakes and gets hot. Etc. Yes get thrown in a cold shower clothes on whatever it might save your life. If their flopping on the ground due to over amping, if you have what it takes or if u really want to help them not die you should try everything and I saved my best friends life this way is to stick an ice cube up their just like a rectal thermometer. They will snap right out of it. Only in extreme cases where they wouldnt be able to stop you should you attempt it. Getting too hot of temperature is deadly.
Does a person experiencing a methamphetamine overdose with convulsions experience pain while it is happening?

Thousands of Venezuelans are continuing their weeks-long protests against the government after the arrest of opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez yesterday.
Lopez turned himself in Tuesday after a weeklong manhunt. He is due in court Wednesday on charges of inciting violence that erupted during protests.
As he was being arrested he told his supporters he doesn't fear years behind bars if that's what it takes to open eyes to the damage done to Venezuela by 15 years of socialist rule.
"If my jailing serves to awaken a people, serves to awaken Venezuela ... then it will be well worth the infamous imprisonment imposed upon me directly, with cowardice," he shouted to supporters before turning himself in.
Demonstrators gathered outside Venezuelan embassies across Latin America on Tuesday as both anti-government protesters and government supporters rallied on the streets of Caracas.
Human rights groups condemned the charges against Lopez as "political conspiracy theories" and not criminal evidence.
U.S.Secretary of State John Kerry warned that arresting the opposition leader would have a "chilling effect" on freedom of expression.
Venezuelans are protesting rising crime rate, food shortages, and high inflation. The opposition has maintained that the shortages of basic goods and the inflation are the result of government corruption and mismanagement of Venezuela's vast oil revenues.
On Monday, President Nicolas Maduro expelled three U.S. diplomats, accusing them of conspiring with the opposition to topple his government. The United States said the allegations are "baseless and false."
