hey bros and gals im new here to the forum.. i have an important problem that needs to be addressed.. well i have been abusing opiates for the last couple of years.. last summer i got into injecting oxcotin and heroin pretty heavily for a couple of months.. i got put on suboxen.. i continued to take methadone once or twice a week.. well lately whenever i go to take a methadone or sniff or inject and oxy i get horrible palpitations. all wake up in the middle of the nite out of breath.. it scared the shit out of me.. for a few days after i take something i have this dull pain in my chest.. i had a complete checkup blood work chest x ray ekg all that shit.. i cant figure out why this is happening.. anyone else have similar issue… nothing irregular showed up on any tests..i dont get this from the suboxen..
Hello mate, u ok? Sounds to me like you should stop doing that shit cos no buzz is worth damaging your health, know wot i mean:love:
he speaks the truth
its such a powerful addiction though.. even if you dont want to ever do it again you always seem too
No wonder your waking up with respiratory problems man. Don’t be using M’done or other strong opiods on top of sub. You’ll be experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Nasty! I did it several years back and ended up in A & E, when I didn’t know the consequences. Stick with the suboxone man and good luck.

Suboxone has buprenorphine and naltraxone in – which is why its not a good idea to use on top as AS says it’ll induce withdrawal if you use opiates on top
there may also be some anxiety added in there that’ll make it worse, if your worried about whats going on and can end up being a bit of a viscious circle……..

They’re bringing suboxone out in this country soon TG instead or as well as subutex.
you can get pericarditis from injecting, i had it once and it floored me with a minor heart attack. It was my mates fault though he put a piss cube in my drink.
i feel what you are saying.. ive done it for awhile though and i didn;t start having sides till now.. it scares the shit out of me when it happens.. im gonna clean my ass up..i dont want to get hurt
i had a gear habit but i got through it, i see it as having a switch in your head you just got to turn it off 90% of the adiction is pcycalogical.
It’s already being used where I am
yo bruv, thats nasty.. i abused mdma for about half a year and 3 months after stoppin im still gettin pulpatations fairly reguarly. although there a lot better than they were, its a waiting game. my advice mate stop everything for a long wile let yur system free of all chems, not worth screwin with yur heart over a buzz!!
BUMP
Opiates will cause irregularities in heart rhythm with extended use (they are depressants and slow heart rate after all)
Methadone is considered to be risky in this respect at doses of 100ml and above, anyone on this high a dose should get an heart check every year, lower doses reduce the risk.
mixing with a stimulant (speedballing with crack) will increase the risk.
Cocaine users are 4 x more likely than non-users to have a heart attack and 16 times in the first hour after use
If you are using stims and downers especially a lot get your heart checked, alcohol also increases the risk of heart problems.
if there is a family history of heart problems you should be extra careful (like anyone ever listened to that sort of advice):crazy:
I watched a mate OD last weekend, not fucking nice. eyes rolling back in his head and shit turned completely grey and was only taking a breath once every 30 odd seconds. I’ve accidentally OD’d on Vicodin myself, through being too mashed to work out the dose properly, ended up taking about 5 times what I should of and had real trouble breathing. Scared the shit out of me. I’m way way more careful if I ever do stuff like that now. You just have to learn from your mistakes and take it easy.
I know addiction’s a bitch, but you have to deal with it or you’ll end up brown bread early if you aren’t careful.
