It occurred to g today that the best product he has received regarding diacetylmorphine has been from those who deal, but do not use. next in line in terms of quality are those who use, but only smoke. frequently, g gets lame quality shit (you know it, west coasters, smells completely ripe of vinegar as ifdippedin a bottle of vinegar, not just manufactured using vinegar, odd consistancy that in some places is rubbery and others amber, with no semi-immediate effects from smoking) from those who use and only IV.

THERE IS A REASON FOR THIS.

because IV’ers are delivering the product directly into their bloodstream, it makes them able to get further on a high of product with very little diacetylmorphine than someone smoking because of the immediacy of the delivery and the inefficiency of inhaling/missing smoke from the running burning diacetylmorphine on the foil.

note: THIS IS NOT A SUGGESTION TO CHANGE TO IV’ING.

it simply illustrates that if you have a choice between a dealer who IV’s and a dealer who only smokes, go with the dealer who smokes. due to inefficiency of his ROA, your product will be higher quality. also, there is always the case that those who do not use have no idea how bad or good the product is, but sell it anyway without having it tested. this is the risk you run with street drugs.

thanks to all friends new and old who follow, you guys keep the opiatrain rolling :)

g had a bit of a health scare but recovered quickly. he has been having terrible, sudden attacks of stomach pain in the lower stomach/abdomen, the severity of which lead to retching, vomiting and a need for strong pain medication legitimitely. this is unfortunate, but for the first time in g’s life, he actually needs the pain killers he takes due to the problem. no doctor knows what causes the attacks or the pain but it is theorized a combination of benzodiazepine/opiate dependence combined with malneutrition because of the extreme nausea that accompanies the attacks. g has been eating very little and because of it is severely malneurished. thyroid gland is slow, vital fluid levels are in the single digits, red blood cells are deformed, but the white blood cells and count are normal, which means its not an infection. current theory (again) is malneutrition due to the nausea from the pain which makes g never eat.

g was fatalistic and very afraid for 2 days, but d was able to help g significantly understand and feel better about what was happening and the fact that it is reversable.

doctor feelgood has bumped g up to 3x a day opana er 40mg, along with the previous regimen of opana ir but removed the fioricet and is scaling down the halcion. xanax is continued at night. g worries about the gaps in the current treatment regimen but the 3x per day 40mg er is more than he can ask for and definitely a step up.

g and d have been exploring ketamine quite a bit. quality of ketamine in the area varies widely, and d has been quite effective in probing the authenticity/cuts of the ketamine with a variety of exams he has found online. due to ketamine, g finally experienced his first visual hallucination. the story is quite curious. 

g and d spent a good bit of time together in the 2 days immediately after g’s diagnosis. g was emotionally completely insecure and prone to outbursts of crying and fatalistic thinking. d surprised g with a very large amount of ketamine, which d and g shared. they snorted it and the sheer amount plus the opana g shared with d was able to sufficiently stuff and clog g’s rather overirritated nasal passages (g is a daily insufflator of most of his meds; the speed difference and the facts of opana’s bioavailability dictate a need for it). g had immediate sensations of being “drugged”, having lack of motor control and other normal “impaired” sensations, but no hallucations. YET. this is where the story takes a turn for the bizarre.

d & g did a LOT of ketamine. the final amount g has no clue, but simply a LOT. around a day later, in the evening, g’s nose finally unclogged and g experienced ALL OF THE KETAMINE AT ONCE. it was very, very intense. g had the sensation of the room “warping” and his vision tunnelling and zooming in and out. g could only lie on the bed while special k worked its magic. g definitely experienced a very strong version of the “k hole”, truly interesting but the duration of the hallucinations wore g out completely. when they reached the point of bother, g employed halcion and xanax and they acted like a safety net, putting g to sleep and stopping the intensity of the experience that bothered him. g rested in bed for the next 2 days, being unnaturally tired and easily able to sleep. 

this experience coupled with d’s advice led g to be far more vigilant about his diet, nutrition and frequency of eating. g eats 3 meals and is drinking tons of electrolytes, trying to recover what he lost. g will be avoiding ketamine for a while, simply because the experience was so intense.

on to the special gift. dear readers, g has (yet again) performed a feat of magnificence. he has translated and cleaned up the text of the famous 1911 book phantastica: the use and abuse of plants worldwide by Louis Lewin, originally written in a combination of german and spanish editions, and released an ebook of it in both epub and pdf format. g will be uploading copies and posting links here for readers to be able to access it for the first time. it is a truly fascinating read, written before any of our time in a style very unique to Lewin and covers everything from opium, laudinum, paregoric, heroin to amphetamines, khat, betel nute, chloral hydride, nitrous oxide, diethyl ether, tobacco, marijuana. it is an incredible work, like an encyclopedia. 

it will be coming soon along with a site redesign that clearly locates sections for tutorials (for things like cold water extraction, smoking oxycontin/oxycodone, smoking fentanyl, street drug buying, tor and silk road, video tutorials), photo gallery with all the photos by class of substance and maybe even a forum for our readers who wanna discuss such things over coffee, a bowl or lines :)
