Title: Any danger shooting h&coke while being treated for blood clot?
Post by: MoeMentim on February 24, 2017, 08:06:08 AM

I got a blood clot in my leg from sitting on my ass while unemployed.  I haven't chipped since last winter & want to celebrate my new job with a little "vacation."  I'm on blood thinners, leg still hurts so the clot is still there.  I know that iv use can cause clots but is there any danger of it being dislodged because of IVing street drugs?

My guess would be the coke could hurt you while the H would be fine. The blood clot could get worse with the compression of the capillaries and the increase of the blood pressure, or worse released and go to the lungs/brain and such.  This is totally just a guess though.

I know if your having circulatory issues, its common in the ER to give morphine to ease the heart. So I'd assume H is fine?

@MoeMentim how are things going with this?  I agree with OpiXPO the dope is probably fine but the coke will fuck with you, esp if it's cut with levamisole, which most of the coke going around these days is.  Also the way coke will cause rapid increase in your BP is not good for dissolving the clot either, and could probably cause it to dislodge more easily and risk a pulmonary embolism, which is a life threatening emergency and very painful.  Finally, my own speedball experiences always caused dehydration, which thickens the blood and is the exact opposite of what you want right now.

I'd wait till it's all clear and you're off the warfarin or whatever blood thinner drugs they have you on.

Probly a bad idea man. I wouldn't risk it.


Def stay off the Coke. Dope, well, that's hit and miss but unless u have a solid vein don't go fishing around your legs. I'd stay away from ur lower body while that clot is there....

Thanks guys, i kinda thought the coke would be the more worrisome of the two.  At this point i think I'll be passing on a chip, first winter I've not broken down & copped since "quitting" 94 years cone may).  had been unemployed for a few months & in a bad spot emotionally when I made this inquiry.  I got an awesome new job that's pulled me out of it so I'm not really thinking about it anymore. :)
