The doctor sent me straight to hospital where they promptly dug it out! That hurt - a lot. It took 12 weeks of the district nurse cleaning it out and packing it twice weekly before it cleared up. There was talk of plastic surgery but thankfully I didn't need it. It has left a 1/2 inch circular indentation in my leg though.Akelamaluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234268568845148285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-84985907580442102252008-03-06T15:32:00.000+00:002008-03-06T15:32:00.000+00:00Anything that zonks ya out: that's for me!!Anything that zonks ya out: that's for me!!Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-64454417198238326102008-03-06T15:16:00.000+00:002008-03-06T15:16:00.000+00:00Glad you're feeling better.

Yes it's quite true the families suffer a lot more than the addict because they don't have the escape of being off the planet half the time. Every trauma causes pain. (Not a brief, befuddled shock before forgetting.) Also I find that phrase "fighting heroin addiction" rather stupid. Anyone genuinely fighting the addiction will be making concerted efforts to stop. Of course most addicts (self included) just wallow most of the time in the morass of their own self-destruction<BR/>:-<...Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-49631939868883073932008-03-06T08:56:00.000+00:002008-03-06T08:56:00.000+00:00Heal well, my friend.As for Rush, ten years or so ...Heal well, my friend.<BR/><BR/>As for Rush, ten years or so ago I had a bumper sticker on my car: “FLUSH RUSH.” I still have the same idea.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16939152657551690867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-82059884904922448262008-03-06T04:22:00.000+00:002008-03-06T04:22:00.000+00:00If anything like that wound ever happens to you ag...If anything like that wound ever happens to you again (let's hope it never will), ask for burn dressings.

This helps not sticking like dry gauze.

I have had family members die choking on their own vomit after a similar experience as you have just had. You seem to be "lucky" if that is the right term for a junkie. My own son has lost/fried his mind, yes another "bad dose / cut" and is living in a psych unit and he was only 19 at the time is now 24yrs. As a parent, I wonder how your parents & siblings cope with what you are doing to yourself. <BR/>I hope that you are more careful with your sources in the future, but more importantly I hope you are able to find the strength within you to "get clean" before you loose whatever is left of that brillant mind.Cazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994942597380042472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-63564030497686484232008-03-05T23:10:00.000+00:002008-03-05T23:10:00.000+00:00Last I knew you were on some methadone program - o...Last I knew you were on some methadone program - or was is suboxone?

It's not necessarily some forienger cutting this stuff - it's the guy down the street, or the one they get it from or ...whoever. And it doesn't matter to them what they cut it with - if it kills you, so what seems to the their thinking.<BR/><BR/>I'm wishing you some peace, some healing and some hope. We can recover, we don't have to live that way anymore and if we really wanna get clean, we can.<BR/><BR/>Just my 10 cents worth for today - because I really do care. <BR/><BR/>Peace, hugs, and real concern and care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-50850100365086622642008-03-05T23:08:00.000+00:002008-03-05T23:08:00.000+00:00Rush Limbaugh?!
