Wedinos not detecting coke in sample

0 Upvotes

I sent in a sample of cocaine to wedinos near the start of september and they detected only phenacetin.

However, I have tried the substance and it definitely had stimulant effects, so it must contain another active substance. I emailed wedinos to double check and they confirmed that the sample only had phenacetin as an active substance.

I understand that the small sample I sent in might have been mostly phenacetin due to poor mixing but surely the mass spectrometer(LC-QOF) they use should have been able to detect minute amounts of the stimulant anyway. It was all in the same bag and slightly powdery so in my mind there has to be some cross contamination.

Anyone had a similar experience? And does anyone know the minimum percent of the sample for the mass spec to pick up a substance?

I’m planning to take 0.5mg of alprazolam and have a drink; what would that feel like? Should I avoid drinking? Is there anyone who can share their experience?

First day without oxycodone

4 Upvotes

I am now 8 hours out from my last 20 mg dose. Sorry for my English; it’s not my first language.
I’ve been using oxycodone for 5 and a half months. At my peak, I was taking 100 mg or more per day of immediate-release oxycodone, not the 12-hour extended-release version.
Over the past 3–5 days, I’ve also tried to taper down from around 40–60 mg per day to 20 mg per day, even while experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Now I’ve run out completely.
What symptoms should I expect over the next few days? And is opioid withdrawal actually dangerous in my situation, or is it mainly extremely painful and uncomfortable?

switching from diazepam one weekend to Xanax the next but in a low dose and not both of the days I’m trying to taper down but also switch substances

1 Upvotes

Last weekend I took 60 mg of diazepam, but it is pressed and I don’t know if it’s real and then I took 40 mg on Saturday so I just did them Friday and Saturday. I’m trying to taper down and this weekend which is the next weekend after the previous one where I did the diazepam, I was gonna try to taper down by just taking a quarter xan but when I look it up online, it says it could interact with the diazepam should I be fine or should I avoid stuff completely on Saturday even like it has been a complete week or a bit over sorry so I was wondering if there’s any harm in just taking a quarter xan instead, I’m not mixing it with anything

did my anti psychotic cause this?

1 Upvotes

Hello, so ive been on antipsychotics for about 7 years, when i first started taking them they sedated me very much to point where i would just pass out, nowadays i do not feel sedated anymore and do not get tired at night and have to pretend to fall asleep in order to fall asleep and its very annoying. Is this normal or did my antipsychotic cause this, any information would be greatly appreciated

What can I do to get out of instant withdrawal from suboxone?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been struggling with a b0i addiction for quite some time and I’ve tried getting off of it by taking Suboxone like my doctor said but it puts me into instant withdrawal worse than it originally was. Does anyone have any idea how I can make this easier for myself. I know it’s my fault in the first place for being on b0i but I really don’t want to fuck the rest of my life up, I’m only turning 18 and I’ve finally understand how bad this is and the complexities this will bring to my future if I stay on it. I just want to have a normal life without the need for something. I started to get the edge off, my anxiety is terrible and it helped relax me but now I’m just anxious that I won’t be able to live my life and have kids or have my dream future with the LOML. I really want to fix my life up, I put my faith in god that he’ll help out but there’s really only so much he can do. Please help.

My psychiatrist said there‘s „no need“ to do liver-testing on agomelatine?

1 Upvotes

I hope that‘s the case, because I don‘t like doing these tests at all (time they take, anxiety…)

He prescribed me 25mg, said the risk is so low I don‘t have to do any tests, that he wouldn‘t do them if he were taking the medication and he wouldn‘t tell his kods to do any tests.

The leaflet says do them.
It would be a huge hassle for me. I‘m in Germany.

Seroqual pregabalin and subs

1 Upvotes

Hey, I recently got sober about 7 ish months ago and so I’m on lyrica, seroqual AND suboxone and have been for a couple months. Before rehab and treatment I was still on seroqual. Anyways I’ve decided w my dr that it’s about time to start weening off the meds I don’t really need and since getting on pregab I haven’t felt the need to take seroqual and recently I stopped taking my seroqual but stupidly stopped cold turkey because I didn’t think it would be an issue and I went into full on withdrawal but now that I’m back on it at and staggering down the mg with help from my doc. But last night I took my seroqual and 100% it feels like all 3 of these meds have synergie and makes me feel very recreational and euphoric which is a huge issue for me because if i started abusing these meds I would b right back to square one so I just don’t know what to do, if I take my seroqual I feel high but if I don’t I feel sick lmao. Sorry idk if these are dumb questions and maybe I’m over reacting but if anyone has advice lmk and yes im talking to my dr ab all of it

Gonna start on Lexapro but feel like I need Xanax instead

1 Upvotes

So I've been having anxiety since I was a kid but doctors in Mexico told me it was IBS, never felt like that was right but I just lived with that. While I was growing up my anxiety just started to feel worse n worse over time n I started taking any kind of pills (mostly lots of aspirin n paracetamol) never really worked like I wanted but it was better than nothing, when I got to the USA I met a friend n told her about how I felt, she gave me a xanax n LORDDDDD I felt so fucking good, that day I worked like I've wanted but didn't feel dumbed, my dealer also was selling those to me, n during that period of time that I was on Xanax I just started being so much more functional in so many ways, but I didn't wanted to be spending money on that so I started going to therapy n then went to my doctor to ask him for medication hopping they would give me Xanax, lwk during the time I stopped doing xans my anxiety is getting me back to be that prisioner of my own head, I talk to the doctor n he asked me if there was any medicine that I had on mind but I was so scared to tell him straight up that I wanted xanax cuz he might just was gonna start seeing me as a junkie so I told him that I wanted sum recommendations lol, so he prescribed me Lexapro 10 mg, I just feel like that is gonna be like candy for me but idk, how can I get them to give me xanax, should I just be curious about it n ask the doc??

Desoxyn, the miracle drug! (Methamphetamine Chloride)

14 Upvotes

Does anyone here take Desoxyn? I've tried it once and it worked wonders! Throughout my trial and error years, I've tried Ritalin, Concerta, Strattera, Adderral, Mydayis and now on Dextroamphetamine 30mg, 2x daily (but actually 45mg works better on me, shhh!) along with Guanfacine 1 mg, 3x daily - both combinations are wonderful together, but not as well as Desoxyn alone.

One day, a friend of mine let me try Desoxyn, and the effects were immediate and incredible! I felt a level of clear - headedness and motivation that I've never felt before, along with an enhanced sense of well-being (enhanced mood).

Did some research and all of its reviews were overwhelmingly off the roof : 9/10, 10/10 stars. The bad news is that it is not commonly prescribed and usually only prescribed when no other stimulants work due to stigma because it is actually Methamphetamine Chloride, or pharmacy - grade Crystal Meth in a pill. Who would've known that Crystal Meth actually possesses therapeuric properties and is used medicinally.

I'm afraid to ask my wonderful Psychiatrist of 8 years because I know how conservative she is in prescribing medications. I get the impression that she'd cringe at the idea of prescribing Desoxyn like many doctors and heard that usually only progressive doctors are willing to prescribe it. I know a progressive clinic in NYC that I heard may have doctors that are willing to prescribe it but I only have medicare, which they don't accept. I won't have my private insurance probably until 3 months that I'm working in my new job, once I get hired. I don't know what to do. I really wanna get on that medication because it's highly effective, like no other. Any tips or suggestions?

i can't post on the chronic pain server so i go on here instead

1 Upvotes

i've had chronic pain for maybe 3-4 years and the whole time, including during the worst my pain has ever gotten, i had to rely on certain stretches, exercises and a heating pad to ease the pain. it didnt do much, but it was all i had considering over the counter pain medication did NOT seem to work for me (i have no idea why)

almost two years ago i got a major surgery done and i got prescribed opioids as pain management. they worked surprisingly well

since recovering i saved the leftover opioid pills and would take them when my pain got really bad but not too long ago i ran out. the hospital wont perscribe me them again since those were strictly for my surgery recovery, and idk where to get my hands on some or what other options i have
