Health - Benzo and spots

[msmogadon]

SWIM posted a thread on another section ages ago asking if there was any links to taking drugs and having spots.
There was no proof as to date. Howerever SWIM has been hitting the diazepam pretty hard over the Christamas period and has been suffering from those hard lump type spots on her chin again. Also she has been well... maybe SWIM won't mention. But there are some big time side effects to these things. Sore tummy, dark stools dark in colour a destictive smell very nice LOL
Anyone want to share there deepest darkest??

Sounds like an allergic reaction more than anything.

[msmogadon]

Nah SWIM has been a benzo user for coming on 8/9 years now and dosn't suffer things like this unless its at high doses now, around 50/60mgs about twice a day.
SWIM is not too bothered. Yes just happy the she's managed to discover what was the source is now

can you describe the spots on your chin?

like for example---what do they feel like (painful, itchy, sire, etc), what color are they, how many do you have, how big are they, how long do they stick around---stuff like that.

tbh, the tummy thing sounds like ya may have something going on with your GI tract--like possibly a stomach ulcer (hence the pain and the dark-colored/funny-smelling dooks.) btw these dark-colored snakes wouldn't happen to be black and tarry would they???? if so, then you almost certainly have an upper gi bleed of some sort. pm me or post reply for deeper analysis. -DICK

LOL don't worry us SWIMs have had this conversation already! Its just that this SWIM is for sure now that these spots only come on a diazepam binge. She's also had these weird smelly jobbies after a diazepam usages in high doses

sometimes drugs/toxins cant come out just in piss and other outlets, so it comes out in spots and stuff,,,,,,,also have a good wash every day or every 2 days,,,,flush swiy's body with water, eat healthily.

swim too did alot of valium over xmas, but swim just drops them all on the same night. swim loves vallerys, but swim knows he'd get addicted, so its just a treat

[msmogadon]

SWIM is sometimes so fucked she realises she's not really washed her face for a day or 2. Yuk I know but I know some people bad on the gear that NEVER wash. SWIM THINKS THEIR SKIN IS PROBABLY CLEARER. ha ha kidding

[doublezero]

the reason some junkys(smack,crack,amphetamines) look so sick is because they dont eat, they dont wash,,,when they do eat its shit food, they dont drink enough water, and they dont have proper sleep

get a decent face srcub and all that girly stuff and go to work,,,,fruit vitamins and stuff

swim misses spots, he used to love squeezing them, black heads that ended up an inch long, or the shooters that spray all over the mirror

[msmogadon]

The worst thing is SWIM is always using fancy face wash and eats lots of fruit cooks good meal. Unless bf is away working. Periods are always a possible evil rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr get it rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[doublezero]

swiy should stop using benzo's

[msmogadon]

SWIM will just suffer cause its so damn good

[doublezero]

swim knows they are, swim just does a shit load once a week, or once a fortnight. Blues and yellows, swim loves going out on a few, mixed with alcohol and energy drinks. Especially after a night wiv molly with some good music to dance too........................................mid january swim should meet valery next.

[allyourbase]

swim gets these too. upon a doctors advice he was told they are calcite buildups in lieu of lipid buildups...benzodiazapines are highly lipid soluable, but if one has less than the appropriate amount of fat to absorb these materials the human body makes...exceptions shall we say....and these include calcite build up, boils, and odd lumps in the gums and tongue (highly lipid tissue).

swim has found these to be SERIOUS problems when dealing with protein binding benzodiazapines (think ativan and klonopin, or really any benzo with two halogens). the "exiting" of the odd colagenic material made in the protein binding often happens months after consumption and can cause serious problems in areas of heavy blood flow.

ha, i just realized that 'spot' must be the Queen's English for 'pimple!' am i right? -DICK

[msmogadon]

or zits, plukes anyone know any others?? This could be amusing.....

Got this from the BBC website:

If the swelling in a pore is in the upper layer of the skin, a white head appear on the skin's surface. If however it is deeper down, it causes a nodule or cyst. These are visible as tender swellings without a white head. If attempts are made to squeeze these kinds of spots the inflammation will spread, making the problem worse. This often leads to the typical pitted acne scarring.


Like SWIMs chin
