Question about meth lab
I've notices something a little
strange about my addict who doesn't live with me. A month or so
back he had burns on side of his wrist right below the thumb.
Said he burned himself cooking supper. When visiting him a
couple of month’s back he has a 2 bed apt and keeps one bedroom
locked. Now again he has burns on his wrist... said he once
again burned himself making supper. I realize that I'm probably
too suspicious but my question is.. I dunno how to ask basically
what I want to know if these burns in this area could be from
making meth. Is it likely that you'd burn your hands or wrist
when making meth?
Please feel free to tell me that I'm being too suspicious if you
think that I am. I'm just trying to be aware. |

Maybe
My hubby also made his own pipes which causes burns and cuts.
He kept himself covered in band aids all the time... |

Re: Question about meth lab
First if he is cooking meth in
an apartment he has lost his mind. The smell from it would be
very noticable.
He could burn him self in the manufacturing process but not
likely in the same spot every time. The burns you get from
manufacturing are alot of times chemical burns and that is from
being splashed so not likely to be in the same spot everytime.
He could be smoking meth and blowing glass to make pipes and get
burned that way. I have seen some pretty nasty burns from the
glass dropping on skin or laying your arm down on a hop pipe.
I can't say if you are being too suspicious it all depends on
other things that would make you think he is manufacturing.
There are alot of other signs. |

Mine keeps himself covered in
band aids all the time also. I swear he should own stock in the
band aid companies.
I know meth addicts are accident prone.
If I lose SV and my kids end up spending time in a apt with a
meth lab in one room.. I'll never forgive myself. |

Re: Question about meth lab
Greeneyes is right he'd have to
be really really stupid to make in an apt. I really don't think
he'd do that.
Thanks for the link TnSkye it did help.
When he lived with me he did keep his work room window
covered... boarded up or newspaper. I'm thinking it was cuz he
was using in that room.
Thanks! I'll lay my suspicions to rest |

Re: Question about meth lab
I've dated 3 men who made meth
and YES. If they're slopping when they're making it, they can
easily get burnt. My husband once wore long sleeves for like 2
weeks during the summer (90 degrees outside) because he burnt
himself.
Ask yourself, how many other people go around with burns on
their wrists all the time. I'm sorry, but it's not that common,
and I say you're right, he's probably making it.
As far as the comment about him having to be stupid to make it
in an apartment building, helloooooooooo.
You mean to tell me that there are smart people that make meth?
If you ask me, anyone who's coking meth is an idiot. |
