Numbness at first time use of a bit of meth
My girlfriend swallow meth at the very first
time. She only took a little bit and no more after that. After 2
days, her left side of her body felt numb. We went to the doctor
and take a blood check. I didn't see the result, but she told me
that the meth trigger her stroke because her body is so
vulnerable and she needs to get a stroke treatment. She still
feel numb on her left side after almost a week.
My question is, how bad can a small amount of meth can effect your body?
Is it normal that numbness? How long that numbness gone?
Since she never show me the result, does she lie about the
stroke?
Anyone have any suggestion....
Thanks |

Meth causes blood pressure and heart rate to
increase. This can cause a stroke. |

Re: Numbness at first time use of a bit of meth
I have heard of this and it actually happened
to me. My left little finger went numb and then half of my left
hand a week later, it stayed numb for 6 months. I asked around
and it happened to several other people as well.

Meth can cause strokes. I had an old friend
that I heard had a major stroke after using. He was a heavy
user, but since it raises blood pressure and heart rate, it
could be possible. |

Possibly a TIA stroke?
Quote:
A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is
a transient stroke that lasts only a few minutes. It occurs
when the blood supply to part of the brain is briefly
interrupted. TIA symptoms, which usually occur suddenly, are
similar to those of stroke but do not last as long. Most
symptoms of a TIA disappear within an hour, although they
may persist for up to 24 hours. Symptoms can include:
numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on
one side of the body; confusion or difficulty in talking or
understanding speech; trouble seeing in one or both eyes;
and difficulty with walking, dizziness, or loss of balance
and coordination.

I've heard of this happening before.
It can happen without meth, but the incidence may increase with
meth use. Just a guess on my part, however.
One of my close family members had a TIA stroke without meth. |

Re: Numbness at first time use of a bit of meth
I watched a show about a 15 year old Indian
girl who died when she used meth for the first time.
I think she had a stroke, but I can't remember for sure. She
complained of a headache and then she was dead.
Her mom's friend stopped by looking for her mother. Her mother
wasn't home so she offered to let her try some meth. |

It's real easy to eat too much meth!
A friend who ingested meth orally, supposedly for the first
time, ended up in ER and was flown unconscious to ICU in Spokane
where he spent a few days, two of his "friends" who provided him
with this wonderful experience also went to ER.
Leo was out to lunch following his release from the hospital, he
went down hard!
Including falling and smashing his face on the tile floor of the
ER.
What appears to be a "bit" of meth when taken orally may be a
whole lot more than it appears, particularly the high test "ICE"
we're seeing more of.
In Leo's case it most certainly was.
One IS too many! |

Re: Numbness at first time use of a bit of meth
I agree with Danimal.
For those who are not familiar with meth, it can appear to be
much less than it really is.
A gram of meth, which is enough to last many addicts a week or
so is a great amount. A quarter gram is even huge.
A gram is about the size of a sugar cube. |
