Well, : Well, smoking in feces could introduce a number of bacteria to the lungs, that belong in the gut, not the lung.  If you develop pneumonia or sepsis that could be quite dangerous to your health. At this point, definately recommend that you see a doctor to have your lungs checked out.

No, there are drug: interactions between the components of the various Nyquil products &amp; Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine).

Meth is Bad!: It means that Meth is Bad! It adds absolutely NO VALUE to your life and will kill you as sure as a bullet and sometimes as rapidly. This bleeding should resolve with time and clean living. Wish you well with your addiction treatment.

Question 7

is this normal or dangerous everytimemy friend shoots meth she pukes/coughs up blood??

Accepted Answer

Why do you ask?: I'm most concerned about you -- or that anyone would think it is "normal" either to vomit or cough up blood, or to inject methamphetamine in the first place. "Friends" like this will drag you down. Urge her to get help with both her habit -- which will destroy her and hurt those who care about her -- and a physician's care for what could be TB that endangers those around her. Please do this.
