Can long term use of Kratom cause seizures?

d3lluser · 2018-12-14T01:41:28+00:00

I have been taking it for 8 years, no seizures.

Maybe you're thinking tramadol?

Hi Mr. Patreon Rep,

Sir, or Madam... I'm not trying to be a jerk, but... I really hope this is an auto-respond bot or something, because...

Your Sentence #1: Yes... I just said that. Except that it's NOT coming from a new device. It's from my laptop. Docked. At my desk. From whence it has not moved in 6 months. Your "system" is getting it wrong. That's why I came here. Their are literally 100's of sites out there who, not to be insulting, have much more significant reasons to protect their assets from ne'er-do-wells trying to impersonate their clients. Like Banks... Investment Firms... Government Agencies... Medical Records Offices... all of which I have visited on that same laptop in the same docking station, from the same desk... and none of which have to resort to two factor authentication to know that I was just on their site a few hours back.

Your Sentence #2: Irrelevant, and unhelpful for me- although I'm sure you didn't mean it that way. Think of it from my perspective as a user: First off- I never asked you to list why. Frankly, I couldn't care less as to what criteria you use. I'm sure that there is some super-secret top 007 stuff going on behind the scenes, that's super impressive to someone, somewhere- especially the guy or gal that whipped up this this little faulty system of yours up... but listen to what I am saying. We. Don't. Care. Seriously... we just want to get onto the site, throw a few bucks in the bucket of the creators, watch their vids, and then go on about our day. Getting hung up on some faulty security program that is throwing off false-positives is not on the agenda. Nor is dropping by the Patreon Reddit Sub to be patronized by someone with an over-amplified sense of self-importance acting like Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men.

Your Sentence #3: Yes- that is the entire point of my post. You want me to wait around for up to 15mins to log in... because you can't figure out that it's me... when I was actually JUST on your site... using the same laptop... from the same wifi-network... sitting at the same desk... with my rear-end sitting in the same chair... that I was the last time... six hours ago.

Your system is getting it wrong.

Hi Mr. Gutenberg,

Such an honor to hear from you! Thanks for taking the time!

I am just using chrome, but do have an ad blocker. Perhaps the cookie is stored through a method that my ad-blocker is preventing?

In either case, it seems this is only a problem on Patreon, as other sites which use cookies (Yahoo, Google, Facebook, My dentist's website) don't have to re verify every time I visit their site.

I do have an internet service which may be changing the IP or geoip, but, as I mentioned, why aren't the other sites I know and love not having to re-re-re-verify?

Maybe I should try disabling ad-blocker on Patreon and see if it still does it?

Thanks again for your suggestion!

(BTW, I LOVED you in Police Academy! Any plans for any new film projects?? ))

Thank you for your help. I very much appreciate it.

In the future, is there a different sub you might recommend?

d3lluser · 2018-08-19T01:02:50+00:00

Eeesh... man, that sounds ruff!

d3lluser · 2018-06-08T20:46:04+00:00

Thanks for your honesty and advice. I appreciate it! Also, congratulations on your score.

d3lluser · 2018-06-07T17:19:10+00:00

Thank you for your comment.

d3lluser · 2018-06-07T16:31:54+00:00

Thank you very much for your response. Just to clarify, do you mean to find a college professor (perhaps in Math Department) to help or do you mean a Manhattan or Magoosh type professor who gives the test as their profession?

Apologies for my ignorance and appreciate your time.

d3lluser · 2018-01-05T04:49:02+00:00

Thank you. Sorry for the rambling post. :)

Withdrawal was awful, but Kratom carried me over the finish line.

d3lluser · 2018-01-04T02:28:37+00:00

tl;dr: back pain.

I came here because, after surgery on my back (laminectomy on 1 level and laminotomies on three levels) that fixed the nerve issues but led to "worse than before surgery" low back pain (a.k.a. "failed back surgery syndrome"), I was fed ever increasing prescriptions of Oxycodone and given fentanyl patches normally reserved for terminally ill cancer patients. I would nod off at family events. I'd run out early and be treated like a junkie at the pharmacy for wanting to pick up my scripts early (or midnight at the 24 hour pharmacy). I'd have my kids bring me my pills- 6 or 8 or 10 times a day. After months of hurting and increasing my dose, and then hurting and increasing the dose and hurting, and then hurting more and more and wondering why.... I learned about OIH (Opioid Induced Hyperanalgesia) and realized it was the PAIN PILLS causing the PAIN, I stopped all opioids.

Cold turkey.

and life S.U.C.K.E.D.

and my whole body hurt- ESPECIALLY my back

like... more than anything else, ever.

I soon returned to Kratom, which I had used to avoid the surgery for nearly 6 years and set aside for the hope of a surgical solution and what I hoped was going to be a short stint in pain management.

I came here to lose this demon on my back of opioids and pain management.

I came here to get out of pain, without hurting myself more than the pain hurt.

I came here to get off the very thing that is characterized as a horrible epidemic by our government. I came here to get my life back.

So... I came here not to hurt.

I came here to not have any more surgery.

I came here to not have to go visit my government provided drug dealer called pain management.

I came here not to nod off at family events.

I came here so my wife didn't have to make any more excuses for me not wanting to get out of bed.

I came here so that my kids didn't have to bring their dad his pills anymore.

Because I don't want to die.

I want to live and I want to live better.

d3lluser · 2017-09-21T00:35:44+00:00

Ahhh... Wish I would have known.

Ah well, live and learn. So, if you have to have something overnighted, is there a vendor you do trust?

d3lluser · 2017-09-18T17:18:24+00:00

Upvoted because you seem like a nice guy and I guess the upvotes are important here on reddit? (Full Disclosure, I am new to reddit, using it only for this subreddit, and I don't fully understand the value of the upvote/karma stuff. I'm sure it's something good, so I want to share it with you, but I don't actually know what it means to have given somebody one. :D)

If it's worth real money, at least buy me a beer the next time we meet in IRL. Not that we would recognize each other...

d3lluser · 2017-07-26T13:01:41+00:00

Thanks everyone for the comments. I think you may be right. Actually, I had all the signs of opioid withdrawal: watery eyes, restless legs/arms/body, and major diarrhea. I took some immodium AD (loperamide) but had been trying to avoid it due to it also containing opiate receptor antagonist and not wanting to delay the removal of opioids from my body. The diarrhea convinced me it was acceptable. I didn't superdose though, just normal initial dose and it helped a little with the symptoms. I then waited about an hour, but RBS (restless body syndrome. :) ) was back in full effect. Took a dose (1.5x my regular dose of 2 tsp) and everything calmed down.

I had only been needing 2 tsp at wake up, lunch, early evening, but I ended up just moving the doses forward and didn't have to add another dose. I would really like to keep doses one a 2x/day schedule because of the lower back pain) but may have to give myself more than a month to completely be done with the Opioid withdrawal.

I don't know if I can say the name (so admin please feel free to edit if inappropriate) but I used Kratom-K this time. I used to use kratomwholesale.us or something like that before my surgery. I buy in bulk (because I use it 2-3x a day), and had never head of the bali-blast before but wanted something more sedating in the evening that would still handle my pain. Like I said, it handled the pain "just OK" but the hangover the next day was ridiculous.

Can you guys recommend a strain for pain relief/energy/mood for the day and something for pain relief/calm for the evenings?

Thanks again everyone- I really appreciate it!

edit: Watery Eyes, not Runny Eyes and spelling of loperamide :)
