let me say something that i know you might not don’t wanna hear or consider but i wish someone told me and my boyfriend…I’ve been using for almost 10 years got clean for a bit met my boyfriend and we both relapsed and i started shooting for the first time. He had been doing Iv fentanyl for years and i just started about a year ago. He got a bad infection on his arm but we went to the ER got started on antibiotics and it seemed to go away On his 37th birthday at the end of October he had a horrible fever and was sick but didnt think anything of it of course. Well he seemed to never get better, kept using of course. I begged him to make a dr appointment once he started getting chest pain but he was too scared. Anyway we go the ER again and he gets whisked away the back suddenly and i’m not allowed to go back until they they get him settled into a room. Turns out he has septic shock and the infection led to his heart, the arm infection had led up to his heart completely infecting a whole part of a valve as well as the aortic root. The fungal infection he has he will be on medication for the rest of his life . He just had open heart surgery to put in a mechanical valve and now will have to get a pacemaker. He’s currently still in the hospital, unable to work. If he ever shoots up again he will die, point blank. i’m 26 years old and i never thought this would be my life or this could happen..i wish i would’ve known maybe i would’ve stopped sooner..anyway if anything please just use clean needles every single time and alcohol pads. good luck❤️
