( ((DISCLAIMER)) ): I am NOT a Doctor & this is NOT to be considered as Medical Advice. Rather I am a fully qualified Social Worker & Unsanctioned Experimental Researcher with Extensive Drug & Alcohol Experience who formulated the following EXPERIMENTAL "Ayahausca Assisted Rapid Opioid Detoxification Treatment" model & tested it on myself with profound enough results to raise all kinds of serious questions for "Medical Science" & warrant further investigation.
( ((CAUTION )) ): In STRONGLY ADVISING others NOT to take SIMILAR RISKS I have a social responsibility to point out that although this experiment is supported by medical science this is limited & may be misleading due to the fact that it fails to take into account far more complex variables such as genetic factors & complex metabolic processes with the potential to pose SERIOUS DANGERS including DEATH. Such discussions far exceed the scope of my best attempts of accurately & responsibly document this experiment, & also far exceed my expertise as a Social Worker.
After basically 8months of Oxycodone due to reconstructive surgery on my collarbone that hasn't healed correctly, complicated by some breaks using Hirsuta to block withdrawal as discussed in the previous posts (Injuries, Opiates & Entheogen's & Covid19 & Entheogen's) & having recently reduced to 20 - 25mg whilst rapidly running out - I'm considering Narcaning (Noloxone) myself during the onset of Ayahausca in attempts to induce Precipitated Withdrawal (PW), shortly prior to the Ayahausca providing symptomatic relief whilst facilitating the reconfiguration of Opioid receptors & healing damaged nerve endings surrounding my collarbone. Essentially in a manner similar to Rapid or Ultra Rapid Opiate Detoxification treatment models (ROD & UROD) which involve the administration of Naloxone in conjunction with anaesthetic or other forms of sedation & symptomatic medication ( 1 ). However to the contrary of ROD & UROD in this model it is hypothesised that the specifically targeted formulation of Ayahausca will induce a hyper activated state of consciousness capable of facilitating complex holistic therapeutic actions such as increasing the power & efficiency of autoimmune responses, regulation of inflammatory systems & neuro-regeneration ( 2 ) & has been specifically formulated to include synergetic admixtures with Opioid receptor actions.
Auahausca assisted addiction therapy is far from a new concept with many treatment centres across the world & an increasing number of scientific papers on the subject. Whilst there tends to be a great deal of focus on the psychological actions of Ayahausca in addiction treatment ( 15 & 16 ) there are also scientific papers that examine some of the potential physiological benefits of Ayahausca ( 17 ).
Hypothetically, in addition to detoxification, the simultaneous administration of Ayahausca & Naloxone to an Opiate saturated patient may serve as an potential means of highlighting damaged tissue & nervous systems in the direction of therapeutic actions such as cellular proliferation & broader healing processes facilitated by Ayahausca ( 2 ).

As there appear to be no known contraindications between Naloxone ( 3 ) & anything, or between Oxycodone & MAOi's ( 4 ) ruling out the danger of Serotonin Syndrome the obvious initial concern would be managing fluids whilst avoiding soiling oneself throughout hours of potentially intense gastric or gastrointestinal purging.
Accessing clear information to calculate the most appropriate dose of Naloxone has proven challenging. However, the fact it comes in 400ug preloaded syringes possibly provides a ballpark indication considering I am on a relatively small dose of Oxycodone. However, I have 3 x 400ug doses of Naloxone encase I require more at any point throughout the detoxification process.
Based on extensive experience with Ayahausca & other similar substances (including on-top of a Back Injury, Broken Collar Bone, Viral Meningitis & Peak Covid19) - whilst "psychedelics" drastically increase awareness in manners that can be excruciatingly uncomfortable in too lower dose, providing they are consumed in adequate doses such awareness is usually accompanied with decreased levels of pain which is most likely in different cases to some extent due to regulation of inflammatory systems facilitated by DMT & other psychedelics, in addition to other actions ( 5 & 6 ).
Speaking of additional actions, Salvia Divinorum has been included in the Ayahausca due to a combination of its inflammatory actions, affinity to opiate receptors & potential in pain reduction ( 7 ).
Brugsmansia (Brugs) is another admixture I've included in this batch of Ayahausca due to it's anti inflammatory, anti-spasmodic & analgesic properties ( 8 & 9 ). Although I am currently unaware of this particular variety of Brugs, studies have shown certain varieties to reduce Opiate withdrawal ( 10 ). Although, not generally associated with Ayahausca Brugs is not an unheard of admixture. However, as Brugs is potentially toxic & there are many reported cases of poisoning I have been conservative with the quantities included. One study sights a case where a number of people involved in a ceremony experienced hypotensive, hyperthermic, with some even requiring mechanical ventilation which was attributed to a synergistic effect between harmine and two anticholinergics, atropine and scopolamine ( 17 ). Whilst this article also acknowledges the therapeutic effect of Harmala Alkaloids in relieving Opiate withdrawal it also strongly advises caution ion the synergetic interactions between Harmine & atropine & scopolamine. Another article, of around 30 cases there were no fatalities & subjects were predominantly treated with Benzodiazapines (Valium) ( 11 ). Fortunately, as I am currently prescribed Valium I have appropriate medication on hand if required. However, the anti inflammatory & anti spasmodic actions of this formulation of Ayahausca are ideally intended to void the need for such symptomatic medications.
Due to its potential toxicity I have been conservative with Brugs as an admixture in maximising the safety of consuming DMT heavy doses of Ayahuasca as large as necessary to cover PW. Although a lethal dose of Ayahausca could not be determined in Rats, it proved to be above what the study calculated as 50x a "dose taken during a religious ritual" ( 12 ) which indicates its physically impossible to overdose on the oral consumption of Ayahausca that doesn't contain potentially toxic admixtures. Ruling out the possibility of overdose, my experience with "it is better to take too much than too little" seems particularly relevant whilst inducing something as violently painful a precipitated opiate withdrawal.
On this note one must consider the fact that despite the medical evidence supporting my hypothesis - it might go horribly wrong & result in my being left in a desperately painful state of vulnerability.
According to Healthline although Suboxone (Brupronorphine + Naloxone) can induce Precipitated Withdrawal (PW) as a contraindication to various opiates, it can also be used as an antidote to Narcan induced PW which would suggest it may wise to have on hand as precautionary measure encase my hypothesis surrounding Ayahausca & Narcan induced PW is incorrect ( 13 ). However, if this were the case there are a number of extremely dangerous considerations to take into account. Whilst several Pub-med journal articles suggest there are no contraindications between Naloxone, MAOi's & opiates within the class of Oxycodone & Buprenorphine ( 3 & 4 ) - I am finding conflicting information suggesting medications such as Targin (Targin = Oxy + Naloxone) & Suboxone have potentially dangerous contraindications with MAOi's (particularly irreversible MAOi's) but these do not specify weather the interaction concerns the opiate or the naloxone. Furthermore, although not relevant to this experiment it is social responsibility to acknowledge - potentially fatal contraindications or serotonin toxicity reactions between MAOi's & phenylpiperidine class opioids, such as pethidine, tramadol, methadone, dextromethorphan and propoxyphene are medically recognised ( 4 ).
I have never had trouble consuming Ayahausca ontop of orally administered Targin in the past which could be due to using "Reversable MAOi's". However, am also cautious of the fact that IV administration of Narcan/Naloxone to induced PW from Oxycodone bypasses complex metabolic processes that could potentially make it far more dangerous. In addition to this, whilst MAOi's have the potential to inhibit the metabolism of opioids such as Oxycodone other regular medications such as Dexamphetamine have the potential to increase metabolic processes ( 14 ). In addition to such relatively small metabolic considerations, the powerful autoimmune responses facilitated by the DMT (5 & 6) in the Ayahausca have the potential to drastically increase the metabolism of the Naloxone & Oxycodone. Not to mention the potential opiate receptor interactions of Salvia Divinorum & Brugs ( 7 & 10 ).
Even if Suboxone were a viable fallback option should my hypothesis prove incorrect & things take a turn for the worst - self administering Suboxone during a desperately vulnerable of PW in an altered state of consciousness presents obvious risks of overdosing in which case I would not be in a psychologically or physically capable state to self administer Naloxone to prevent death. Despite great consideration Suboxone is far too dangerous to consider as a backup.
Therefore, obviously the smarter, more sensible & disciplined approach would be to commence my Ayahausca Assisted Rapid Opioid Detoxification Treatment Plan whilst I still have a small amount of Oxycodone left to fall back on in conjunction with valium symptomatically if required. Besides, bringing things forward a day will fit better between trying to juggle appointments & other commitments too.
Dosages & planned order of treatment:
This particular "Ayahausca" Recipe: Total: 1L / 1000ml
DMT: A. Acuminata, fresh 650-750g fresh (originally weighed @ 750g but brewed in three seperate lots over three days individually weighing less possibly due to a combination of dehydration of material & shit scales) + seedpods pods (fuck knows). A. Courtii ? (An older brew I threw in containing roughly 5-6g Syrian Rue & approx 60g dry Acuminata seedpods).
MOAi: Syrian Rue 25g, Caapi/Psychotria Aya (concentrate) ? (Concentrate from a friend & impossible to calculate or overdose on anyways).
Salvinorin A Salvia Divinorum 3g dry
Brugsmansia Two Large leafs (as pictured)
Consume Ayahausca.
Inject 400ug of Naloxone around 20minutes into Aya onset.
Monitor onset & administer additional Naloxone & Ayahausca as required.
Drink fuck loads of water & make sure towels & buckets are within reaching distance to piss, shit & vomit in as required.
Although the above should be ample symptomatically take as much Valium as necessary if required.
Worst case resort to opiates 5 x 5mg Oxycodone & 3 x 30mg Codeine/Paracetamol.
Try to document what I consume encase I get too far out of my depth & need to call for medical assistance (not that I expect them to know WTF to do with this. lol.)
If things go south I'll no choice but to ride things out with the relatively small amount of symptomatic medications I have access to. However, even if my hypothesis proves correct I will be in for one hell of a healing experience that will most likely involve intense gastro & gastrointestinal purging which will be extremely challenging to manage on my own in a heavily impaired state of consciousness. In this sense this is the first time I feel far enough out of my depth that I could do with a nurse or "spotter" who I trust & ideally has appropriate experience.
Unfortunately one of the two people I trust with medical experience aren't talking to me & the other isn't available, whilst the other person I trust with experience with entheogenic purging probably isn't available or appropriate to ask - so the best I can do is prepare myself as best I can & hope things go as smoothly as possible.
Nevertheless, will be interesting how things go if I have the guts to follow through!!!

Update - Wednesday 3rd of August: After Successfully Completing Treatment
..................................................................................................................................................................................
Although the original plan was to commence treatment in the morning I decided it was wise to better prepare myself. Although in withdrawal I held off as long as I could before finally taking one 5mg Oxycodone at 1115am to take the edge off just enough to kind of function in preparing for all possibilities. As a component of this I cleared out my bedroom & set it up with only the essentials required for treatment. These included a huge pile of towels & buckets within reaching distance of the bed for potential purging, 10L water, drink bottle & syringes encase I couldn't keep fluids down. I also decided it was wise to plant a key & notify a few trusted friends with appropriate experience. I set up the dresser draw workstation (as pictured below) beside the bed as with a full inventory of all medications encase things went wrong & someone needed to figure out exactly what I'd consumed.
At roughly 1815pm 2nd of August, upon commencing treatment - I sent the following prewritten group message, along with links to this experimental treatment model & a photo of my work station to some of my closest trusted friends who posses relevant experience encase I required assistance.
These included Dr Anne McKenna former DASSA employee with years of experience specialising in drug & alcohol treatment, my beautiful "ex" Belinda Gilbert & close friend Sam Helsham.
"Dear most trusted friends... My address is **** **** St Unley & I have planted a key in the bin to the right of the door encase I become unresponsive or require assistance & am too impaired to communicate effectively. I have provided a detailed inventory of medications & other potentially relevant info as photographed beside my bed encase anyone needs to know exactly what I've consumed. Assuming the Ayahausca holds off most symptoms without adverse reactions - my greatest challange will be maintaining fluids throughout potentially intense purging. I have 10ml syringes & butterflies encase IV fluids are required, & some basic medications I hope to be unnecessary. However if this goes south I could be in alsorts of trouble. Particularly as I've added Brugsmansia to the Ayahausca which although in minimal amounts could result in respitory issues due to synergistic effects with MAOi's. Obviously, I really don't need this to end up in emergency. However, even if that unavoidable - I doubt they'd be able to get their heads around the complexities of the situation enough to help & could potentially even make things worse without being adequately informed. So everyone's in the loop - I'm sending this mesage to Belinda, Anne & Sam, upon taking the 1st dose to commence treatment. I understand everyone has heaps of shit on their plates & may not be available. I'm not allowed to contact Katherine or ask anyone else to. However, she is a nurse & the only other person with relevant experience who I'd trust to come in my house whilst in such a vulnerable state. Therefore, if anyone thinks it's wise to forward this message & the link to my treatment plan just encase that's not my call. As much as I don't want to create panic & am hoping I don't require assistance - on this occasion I feel it is wise to inform the right people of exactly what I'm doing as even if things go well this could easily become far more than I can safely manage on my own. Much Love ❤"
.................................................................................................................................................................................
The following spreadsheet provides a detailed medical inventory leading up to the testing of my experiment "Ayahausca Assisted Rapid Opioid Detoxification Treatment".
Between my attempts at accurately documenting the above medical chart & the video footage it appears that Dr Anne McKenna contacted me @ 1851hrs moments after intravenously self administering my first 400ug of Naloxone (which I replied to her as having done by 1854hrs). This can be viewed at between 8-10minutes on Universal Asylums Youtube channel: Ayahausca Assisted Rapid Opioid Detoxification Treatment Model **[EXPERIMENT]** (Full Video). As represented by the testing throughout the footage - Dr McKenna maintained communication over the following couple of hours as I at times proceeded to go against her responsible advice & self administer more Ayahaucsa & Naloxone in testing my hypothesis. Interestingly, IV self administration of 400ug of Naloxone not only failed to induce precipitated withdrawal but I experienced any of the typical physical symptoms of opiate withdrawal such as goosebumps, tremors, hot & cold flushes, stomach cramps, muscular cramps & didn't even break a sweat.
I forgot to start the video until after my first dose of Ayahausca but had it running within 20minutes & prior to my first dose of Naloxone. The interesting part of such footage is how incredibly fucking boring it probably is to watch as the treatment was so effective that I experienced none of the potentially violent purging I anticipated. As previously stated, upon IV administration of the first 400ug of Naloxone absolutely nothing happened - I don't even break a sweat. Whilst Dr McKenna was urging caution not to put myself into Precipitated Withdrawal - things were going so smoothly that I drew from her medical experience in deciding to go against her advice to test the limits of my hypothesis as to whether under such conditions it was at all possible to induce some level of withdrawal.
I proceeded to self administer another 2 x 400ug of Naloxone (total 1200ug) in conjunction with 2 additional 50ml doses of Ayausca at decreasing intervals again without inducing any typical physical signs of opiate withdrawal. As stated in the above chart 50ml of Ayahausca @ 1930hrs & 400ug Naloxone @ 1940hrs [View 2nd Naloxone Administration between 60-62min Here:] followed by another 50ml Ayahausca @ 2000hrs & 400ug Naloxone which I nearly lost due to getting caught in packet & pulling plunger out @ 2010hrs [View 3rd Naloxone Administration from 89-91min Here:]. If I could go back I would have administered the whole 1200ug in a row. However, being uncharted ground juggling many complex variables I probably maintained a sensible balance of testing the water.
Nevertheless, anyone who understands the complexities of opiate dependance / withdrawal would be likely to agree that the results of this experiment could well be considered monumentally groundbreaking to say the least & raise all kinds of questions for medical science. Although, struggling to find footage of the harsh reality of IV administration of Naloxone to an opiate saturated individual to present in contrast to the footage of this experiment that I'm yet to retrieve in a usable format - Any medical professional with experience will tell you most people are far from fucking happy you just saved their life at the expense of inducing peak withdrawal.
The only physical sign of withdrawal I experienced throughout the entire night was a slight tremor ass the initial 3 x 50ml doses of Ayahaucsa wore off towards the 5hour mark around 2300rhs. However, I expected this would be easily resolved by consuming more Ayahausca as much as the thought of the taste wasn't overly appealing. After some contemplation I looked at the clock & it was 1111hrs which I took as a sign of fate to motivate me to swallow another 150mls of Ayahausca in one hit. Thereafter I spent the next 6-7hours laying peacefully in bed quite comfortably experiencing no physical signs of opiate withdrawal whilst pondering over what this treatment model potentially means to medical science & humouring myself with the disturbingly bullshit nature of our entire social structure whilst my system smoothly & efficiently sorted itself out.
Interestingly the "psychedelic" aspect of the experiment typically associated with Ayahausca wasn't particularly overwhelming although for a moment I wondered if I'd overdone it as the 2nd 50ml kicked in almost immediately after I consumed the 3rd 50ml dose. Although obviously physically present & functionally impaired throughout the first couple of hours there were stages of gentle transcendence over the following 10hrs (4.5 of which I have footage though some is in darkness). There are a number of considerations here which I will update later as I have a friends birthday & memorial to attend that along with the "job interview" were motivations for the rapid detox in ensuring I would not be in withdrawal & in comfortably functional state. Whilst this is possibly due to the potency of the brew or conservative initial dosages I consumed it could also potentially be due to the energy of the alkaloids within the brew facilitating complex actions associated with the detoxification process.
Although, I'd skipped my regular dose of valium as a component of testing my hypothesis without the use of symptomatic medications typically associated with the management of opiate withdrawal - At 0600am I eventually decided it was wise to take 15mg of Valium & slept until 0900am.
Aside from being a tad lethargic (to be expected after three hours sleep) & experiencing some Diarrhea I am not presenting with any typical opiate withdrawal symptoms.
Despite such a feat I received a response for my application to become a Community Advisor on SA-Healths Drug & Alcohol Services South Australia - Community Advisory Council. Although they clearly made the wrong decision, they provided great feedback stating that my application was very strong & encouraging me to continue applying for future positions.
Hopefully, once this is updated I will be able to send it through to be considered in my application for a Senior Projects Officer position with SA-Healths Drug & Alcohol Services South Australia. After all, part of my motivation to formulate this treatment model was not wanting to managing opiate withdrawal if I were to be selected for an interview.
Anyways, I have to go for now for an appointment with my psychologist.
As far as my pain is concerned at this stage its difficult to tell. It is still noticeably uncomfortable. However, I probably won't know for sure until I put it to the test attempting to dance or via a hardcore porn binge.

Update - Friday 5th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
After roughly 6hours sleep on the Wednesday night:
Despite experiencing no signs of withdrawal & excited to forward the results of this experimental treatment model to Drug & Alcohol Services South Australia for consideration for my SA Health. Drug & Alcohol Services SA. Senior Project Officer Application. in time before hearing back from them - Shortly after doing so I received a reply that my application had been rejected. This was an emotionally devastating blow as considering the nature of my application I would like to have thought I was at least worth an interview. However, I have emailed them for feedback to it will be interesting what they have to say for themselves.
In terms of where this has left me in terms of physical pain surrounding my collar bone injury. Although my shoulders is still uncomfortable it appears to have improved. In putting it to the test I took 50mg Diclofenac (anti-inflammatory) & went out salsa dancing at Cue Bar Norwood to my favourite local Latin band Lazaro Numa & Sabor a Cuba last night Thursday the 4th August. I took it easy but although to some extend uncomfortable was able to enjoy myself. Will need to give it a few runs to get a better idea though & will continue to update over following days. Still no signs of withdrawal & sleeping like a baby.
Last night I slept from around 0100hrs until 0900hrs.
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update - Saturday 6th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Didn't sleep great last night. Waking up after a couple of hours. Got arguing with some prick on the internet. Didn't get back to sleep until around 0530-0600hrs & woke up again around 0910hrs.
Collar Bone is quite sore this morning for no apparent reason. Possibly due to combination of lack of sleep & a healthy level of masturbation.
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update Sunday 7th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Grateful to not be in withdrawal & to have had a great but emotional day. Firstly I enjoyed attending my friend Dianna's birthday lunch. Later in the afternoon I attended a beautiful moral celebrating the life of Simon Dolling who recently tragically passed away from cancer. Having known Simon around 15years it was emotional learning parts of his life that put into context certain questions he more recently began asking me regarding DMT/Ayahausca. Obviously, he was one of the few people who'd read enough of my work on DMT & the medical science supporting it to be considering "alternate" treatment options for himself.
Unfortunately, I was only in a position advise him of the dangerous contraindications between medications he was on & the MAOI's in Ayahausca, & suggest research into similar yet potentially less dangerous options that may be worth consideration in making his own informed decisions as an adult.
At Simons memorial I also run into Belinda who I hadn't seen in over 18mths since complex circumstance saw us ceasing contact on mutually traumatic terms. Despite her initiating contact with me recently seeing one other in person was a huge personal milestone that isn't really anyone else's business & I believe was healing for us both.
I'm still uncomfortable but without undertaking too much physical activity my pain has been manageable with anti-inflammatory medications.
I have still been experiencing mild diarrhea but to a manageable degree.
I slept well last night for around 9hrs from around 0000hrs - 0900hrs.
Although tired my soul needed a dance & social interaction so I went to One Dance's event at Plant 4 Bowden for a good mix of Salsa, Bachata & Kizomba. I took two Panadol & an anti-inflametory (Voltaren 50mg) prior to going. My collarbone was uncomfortable but held up pretty good for 4hours partner dancing. Unfortunately, I had a couple of partners early in the night who hurt me by putting too much pressure in the wrong places. I am quite sore now but will watch some porn anyways purely for scientific purposes of really putting it to the test, of course.
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update - Monday 8th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Slept from around 0030hrs - 0910hrs slightly broken due to message tones during the night.
Am struggling emotionally due to a combination of people confusing this experiment as advice & the anxiety of attempting to somehow raise the right type of public attention to it's significance to instigate some form of constructive results that benefit society without potentially sustaining too severe negative consequences.
Am trying to engage constructively on the subject with peers interested in the subject on facebook & am awaiting guidance after admin on DMT Nexus gave me some stern warnings after I joined & made a post under pressure that didn't meet their community standards.
My pain levels were still quite uncomfortable upon waking however settling as the coffee kicks in.
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update - Tuesday 9th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Slept well last night from around midnight to 0730hrs
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update - Wednesday 10th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Didn't get much sleep as had to set alarm early to take car in for repairs which contributed to an exhausting day despite a seemingly positive outcome with the car.
Spent most the day frantically trying to update & fill in the gaps of the complex circumstance leading up to & surrounding my experimental research with entheogen's between communicating & then eventual trying to construct a post for DMT Nexus.
Still no typical signs of withdrawal aside from slight diarrhoea.
Pain levels have been manageable without anti-inflammatories today in the absence of physical exertion.
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Update - Thusday 11th August:
.................................................................................................................................................................................
Slept well again last night.
Woke up to a few phone calls before adding a comment to my DMT Nexus Harm Reduction section to acknowledge discrepancies & provide the correct link to its appropriate title.
After hitting send the screen updated to show two replies to the post that show it wasn't received as well as I'd intended.
It was difficult replying due to a combination of the threat of being banned & the fact that the reply option doesn't allow you to view the comments you're replying to whilst you reply. Once again I've done a shit job of replying & am unsure if I should attempt to add more of leave be for now.
They are right that I perhaps should have read their rules etc, however I am struggling to juggle my priorities & have been doing everything I can to as accurately & responsibly as possible fill in the gaps leading up to & surrounding my unsanctioned experimental research on the Universal Asylum webpage before I come under scrutiny. Something I am experiencing increased anxiety about.
Physically I am felling ok & my diarrhoea appears to be easing.
After some drawn out conversations with DMT Nexus before not hearing back for some time - I used some of their comments as motivation to tidy up the Significant Dates leading to flag burning in Victoria Square: section which is important out of respect for the people throughout the section & something that will require ongoing refinement that although difficult may well assist unresolved grief process. Too tired to check if I've been booted off DMT Nexus or have more replies yet so will leave that for tomorrow.
Although tired I went Salsa Dancing at La Bomba & had a really good time. I took a 50mg Voltaren prior to going out & my shoulder hasn't been too unmanageable though it did cause me some pain.

Emotionally draining couple of days as after doing my best to engage with DMT Nexus - It looks like I'm being socially excluded from an otherwise potentially useful "educational" forum.
Went dancing at Adelaide Dance Projects monthly social dance event last night. Forgot to take anti-inflammatories with me but although sore manage to have an enjoyable night.
Although not completely solid diarrhoea is basically gone.
Have the MIXAEL CABRERA international Cuban artist - Live at The Gov I won curtesy of La Bomba tonight. It's a long night & I am in severe enough pain this evening that I'm considering taking heavier duty pain killers. Will see if a hot shower improves things but defiantly feel I need to at least have on hand just encase.

In the end after anti-inflammatories, Panadol & a hot shower failed to relive my pain I took 10mg of Oxycodone at 7:45pm prior to heading out. After a couple of dances I took another 10mg of Oxycodone at Around 8:30 which proved enough relief to enjoy one of the best Latin bands I've been blessed to dace to.
I was still sore the following day but managed to get through without heavy painkillers & haven't been too bad since.
Although, there are many things I wish I'd had the time to think to do differently such as take urine & blood samples, in addition to having a blood pressure machine to record medical data of more scientifically recognised fashion. However, considering the violent nature of Opioid withdrawal & the clear lack of any sign of physical withdrawal throughout the video footage of the experiment - I feel that the results are of monumental significance to medical science that raise all kinds of serious questions surrounding our opioid receptor & the holistic therapeautic value of N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) & Other "Forbidden Fruit" - Central Nervous System Specific Nutrients.
Nevertheless, having recently been informed that I'll require further surgery on my collar bone - there's always next time!
