im home and laying down.  Legs are very weak but cells are firing up.  Thank you for not judging me and Thank you for your support.  I did get really ill on this one,  and learned several lessons and facts of life. I shed lots of tears and thought about alot of stuff.  Doc werent sure if i would ever walk because i waited nearly 2 months before i fell lifeless. Thank you.  I did have a hard time sharing this and I was very unclean,  would rotate but shoot into my shoulder where i had been around asbestos and mold.  Always in a hurry and i remember using that same point for my last 5 injections.  I just hope that some one takes caution and thank you especially. Ill be on more and look forward to learning from you and others.  Again,  thanks for not judging me,  i would have respected any negativety or cruel words, but thanks for looking out for me. I owe you one</p>

</p><p>So glad that you are recovering brother! I'm not going to preach to you, I'm thankful that you are able to walk even if it's with a cane right now! And you won't get sympathy from me, if you wanted that you'd have to look in the dictionary somewhere between shit and syphilis, that's where you'll find my sympathy! I love you brother! Wishing you a continued speedy recovery!!!</p><p>
After spending 5 weeks,  3 of themlifeless,  broken and in tears,  i gained a whole new respect for women. I had nurses day abd night,  hour on the hour take care of me.  I just want to thank you for respobding and not judging me because your critusizm would have hurt.  I am notgoing to even start talking about what was but, damn, thank you just for respondi ng, making me smile and thank you for your support.  You hard working women are amazing. My therapist was the only reason i walked to the car today.  She is amazing. I just get in a hurry,  dont work in the cleanest environment,  you know,  asbestost or mold is not very clean when you realuze that you have only one pin day left and ive used this pin who knows how many times.  Just know that i look up to you,  respect you,  and will learn fromyou</p>

I am here to humbly thank youfor your response and for not judging me. Im 40,  have done 6 cycles and i put a disease into my bloodstream that nearly killed me and almost left me in a wheel chair.  Im not going into detail bud but listen to these guys, this MG is the shit and I really fucked up by working in unclean environments and using the same rig 6 times to finish mycycle.  Lazy on my part and it cost me 4 vertebrae from my upper thorasic part of my spine.  Im just here to thank you for not judging me and knocking me, but supporting me instead</p>

I just need to tell you with the utmost respect,  thank you for not knocking me and judging me.  I would have listened and respected your voice,  but I learned a cruel and hard lesson.  I almost lost total use of my legs,  and if my spine would have not collapsed,  this disease would have spread septic and..... I walked from the hosputal to the car today,  extremely week but will progress.  Iinjected a dangerous pathogen into my system which is commonly seen in heroin addicts.  The cut 4 vertebrae from my spine and i ate 8 trays a day and actually gained some needed weight.  Three seperate Neuro docs asked if i had ever LICKED the needle.  Lol.  Wow.  Thank you my friend for the optimism and support.  I look up to you and respect you</p>

Hope you're recovering speedily, thanks for sharing, no judgment here brother.  You may have saved another brother's life by posting this. Honesty is bravery! It takes balls to face the Slayer, and when you do, you win. You dominated my friend!

</p><p>Wish you a good and quick recovery. Don't beat yourself up too bad brother. We all in some way, shape, or form make bad choices, make many mistakes in our lives, take unnecessary risks, etc. For whatever reason, more so dudes that females, have a tendency to blow off doing what we know to do because by God we are 10ft tall and bullet proof. When we get injured, we drink water, rub some dirt on it, and it will be fine types aren't we?? Often it takes us getting knocked the fuck down hard before we change our behaviors or ways. Thank you for sharing, takes strong character to do so. Keep your head up, you can't change what is done, only what is ahead of you.   </p><p>
First, thank you for not judging me.  I would have respected your words but appreciate your support even more.  I got out today.  My legs are very weak but im walking and i ate all day and night.  Ill be following and using you as an example. Ive beenhumbled again. I shed tears only able to stare at a ceiling but learned a few more things,  mostly outside the gym.  I paid dearly and will post a pic later.  Lol.  Its not right or normal but i got another chance and ill keep up with you.  Thank you</p><p>
No thanks necessary brother. Keep us all posted and you keep pushing forward. I have no doubt you will get where you want to be. The best recovery mentally, physically, and emotionally comes when we overcome obstacles in our life. You will be a better person overall mentally and physically having learned from it.  </p>

I'm so glad you're recovering well! I've been an ER nurse for almost 10 years so believe me when I tell you; LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!! Infection doesn't jump from 0-100, its grows and grows. Chills, Fever, fast heart rate, weakness, etc. is your body's way of complaining! A very common infection from reusing is ENDOCARDITIS; the infection gets into the lining of your heart! BAAAAADDD. You men are so stoic! Find a hot, ER nurse to have on your team so you can call anytime you need her! ALSO, just read in a medical journal that there's a study going on with pain. As in how different types of pain travel to the brain with different speeds. SO, when you're about to inject, COUGH good and inject at the same time. The force of the cough travels faster to the brain than the injection! I've given shots like that ever since I read the study and IT WORKS!!!
