Wow that’s shocking.. spiking used to be putting a double spirit in a pint….expensive, stupid but not what seems to go on now. Wish you a speedy recovery @MorkC68
Michelle was fine, I was acting very drunk yet I’d only had two lower alcohol beers. Drs did a thorough job, I had blood tests, my BP was 97/54 & 113/64, an ecg, a chest x Ray, head ct scan, body ct scan, litre of fluids, another blood test & my kidney function was 57 and it should be above 60. im fine now & the good staff at NET looked after me & got a taxi to hospital.
I got spiked years ago by one of the tossers we were out with but it wasn't anything like your experience , in fact , quite the opposite () but glad you're ok - sounds scary . Arseholes. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
It’s a sorry state of affairs to stoop that low when you’re mates with someone. I’m fine now mate thanks!
What do people spike drinks with? I do worry about this, when my kids go out. Seems to be an increasing problem, like getting stabbed.
Glad you are better now, but did the hospital test confirm you were spiked, rather than had a bad pint, dirty glass or just got suddenly ill, as sometimes happens for no apparent reason. I'm sceptical about the numbers of young women who say they get spiked, which seems to have coincided with a surge in the popularity of drinking obscure, strong cocktails.
By the time I was able to get the vials of blood (they struggled) it was a few hours later and the fact I only drink 1/4 of the pint. I’d only drunk lower alcohol lager so it was excessive obscure drinks. Because of the sudden shoulder and back pains & blurred vision they focused on heart attack or a stroke. I’ll ask my Dr nxt week & see what he says was found.
I remember some guy getting his drink spiked, and a few other people came forward with similar issues on the same night. Turns out also that night someone was dealing some screwed up mix of speed that wasn't speed but whatever crap they could get to look like it - it was reckoned someone who bought the stuff realised it was fake stuff and was getting rid of it in people's drinks - yep , why not just dump it down the loo? Proppa screwed up. Not sure if they ever found out who it was
My friend Andrew found a 9th century recipe for mead in the cathedral library and started making it. We'd go back to his house when the pubs shut for a glass of the wonderful stuff then go absolutely ape Marmite, rugby tackling bikes and generally hurting ourselves while laughing like loons. It became a regular event until one day he admitted there was a secret ingredient in the mead - barbiturates. Naughty boy. He wasn't all bad, he used to raid his parent's wine cellar for £50 bottles of delicious wine. That would be 2 weeks of my wages then!
I think things have moved on somewhat since my experience . In hindsight I was probably slipped a couple of Es which gave me a euphoric few hours rather than anything sinister which caused Marks weirdness and seems to be prevalent lately . Bit of a bugger when even 'gentleman of a certain age' can't enjoy a night out ... Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
