Under the heel of addiction once again. Maybe this is just who I am. Maybe this is my life.

"We chased this dying light

To break the fall of the setting sun

But what if we don't die young?

If these walls could talk

They'd have no truth to tell

Now hold the hand of heaven

As you hitchhike to hell"

Tuesday I threw my back out cleaning up carrots my baby had dropped. I spent a few hours in the emergency room, and ended up with these. Even taking Percocet, my back still hurts.

Papaver somniferum, commonly known as the opium poppy[2] or breadseed poppy,[3] is a species of flowering plant in the family Papaveraceae. It is the species of plant from which both opium and poppy seeds are derived and is also a valuable ornamental plant grown in gardens. Its native range was east of the Mediterranean Sea, but now is obscured by ancient introductions and cultivation, being naturalized across much of Europe and Asia.

 

This poppy is grown as an agricultural crop on a large scale, for one of three primary purposes: to produce poppy seeds, to produce opium (for use mainly by the pharmaceutical industry),[4] and to produce other alkaloids (mainly thebaine and oripavine) that are processed by pharmaceutical companies into drugs such as hydrocodone and oxycodone.[4] Each of these goals has special breeds that are targeted at one of these businesses, and breeding efforts (including biotechnological ones) are continually underway.[4][5][6] A comparatively small amount of P. somniferum is also produced commercially for ornamental purposes.

 

Today many varieties have been bred that do not produce a significant quantity of opium.[3][5] The cultivar 'Sujata' produces no latex at all.[6] Breadseed poppy is more accurate as a common name today because all varieties of P. somniferum produce edible seeds. This differentiation has strong implications for legal policy surrounding the growing of this plant.[5]

 

Description

 

Papaver somniferum is an annual herb growing to about 100 centimetres (40 inches) tall. The plant is strongly glaucous, giving a greyish-green appearance, and the stem and leaves bear a sparse distribution of coarse hairs. The large leaves are lobed, the upper stem leaves clasping the stem,[7] the lowest leaves with a short petiole.[8]: 40  The flowers are up to 3–10 cm (1–4 in) diameter, normally with four white, mauve or red petals, sometimes with dark markings at the base. The fruit is a hairless, rounded capsule topped with 12–18 radiating stigmatic rays, or fluted cap.[9] All parts of the plant exude white latex when wounded.[7]: 93 [10]: 32

Titusville PD, DEA, Brevard County - "Operation Oxymoron" (Made by ISI Services)

Author Sam Quinones, who wrote “Dreamland: The True Tale of America’s Opiate Epidemic,” told a Delaware audience Oct. 27 that an influx of prescribed opiate painkillers, Americans believing they were “entitled to a life without pain,” a flood of cheap heroin from Mexico and the breakdown of community all contributed to the nightmare of the addiction epidemic. Quinones was brought to Delaware by First Lady Carla Markell and atTAcK addiction, a grassroots group of parents and other individuals who have been impacted by the epidemic. In introducing Quinones, the First Lady said “Dreamland” was a “riveting read.”

 

Quinones points to 1996 as the year that the prescribing of oxycodone and hydrocodone “rise like a plane taking off.” But he said it was the introduction of OxyContin by Purdue Pharma in 1996 that has caused the most harm downstream. “We would not have a heroin problem today if not for Oxycontin. … Here is a story about a drug nightmare created by the private sector.”

 

Quinones said there is not one solution to the addiction epidemic, but a series of solutions that communities – increased treatment services, availability of naloxone, increased prevention efforts, regulation of prescriber habits, law enforcement interrupting the supply chain, rethinking jail, respecting Public Health folks – need to take. And one overriding factor, “The antidote to heroin is not naloxone, it is community. … We spent the last 35 years in America destroying community.”

 

In a panel discussion that followed his talk, DHSS Secretary Rita Landgraf ticked off increased prevention, treatment and recovery services supported by the Governor and the General Assembly, but “what we want to support is communities that support recovery. Recovery lasts a lifetime.”

 

Don Keister, who founded atTAcK addiction with his wife, Jeanne, after they lost their son Tyler to an accidental heroin overdose, said he sees that sense of community in the group’s annual 5K, which drew 2,000 people in March 2016. Next, he said the group would like to support a sober high school.

 

Attorney General Matt Denn said law enforcement needs to keep interrupting drug dealers and working further up the chain. “We have to deal with the supply side. It’s critical that we do.”

 

Dr. Daniel Headrick, founder of Tres Vistas Recovery, said people who in recovery from heroin addiction must begin with “a 90-day brain healing project.” He said the impact on the brain chemistry from opiates is “hard to unwind.”

Papaver Somniferum - Purdue Pharmaceuticals has applied for a new drug application (NDA) with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a tamper-proof Oxycontin pill. Oxycontin is a commonly abused opiate that drug addicts use to crush, melt and inject intravenously. The pill is also ground into a fine powder and snorted for a quick “high.” The new tamper-proof pills will be manufactured in 10 – 80 milligram strengths.

 

The new tamper-proof Oxycontin pill makes it more difficult for opiate addicts to crush, melt or inject the pill. Oxycontin is intended for swallowing, and it releases oxycodone in incremented doses for a period of 12 hours. When snorted or injected, opiate abusers feel a quick high that is dangerous and can sometimes be lethal.

 

The New Tamper-Proof Oxycontin Pill Characteristics

The appearance of the new pill versus the current Oxycontin pill is the same. The stamp on the front of the pill is labeled “OP” instead of “OC.” The colors are the same for each milligram dosage.

The Velvet Mafia at Arlene's Grocery on the Lower East Side of New York City 2005. The Velvet Mafia and Dean Johnson appeared in the 2001 documentary film Freaks Glam Gods and Rockstars ... The NYC Story.

 

The 46-year-old nightlife icon had consumed a toxic mix of oxycodone and four other prescription pills before he passed away.

 

Johnson, a 6-foot-6 drag queen and paid escort, had traveled to Washington to comfort a friend after a man had died in his apartment from an apparent drug overdose just three days earlier.

 

Authorities said that man, Jordan Conklin, 26, had died after consuming a lethal combination of alcohol and oxycodone.

 

The owner of the apartment, Steven Saleh, 47, was not charged in either death.

Falling life expectancy: why America is a ‘death trap’

Life expectancy in the US has reached its lowest level in more than 25 years

 

American lives are getting shorter, said Siobhan McDonough on Vox. The latest data released by the federal government show that the nation’s life expectancy declined for a second year in a row in 2021, to its lowest level in more than 25 years.

 

From about 79 years in 2019, it fell to around 76, the sharpest two-year decline in nearly a century. Most wealthy countries saw their life-expectancy figures bounce back in the second year of the pandemic. Not so the US. The decline among American Indian and Alaskan Native people is particularly striking: their life expectancy fell from 71.8 years in 2019 to 65.2 in 2021, close to the national average during the Second World War.

 

“To experience any stalling or reduction in life expectancy is tragic,” said Ryan Masters, one of the authors of the latest data; but to see reductions of three, four, five, or six years is “mind-boggling and heartbreaking”.

 

The reductions are mainly down to Covid, said Dave A. Chokshi in The New York Times. But they also reflect other factors, including the opioid epidemic, gun violence and high rates of chronic disease. “America is at a fork in the road with respect to the health of the nation.”

 

It can seek to put Covid behind it and just continue on the same trajectory, as it did after the 1918 flu epidemic. Or it can embrace radical health reform, in the spirit of the “great sanitary awakening” that ended outbreaks of typhus, dysentery and cholera in the 19th century.

 

We’ve got to do something to stop the US being “the death trap of the wealthy world”, said Derek Thompson in The Atlantic. Building more homes near urban centres would help. Long commutes and a lack of walkable areas are one reason Americans are “world leaders in the category of sitting on our butts”.

 

One pedometer analysis found that the typical American barely takes 5,000 steps a day, which is way fewer than people in other countries. That, and the ubiquity of junk food, might explain why America’s obesity rate is over eight times higher than Japan’s.

 

Increasing people’s access to affordable primary care would also help prevent many deaths. America leads the world in some healthcare categories: there’s no better place to be if you contract prostate or breast cancer. This suggests that “the US is not utterly incompetent, but rather selectively competent”, and that if it can refocus its healthcare policies in the right way, it could “improve quickly”.

Experts Say New Street Drug Is ‘as Deadly as Fentanyl’

 

FRIDAY, Sept. 16, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Nitazenes: You've probably never heard of these highly toxic drugs, and neither have many Americans who abuse opioid street drugs.

 

That lack of awareness could prove deadly, experts warn, because nitazenes are increasingly being added into heroin and street versions of opioid pills -- and triggering fatal overdoses.

 

"Laboratory test results indicate that the potency of certain nitazene analogs [e.g., isotonitazene, protonitazene, and etonitazene] greatly exceeds that of fentanyl, whereas the potency of the analog metonitazene is similar to fentanyl," explained a team of researchers from the Tennessee Department of Health.

 

Deaths linked to drugs are on the rise. In their report issued Sept. 16, Jessica Korona-Bailey and colleagues said that "four times as many nitazene-involved overdoses were identified in Tennessee in 2021 than in 2020, and this number could be underestimated because of low testing frequency."

 

Overall, deaths in Tennessee known to be linked to the synthetic opioids rose from 10 in 2020 to 42 one year later, with a majority of those killed being young males (average age 40).

 

What's worse, naloxone -- the antidote injection that can save the life of someone suffering an opioid overdose -- may not help if given in a single dose in cases involving nitazenes.

 

"Naloxone has been effective in reversing nitazene-involved overdoses, but multiple doses might be needed," the Tennessee researchers advised.

 

The growing danger of nitazene-tainted opioids in illicit drug supply isn't specific to Tennessee, of course.

 

In June, the Washington, D.C.-based branch of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency issued an alert on the same class of drugs being spotted in that area.

 

"A drug that was never approved for medical use, nitazenes are being sourced from China and being mixed into other drugs," the DEA explained in a statement.

 

One nitazene, isotonatazene (nicknamed ISO), was especially prevalent in the D.C. area.

 

"First identified around 2019 in the Midwest, this dangerous drug has moved into the Southern states and, more recently, along the Eastern seaboard," the agency explained.

 

"Much more potent than heroin and morphine [similar to fentanyl], ISO is being mixed into and marketed as other drugs to make drugs more potent and cheaper to produce. The major concern: This drug can and has caused deadly overdoses in unsuspecting victims," according to the DEA.

 

ISO is now often mixed in with street heroin, or pressed into the makeup of counterfeit opioid pills "falsely marketed as pharmaceutical medication [like Dilaudid 'M-8' tablets and oxycodone 'M30' tablets]," the DEA explained.

 

"People have to keep in mind, with all the synthetic drugs out there and the way they're being mixed together, you never know what you're actually buying," DEA Intelligence Analyst Maura Gaffney said in the statement.

 

So far, the spread of nitazenes remains relatively low, but "we want to get this info out and warn people," said Jarod Forget, Special Agent in Charge of the DEA's Washington Division.

 

"If we can educate and inform our communities about the dangers of taking counterfeit prescription pills or other drugs, we stem the proliferation of these deadly opioids, stop all of these senseless deaths, and help keep our neighbors and loved ones safe," Forget said in the statement.

 

According to the latest national data, U.S. drug overdoses hit a record high in 2021 -- more than 108,000 lives lost. Three-quarters of those deaths involved synthetic opioids such as fentanyl or nitazenes.

 

The Tennessee study was published in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, a journal of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Though Opium is a natural thing got from poppy plants they are also available as synthetic drugs or partially synthetic drugs. The group of drugs can be legal or illegal according to its use. Legally prescribed drugs are codeine, oxycodone and morphine, while heroin is illegal to use. However they are often misused, and then the whole process take a negative turn. Opiate Addiction can causepsychological addiction and physical dependence in a very short time.

Author Sam Quinones, who wrote “Dreamland: The True Tale of America’s Opiate Epidemic,” told a Delaware audience Oct. 27 that an influx of prescribed opiate painkillers, Americans believing they were “entitled to a life without pain,” a flood of cheap heroin from Mexico and the breakdown of community all contributed to the nightmare of the addiction epidemic. Quinones was brought to Delaware by First Lady Carla Markell and atTAcK addiction, a grassroots group of parents and other individuals who have been impacted by the epidemic. In introducing Quinones, the First Lady said “Dreamland” was a “riveting read.”

 

Quinones points to 1996 as the year that the prescribing of oxycodone and hydrocodone “rise like a plane taking off.” But he said it was the introduction of OxyContin by Purdue Pharma in 1996 that has caused the most harm downstream. “We would not have a heroin problem today if not for Oxycontin. … Here is a story about a drug nightmare created by the private sector.”

And one overriding factor, “The antidote to heroin is not naloxone, it is community. … We spent the last 35 years in America destroying community.”

One of the most common methods of heroin use is via intravenous injection. When taken orally, heroin undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism via deacetylation, making it a prodrug for the systemic delivery of morphine.[1] When the drug is injected, however, it avoids this first-pass effect, very rapidly crossing the blood-brain barrier due to the presence of the acetyl groups, which render it much more lipid-soluble than morphine itself.[2] Once in the brain, it is deacetylated into 3- and 6-monoacetylmorphine and morphine, which bind to μ-opioid receptors resulting in intense euphoria with the feeling centered in the gut.

Frequent administration has a high potential for causing addiction and may quickly lead to tolerance. If a continual, sustained use of heroin for as little as three days is stopped abruptly, withdrawal symptoms can appear. This is much shorter than the withdrawal effects experienced from other common painkillers such as oxycodone and hydrocodone.[3][4]

Internationally, heroin is controlled under Schedules I and IV of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs.[5] It is illegal to manufacture, possess, or sell heroin in the United States and the UK. However, under the name diamorphine, heroin is a legal prescription drug in the United Kingdom. Popular street names for heroin include black tar, smack, junk, skag, horse, brain, chaw, chiva, and others. These are specific references to heroin and not used to describe any other drug. Dope could be used to refer to heroin, but may also indicate other drugs, from laudanum a century ago to nearly any contemporary recreational drug.Hell dog www.eschlerart.com

I tried to smile, but my face was too numb, stiff, and swollen.

 

They had to do a lot of work around a nerve, and there's very little feeling in the right side of my cheek/nose/lip. It's gradually coming back. They also stripped out the lining of the sinus cavity, which disturbed the nerve on top of the teeth.

 

Because of the irritated nerves, there's a lot of swelling and a toothache that stretches from my jaw to my eye socket. Tylenol / acetaminophen / paracetamol and even Percocet / oxycodone hardly put a dent in it. (I am not stoned in this picture. It's the swelling, I swear!) My right eye isn't focusing accurately.

 

Fortunately, Ibuprofin / Advil / Motrin does wonders, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties. The only problem is, Ibuprofin thins the blood, so you shouldn't take it after surgery. It's even worse with caffeine, which opens the blood vessels. I had to tough it out until the bleeding was low enough. Also, if you are like me, you have to take Ibuprofin with food/milk or it will upset your stomach (and the antibiotics are already doing that).
