Allia22 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 It's kind of extreme just to smoke a particular flavor, but would one of those Epi-pens work? You pretty much take the cap off and stab yourself in the leg with this syringe for severe reactions to beestings and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShishaFred Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I feel for you. Mangos rock , a lot. But I don't think most companies would bother with using real mangos in the shisha , it's a seasonal fruit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattler Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 A epi-pen would work...but I agree that is WAY overkill just to smoke a flavor. LOL. I honestly just won't try again. It's honestly just not worth the potential trouble. I simply thought I might be able to smoke mango flavor with no problem.Yeah mangos rock enough that about once a year I take a handful of benadryl and sit down and make a meal out of just mangos...Then I happily pass out from all the benadryl. If I take the benadryl ahead of time it's not a real big problem for me...but if I wait until after the fact to do it playing catch up sucks...

Sonthert Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Yeah, epinephrine us an option, but its far easier (and doesn't go bad, even in the refrigerator) to just avoid such things as mangos and nuts. You might be able to get the Benadryl in to your system faster if your throat swells up, by crushing up a couple of pills and snorting them...I've never had to resort to that, but its in my arsenal of "plans so I don't die". I don't know that it works, it should, but anyways its something to do on the way to the emergency room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fewwdragon Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I vote rattler hookah champ of 07 Rattler I don't care what anyone says I think you are the hookah champ. Anyone willing to take the possibility of dieing immediately for a smoke is a far braver man then myself. I doubt anyone could top his stupidity... I mean bravery. In all seriousness glad your okay and try not to die by mango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for common sense...And yes it was a little bit of stupidity and bravery. I guess it was a bit of the caveman in me coming out. For the record I did email Nakhla asking if it was real or not prior to smoking it and never did recieve a answer.Eric I had never though about snorting benadryl. I have crushed it up and mixed it with a small amount of water and taken it that way to try to speed up the action. Whith the way it tasted I'm not sure stuffing it up the nose would be my idea of fun, but then again if your already dying it can't do much harm can it? LOL Down in Mexico you can buy it in a injectable solution...A couple of years ago it was about 3 dollars for a 50cc bottle(I don't remember the mg per cc or how many cc you would need) and syringes are easy to get down there to. Might be worthwhile to pick up a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you can trust your pharmacy it's not a problem down there. Some places might sell you fakes but most don't and it's not like it would be worth thier time to fake a 3 dollar bottle of benadryl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Employees are required to observe cleanliness and health regulations. I laughed when George W. said "We are investigating getting pharmaceuticals from Canada, but we have to make sure they are safe." Its a joke, a stall. The stuff is all the same, just in a different language...and medical lingo is in the same language, so it doesn't really matter. Mexican pharmaceuticals are the same as ours, just the pharmaceutical companies can't gouge HMOs there (or in Canada) so the prices are lower. I've never heard of an example of fake pharmaceuticals from Mexico unless you are buying Viagra from a roadside stand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
