What Does Blood From Mouth After Meth Intake Indicate?

i spit blood for a second when I was smoking meth and I taped my pipe earlier today. I think I may have inhaled a tiny bit of glue. I realize how idiotic this is, but overlooked that judgement while high. I only spit blood for a tiny bit and I stopped, and haven t since. My chest feels a bit tight and congested, it feels like I may possibly have some air in my lungs. Is this serious? I m smoking meth because I am trying to cram all my finals thats due in 2 days because I was too sick to work earlier. Is this urgent? Even if I stopped smoking before my finals? I honestly don t know if I have the faith in myself to pull all this work off before the deadline without speed. And this is a matter of my high school diploma or no high school diploma.. so I am leaning towards the idea of smoking more for my final day of work tomorrow. I understand smoking meth is always terrible for you, and realize its always an unnecessary risk, but due to the situation I m in, I m willing to put my body and mind through labor beyond its means in order for the social benefits of graduating high school. I am not smoking out of a taped pipe anymore, I have a fresh glass pipe. I m just wondering if the previous sign of blood I coughed up could put me at greatly increased risk for potentially fatal or very serious harm if I continue tomorrow?I smoked meth like 3 days ago. I realize the negative path meth sucks you towards, and I don t see myself getting sucked in. I just want to know if I m at much greater risk than normal if I smoke tomorrow?

Hi,

Yes, spitting of blood and chest discomfort suggests that you are at a risk of harming yourself if you smoke again the next day. There is a possibility that you may become ill enough to have to miss your exams. If that happens, all your efforts would be in vain. I would suggest that you sit for the exam with whatever preparation you can do without smoking anymore.

Best wishes.
