Reckon its the early stages of man flu. Im going through it now although not as bad as before. Always get it this time of year.

[aaronjb]

I was out djing last night at a fancy dress party attended by 140 18 year olds and all was fine untill it got shut down by the police due to a riot outside.

I packed up my stuff and came home not feeling too great and went to bed.

I woke up at 5am this morning violently shaking freezing cold even tho i had 2 duvets a house coat my wife cuddling into me and the heating on. I honestly though i was dieing  after about an hour of this i got back to sleep  and woke up at 8am (middle of the night to me) and feel like ive just been on an all night bender even though i was working and wasnt drinking.

Could have i been spiked?

can i have a ticket for your next gig?

Careful.. he didn't say they were girls!

[doog]

but i am fine now
a pint of water later and i am sound as a pound
No cold or flu symptomes at all

the fight between viruses and your body is not 1 round match, so get ready

Cem you are correct again

 After that event with the shaking i felt better the next day so shrugged it off and got on with my day.
The next day i was flat on my back with a horrible fever  so well done to Cem et al for being right.

 feeling very lathargic  and that my batteries are flat  but ive never had a violent shaking experiance like that

not a nice thing

had the same thing in Greece my wife got it for the first half of the holiday and me for the second.....great holiday!

has anyone genuinely heard of someone whos ever had a drink spiked? not hearsay or urban myth but actual medical evidence? i dont think its ever happened - I'll wait to be proved wrong if anyone knows different.

I think its up there with mobile phones causing petrol stations to explode and sheep "loving" - piffle - never happens

Yes my sister and her friend had their drinks spiked, it was not a pleasant thing to happen trust me

there was more to it than just spiking the drink and feeling rough.....

bad holiday.. actually those countries where tourists travel have different viral species .. and people living in those areas have their body defense systems mostly arranged for those kinds.. so it may be a good practice before visiting abroad having some preventive injections.. (some weeks ago)

not wishing to diminish your sister and her friends bad experience Plomien, I'm just genuinely curious as to the extent of the problem - any OOFers with police experience or medical staff who can tell me I don't know what I'm talking about then fair enough - I suspect that people think they've been victims, when in reality its the alcohol?

btw police were involved and alcohol was not an issue as they had not long been out, but left their drinks unattended

I know that its a perceived problem Plom, I don't know any police or NHS staff that have ever actually come across a genuine case

I've had a drink spiked....  the result being a particularly unpleasant trip, literally, and hospital tests ( i was out with the wife , and started hallucinating.... she called an ambulance rather than have me trying to drive home , nuff said) revealed LSD in the system  , something which i have NEVER indulged in willingly... 

this was in 91


i know several other friends have had spiked drink  experiences, one of which was a rohypnol date rape

she's still traumatised, 10 years later. and still wont go in to a pub....



there was also an experience in the 80's of "squidgy black" being "beefed up" with a little opiate...   

someone thought it would be funny to pass round a bong stoked with this....

it was a seriously bad idea....    at least half the people present have never touched another spliff... or cookie, or anything....   

okay so maybe the results may or may not have been bad long term, but NO-one enjoyed it....

Fair do's Max - sorry to hear of that and other cases - I wasn't trying to be contentious or controversial - just curious

apologies to anyone who's had similar experiences
