Because of the heavy traffic, I took a quick look at the ignored content. Smilla (not likely that you'll read this since I'm now on your ignore list),
'Am sorry, but this is blatant and sloppy misinformation, unless you have medical citations to back up your claim because this stands in direct contradiction to the assisted dying guides advice, which was actually italicized for emphasis-"if one is an alcoholic, a heavy benzo user, or takes antipsychotics N should not be used unless one case cease using those substances for 4/6 weeks."
I'm not trying to be difficult but I'd like to know how you came to the conclusion that it's merely a matter of a couple hours difference vs risking a prolonged coma.
Higher dosing of drugs does not always override tolerance-this is counterintuitive to the layperson but well known to medical experts.
Saying it WILL work is dangerous; it MAY work but the assisted dying guides are cautious enough to warn aggressively that failure is a very real possibility.'
I know Dignitas wants everyone to taper off prior to taking the N. They also have zero recorded failures. I did not see it in the PPEH October.
I just looked in a few digital copies of suicide books I have. I did not see any mention of sedatives other than alcohol.
'Higher dosing of drugs does not always override tolerance-this is counterintuitive to the layperson but well known to medical experts.' I'm aware of this, but plenty of people 'assured' me it would not matter.
It's a good point. The inert gas method has a learning curve, and N was not my first choice. I have been unable to obtain sodium azide in Europe. There are a number of practical issues about various methods.
Really surviving N at 13 gr would be really bad. I do not recall of any cases of people surviving N. Well, maybe 1 or 2 tops.
Well, if anyone has constructive comments ?
