Lucozade. And cherry coke. He just got 4 2l bottles of cherry coke half price. A quid each.
And a couple of beers. He got two bottles with his shop for chilli ingredients (gods damn....he spent the best part of 50 quid on stuff for two pizzas, and his gordon ramsey-esque uber-chilli.
He got two beers, one big bottle of 'cobra' brand beer, and one 'asahi black lager', a chinese imported beer', he intended both to go with his chilli, but he can buy another as he got paid today. He's drinking the black lager, never had it before, its really nice.
Thats to go with his breakfast: dairylea cream cheese on crackers and on bread, with pickled black olives on top, and a quality vanilla bean icecream. And to top it off, a couple of smokes, with 10mg of nicotine base administered transdermally.
Since his recent change the last few days he has had a ravenous appetite, he switched from tizanidine (zanaflex) to clonidine (catapress); both alpha2 adrenoreceptor agonists, although clonidine is fucking potent in comparison. He had a really low appetite before, and had to fight to maintain a 9 stone 9lb weight, like, truly struggle to eat 1 meal and just graze lightly through the day on snacks, trying to make his meal and snacks high calorie and nutritious, trying for high protein and moderate fat, as well as snacking on fresh fruit, and drinking as much fruit juice as he could fit in amongst his favourite coke/cherry coke/beer and vodka xD
But since the switch to clonidine, he has been able to get at least 3 hours sleep a night, every night rather than going days without sleep at a time. The mix of oxycontin 40s and 250mcg clonidine 3xdaily knocks him out cold, or if he splits his clonidine doses in half, cutting the tablets down to 0.125mg each, then he gets to nod out with a big grin on his face. Even with his many years of tolerance accumulation to oxy, codeine, dihydrocodeine and hydrochloride of morphia he doesn't even have to crush them up, bite them, or prep for intravenous injection and shoot up (although shooting 'em up is still a treat, or plug them (dissolve in water, shoot up the arse with a needle-less syringe) its as if he is, whilst unavoidably physically dependent on opioids, as if he is opioid naive all over again, 40mg of oxy fucking wastes him when taken with clonidine. And with the muscle relaxant he is taking from his old rx, and his abusive, manipulative, habitual liar and psychotic klepto malicious devil-whore former housemate also had a rx for the same (10mg baclofen pills, a GABAb agonist); I'm using it to help relieve the cramping in the muscles of his bad leg. It potentiates the response to opioids too. As does the alpha2delta voltage-gated calcium channel agonist pregabalin that he takes for the neuropathy in his bad leg.
He is feckin' well toasted already and he hasn't even taken his morning dose of clonidine. Or the early morning syringe of M-ket he fancies for the banging headache those myoclonic seizures and getting his face sliced to bits left him with.
Mmmmm
