Man, hearing stories like this take me back to summer 2006 where I almost died and ended up in the hospital for a week. Zombi3, seriously I hope you get better man. I hope by sharing my story I'm not overstepping my bounds here. Not trying to derail the thread or anything. I know just there other people out there that can relate and have gone through similar traumatic experiences.
I was doing mushrooms summer of 2006 all the time and one night ended up on the wrong trail. We tripped that day but got turned around in rough terrain. Took us hours longer than we expected to get back to the car but we finally made it. But by the time we got to the car it was late and nothing was open to eat. We had little food on the trail and I was completely exhausted.
We finally found a place that was open and we go in and order our food. Right after I ordered I got light headed and just fainted. I fell backwards and hit my head on a ceramic tile floor. Long story short, my head was so fucked up I couldn't even remember what happened. I was 19 at the time and lived at home so I forgot what happened and told my mom I had the flu. I went 60 hours without food or water, completely unconscious most of the time. Finally people started to notice I didn't have the flu and took me to the ER. My friends I was with didn't take me to the ER because I had told them not to. I had a pocket full of schedule 1 drugs and didn't realize the severity in the situation.
Once I finally did make it to the ER, I was diagnosed with a triple skull fracture and meningitis in the spinal fluid. I literally had spinal fluid dripping out my nose like a running faucet for weeks. One of the fractures ruptured my inner ear and filled it with blood. Since I didn't go to the hospital immediately, the blood was never drained and basically "drowned" the nerves in my inner ear. I spent over 6 days in critical care. Social workers came in and out kept asking me how I fractured my skull. They didn't believe me that I had just fallen. I couldn't tell the difference between reality and my dreams at one point. At many points I completely left my body and the only thing that would bring me back is the blood samples they drew every 2 hours. The doctors had no idea how I survived as long as I did. A few years later a girl I went to school with had a similar head injury that was technically less severe and she died in recovery.
I am deaf in that ear now, and have no working inner ear function on that side. I get vertigo, nausea, headaches, and a multitude of other side effects from this. Cannabis has been the only drug that actually takes away my nausea and vertigo. All the drugs the doctors gave me made it worse.
This event single handed changed my life more than any other event. I literally am a totally different person, for the better. Hopefully, one day Zombi3 will be able to look back at this and take some sort of deeper meaning from it. I know I did and it helped me tremendously. I still take psychedelics, but I give them the utmost respect. I get more out of low doses now than most people get out of epic doses, and I believe it's because my consciousness was permanently altered as a result.
Positive vibes and thoughts your way man. And for real, I pray god you don't loose your feet. You still have your life and mind though, which is the most important thing.

If you notice my registration date for this site, it coincides with this event. A few months after the accident I was incredibly bored all the time. I couldn't work for 15 months after the accident and basically had to lay in an upright position 24/7. The Shroomery got me through some dark times. When all my friends got tired of coming to pick me up and cater to my disability, I turned to the internet for help and friendship. This place and the people that regular post here will always have a special place in my heart, even though I don't post regularly that much these days.

You guys think it could have anything to do with the mixture of the compounds? Seems like a lot more variables at play when you mix research chemicals together. Perhaps there was even more severe vasoconstriction as a result of mixing the compounds.

You didn't take an extraordinary dose of research chemicals that could have effects including but not limited to amputation of your feet, status epilepticus or death.
Yes, there are a few recorded deaths from DOC.

I can't help but wonder if he'd still have his feet if he'd had just changed his name to Zombi 2 like I've been suggesting all along.

Zombi3 is gonna be in the hospital for another week just to be under watch, the original 50/50 chance of having his foot/feet removed is now down to a 5% chance. Things have greatly improved with the help of a minor non-amputative surgary.
I'm at a music festival in Georgia, partying with a few shroomery dudes and everybody else at the fest of course. Look for videos or recordings of Widespread Panic's, Galactic's, and Emancipator's sets (among others) at Counterpoint festival online in the near future. Killer stuff 
i'll be off now, have a great weekend ya'll
