My girl's toe is dead... help

Hi everyone, this may sound dumb but im looking for some help/advice... me and my girlfriend have been out psytrance raving since saturday night and after coming home and lying in bed for a few hours she's woken up with complaints that her left big toe is completely numb and cold and dead with only occasional bursts of pins and needles and it cant seem to wake up. When she presses down on the area it turns white and stays white once pressure is released for longer than on other parts of the foot... was wondering if anyone has suffered from this before or if anyone has any suggestions what we should do as its making her worry a little. We go out to psy raves every weekend and this has never been a problem...
We've taken about a gram and a half of pure MDMA and about 2 grams of ketamine between us... obviously if the problem persists we'll be going straight to the docs but it would be nice to know if anyone has been in the same boat or whatever...
Thanks

I've never heard of that happening...but a blood clot could cause symptoms like those.
Clot = bad news

If she's having medical problems, she should be talking to a medical doctor. The Shroomery is not a doctor. Go take her to a doctor.
Did I mention she should see a doctor if this persists?

Listen to the Doctor advice, fuck.
Or just let her died like Bob Marley, it could be a cool story and you could pretend she got injured playing soccer on rum and cannabis instead of dancing at a trance party on mdma.

On that note...I have never had a body part go numb for longer than 5 minutes. At least not without it being really bad.
If she really can't feel it, I'd go to the hospital now. I wouldn't want to risk my toe...and by the time it's really "showing" it could be too late.

It's probably just nerve damage.
I've had 3 fingers go numb for like 6 months from post-surgical issues on my arm.

I doubt it...the symptoms he described of pressing on the toe and having it go white for a bit sounds to me like circulatory problems.

Vasodilator. Problem solved. Nitric oxide tablets. Warm water.
If there's a blood clot and she feels it, then she should go to the ER.
