My decision has been made, next week my CTB will take place using the SN method.
I don't know the exact day yet, it will be decided on the morning of the day.
I am disabled, which means that my physical situation also plays a role in this decision, but much more the circumstances of my life, which I don't want to go into in detail.
I have read a lot here over the last few days/weeks and SN is the right choice for me.
Also because I have everything I need for it.
SN from good 3 different sources, with purities of 99.6%, 99% and 98% so that should all fit.
For some, it did not work with SN. This can have many causes, bad SN or they did not stick to the plan.
Often they were found too early or panicked and called for help.
What I also suspect is that it didn't work for some because they may have had to take some medication that had a negative effect on the SN method.
I don't have to take any medication so I can rule out this risk.
I will of course follow the PPH instructions.
I have one request, if anyone discovers a mistake in my plan or if I have misunderstood something, please let me know.
The biggest risk with the SN method (apart from bad SN) is the risk of vomiting.
However, since I want to use the Stat.Dose, I have made a change to the intake of antimetics, I start taking it in the morning that day.
I take domperidone, I have metoclopramide but its expired 1 year ago.
So I take domperidone and I prefer it because I am afraid of the side effects of metoclopramide if you take it all day long.
I would also have ondandenstron and at first I thought I would also take 8mg odansentrone with the last dose but it doesn't appear in the PPH either so I don't know if it would have a positive effect.
This is my Plan, Central European Time (CET)
I am grateful for any criticism, tips and hints.

This is my Plan, Central European Time (CET)
- 07:00 - 07:30 CET: Only a small breakfast.
- 08:00 CET: 10 mg Domperidon.
- 12:00 CET: at lunchtime, we eat together as if I have to eat something so that it doesn't attract attention.
- 14:00 CET: 10 mg Domperidon.
- 20:00 CET: 10 mg Domperidon, and stop drinking Water
- 21:00 CET: 10mg Diazepam / 500mg Paracetamol (no idea if I should take just one, both or nothing at all. But I think I will need diazepam to calm me down).
- 21:15 CET: 20 mg Domperidon.
- 22:00 CET: 25g SN drink.
The first cup will be the SN with 99.6%, then there will be 2 more, one with 99% and one with 98%.
In this way, I also want to minimize the risk of an SN not being as good as I thought.
- 22:10 CET: 20x10mg crushed Diazepam drinking in Water
Unfortunately, there is no indication of when to drink the benzos, right after the SN or wait and see if you vomit.
You don't want to fall asleep too quickly so that you can drink a second glass of SN if you vomit.
I hope that when I am found at 06:00 CET, CTB has worked.
Here are a few more things I'm not sure about.
I currently weigh less than 50kg so could the 25g be too much?
Unfortunately there is no current table.
It appears that propranolol is also recommended in the new PPH 2024. I have ordered it but don't know if it will arrive in time.
Should I then take the 2g propranolol together with SN?
I also have 5g of phenobarbital, should I mix it with the benzos?
I also have Odansentron as an antimetic but I think I have read that it should not be taken with the SN method as it does not work there, is that correct?
I am grateful for any criticism, tips and hints.
