Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Heroin is a drug that many abuse.When it enters the brain, heroin is converted into morphine, which binds to molecules on cells known as opioid receptors.Opioid receptors are also located in the brain stem, which controls automatic processes critical for life, such as blood pressure, arousal, respiration and also sweating.
The symptoms you describe could be effects of this drug.Addiction to this drug is very common.I will suggest you avoid if you just started using or if you have been taking it for long, you see the Doctor for counselling/possible weaning.
Hope this will help
Best regards
