Bad idea???

[4.2O]

so i have been pretty ill for the last couple days but that has not stopped me from blazing.

i was thinking. if i keep smoking out of my same bowl everyday will this make it harder for me to get healthy again? will i keep giving myself my "sick germs"?

should i roll a joint (which im not really in the mood to do) or am i over thinking it?

just wash your bowl before using it. Then it should do no harm to you

get well soon, colds suck ass

I wouldn't worry about it, but if it really bothers you, use a lighter to heat the mouthpiece of your bowl (I assume it's glass). The high temperature should sanitize it nicely.

EDIT: And of course, let it cool down before use.

No it won't hurt one way or another. Your body is building immunity to that particular illness and you won't get more sick from being exposed to it.

Haha, I'm glad you asked this. I've wondered it from previous times being sick. I'm also a little ill now, and used my bong last night. I was thinking of just wiping off the mouth piece at top of chamber, but I guess lighting it would be easier and quicker.

Thats not how sickness works, you will be fine.

Weed slows down you immune system. I wish i had a link to this site i read all this from. I smoke when im sick, but i have relised that when i smoke when im sick, the sickness lasts longer then if i wasnt smoking. Just and Idea....didnt stop me from smoking.

HOWEVER... its not stopping me either man.

it doesnt matter if you lick every bit of the 'sick germs' on the bong. your immune system recognises the pathogen and produces antibodies to fight off the infection so next time you come in contact with that particular bug, your body will recognise it and produce that same type of antibody in larger numbers, making you immune.
