throat hurts and ive had cancer

[killa1058]

Ive been smoking for about 5-6 months now but have been heavily smoking for about a month and a half. Ive been smoking probably 2 blunts a day on average but between 2-3 people. At times ive smoked 5-6 blunts a day about once or twice a week . within the past couple of days my throat is hurting me a decent amount and i cannot get past the second or third blunt at times. Even when smoking the 1st i get a hint of pain. My throat feels like its closing in a little and has pain along side with it. It hurts from the back part of my palate inside my mouth(kinda near uvula), down to the bottom of my throat. I also get a very slight dull pain near my lymph nodes. When I was 15 i was diagnosed with testicular cancer, but at a very early stage of the cancer. I received chemotherapy for a full year and have been fully recovered for about 5yrs now. Im curious to know what exactly this pain is and if my past medical history would make me more prone to lung cancer since i smoke blunts and not bowls, bongs, etc.

With your history sweetie, I would not take a chance. You must go see the Dr.!

It could be 6 and 1 and half a dozen things! Your fear must be settled first and that means a Dr. visit. Sorry, to drop bad news on top of previous bad health!

I can think of so many things, but you must get it checked, asap! pr :hippy:

And remember smoking isn't the only way to get the benifits of MMJ.

I'm gonna stop for now, because although i still have a some pain it has been getting a little better very very slowly. I'm thinking it might just be a cold or sinus infection, hopefully after a week or two of no smoking it'll go away. But, if there are still clears signs of it after I'll definitely go and get it checked out. Thanks for the advice:thumbsup:

Edible MMJ will halp with any inflamation.

Plus, the edibles are really good!!! I had some recently! Even better than vape! Unless, you are going for the extremely high feeling and in that case, you need to start baking!! Good luck to you. I hope all is well. And it pass's! Just figure, you need to be careful with your history!

Cancer is a difficult and sad disease. It can and has been cured for many. But, the fear is hard to cure! You will remain in my prayers! PR :thumbsup:

Yea man blunts are harsh. I used to smoke blunts like that but I stopped cuz they do fuck your throat up. Now I only average about 4 blunts per week. Switch to water pipes or a Vape.

If these symptoms persist you should contact your oncologist.

You just have to be careful because we are at higher risk for redeveloping different types of cancer than non-cancerous folks. At least you are aware, fear is good because a slight pain might have huge impact down the road. You never know.
