Possibly you are having a reaction to the abundance of material that is brought into the resulting oil using Isopropyl. I would suggest using a bit finer of a solvent, such as Naphtha to get a much more refined oil with much less inert plant content. Always use proper precautions when working with these materials, and make sure that you continue heating them until all evaporation ends to make sure that all the solvent has been released. I really doubt this is the cause of your headache. Possibly you tensed up out of nervousness, not knowing what the effect of RSO might be? It is anyone's guess, but rest assured... there has never been even one case of anyone dying due to cannabis use... ever. Relax, and let it heal you.

yeah if I just smoked it... but I put poison and chemicals onto it.... thats why I'm scared....


I worried that I didn't evaporate all the alcohol. (what if I didn't?)
I'm worried that I used 91% vs 99%
I worried that I got a headache from a 1/2 size of rice dose.
I'm worried that the weed I had to make this was laced. (wouldn't the evaporation get ride of any spayed toxins?)
I worried I'm poisoning myself. I want to get better not die. Is there a way to test the oil?
Any place that just sells it? in the US? I do anything to get this right and my ear better. I'm losing hope
