Hi Folks,
Here'a a little background on me. I'm 43 yrs old, and a 10 year cancer surviser, have MS, and lower back pain. For 10 years I've been on 60mg Oxy twice a day and Percocet 5mg 4 times a day. I know these drugs are bad for my body so I've been trying weed. Now I have no ill effect from these drugs nor do I get "high" from them.

Well when I smoke weed, I only smoke a very small amount and usually only take 2 or 3 tokes. This is hours after I take my regular meds. After I smoke I'm "HIGH" for hours, like 6-8 hours. I didn't know till tonight that most people only get high for a little while.

So a question I have is do you think the weed is releasing the oxy affects when I smoke?

Also I have high blood pressure and am on meds for that, last night I took my meds at the same time, "ie. Oxy, Perc, BP med". Then we went out to dinner, after getting back home about 3 hours later I smoked my usual amount. After about 15 mins I had a major blackout and my family thought I was having a stroke. When I came out of it I took my blood pressure and it was 70/46. Also I still felt high when I woke up today.

My question is what do you think happened and how should I take my "MEDS"?

Thanks for any help,

Joe
