I'm not sure. But i always tell em no

I wouldn't write it down anywhere, but I would mention it to the doctor if you felt it might in anyway affect what you're going in for. Like I wouldn't fess up for a broken leg, but maybe if I had a bad respiratory illness.

Theoretically you are protected by doctor/patient privilege ... but that's in theory.

my friend had some weird swollen shit on her neck, and the doctor asked her if she smoked. but that could have been just the standard rhetoric of questions and she was all paranoid.

no you won't get in trouble, as long as it is just you and your GP/doctor, everything you will say to him is very confidential, hes like a therapist to you, you should go to him more often not just about health problems, but as well as life issues.

yup. and your parent (or grandmother right?) would leave. but she ok and shit.

Worry about your parents not the police. If you are under 18 they can tell your legal guardian about anything that goes on in the appointment.

/\ i don't think they can in the UK, data protection act....

Like Freebird said, unless the weed maybe somehow contributed to or worsened your condition, what does it hurt to deny it to the very end to someone who might not ever remember your name.
