Tried smoking again: More Problems....

[mseerob]

Hey guys whats up...

I decided to try smoking weed again too see if I am really allergic to it or if it could be something else. Now today Im experiencing the following....

Throat tightness still
Difficulty focusing, having to blink to much
Headache (like something is pounding my head) new
feeling warm in my chest: new

Is this normal? Will it wear off or do I have to goto a doctor to get a check up.

How long till the THC wears off the system?

It isn't normal to feel unconfortable in any way smoking MJ.

Now, one of my buddies has the eye problem like you. Your eyes dry out right? His does. That is normal in some cases. Use some Visine or Clear Eyes after you smoke up to keep those eyes moist. That should take care of it.

A headache too is normal. Was it bad weed you smoked? Like, low quality? I know if I some low quality smoke, or some even pumped full of chemicals, or even if I smoke too much...I get a headache.

Feeling warm, that's a good thing! You should feel warm after you smoke up.

Now the throat tightness. Are you perhaps just thirsty? My mouth gets so dried out sometimes making it difficult to swallow.

If these effects are worrying you, maybe you should consider vaporizing your herb, or quitting altogether. It doesn't sound like you're having a pleasent experience smoking up, so why continue. Good luck.

Nochowder gave really good advice. ^.^ I second his recommendation for vaporizing. There are alot of decent guides out there for making lightbulb vapes etc. cheaply and easily.

Now Im feeling this...

1. Hard to keep focus
2. Stomach feels sick (also it feels like my chest is a bit tight)
3. Had this bad headache in both sides of my head
4. My body feels drained out (from head to toe)
5. My body also feels numb (from head to toe)
6. A bit shaky
7. A lil difficult to breathe
8. When I eat something, my body doesnt want to accept it.

OMG Is this normal, will this wear off. It's monday morning and I've been experiencing this since saturday afternoon. Im seeing a doctor tomorrow.

It is possible to be allergic to marijuana - and nearly any other substance, as well. Though rare, the symptoms are in line with what you are experiencing. It is best to be honest with your doctor and tell him what you believe is causing the symptoms. Since yours appears to be a mild case (many allergic people can't even be NEAR the stuff, let alone smoke it without going to the hospital), it's likely that there are treatment options which will allow to you at least enjoy smoking once in a while.

Here is a nice Cannabis Culture article about marijuana allergy and what can be done about it.

If you aren't allergic to THC, but to other substances in grass, you could try using very refined preparations that contain only cannabinoids. These include well-rinsed water hash, water-washed kief or ether-refined THC oil. While not totally free of the allergens, these preparations contain very small amounts of plant matter. You may also be able to vaporize marijuana, since this turns the cannabinoids into a vapor for inhalation without combusting the plant material. It is more pure than smoking. Many vaporizers are available on the market.

To test for an allergy yourself, you can try rubbing a piece of fresh bud on a small area of skin on your arm and see if a rash develops. If it does, there's a good chance this is the case.

Hey guys whats up.... here's an update..

I went to the hopsital and got a blood test done plus when I was there my heart was beating like freaking crazy. My entire body (from head to toe) felt all drained out and felt numb. And I couldnt breathe to well.

In the hospital I was then given this tiny pill that desolved on your tongue and it will calm your systems down.
I was then given these anxiety pills. I feel better like my breathing problem disappeared, my heart is beating in a normal rate and my long lasting throat tightness was gone but here's a new problem that Om having...

Its my head...

It feels like I can't keep focus of myself. Like my eyes are having a bit of a difficult time keeping focus. Im always having to blink to much, and it feels like a bit of a headache.. Last night it was a terrible headache, in both sides of my head, in the tempo and all over my head.

Now I dont want to some stupid when I ask this. Having a fatigue means like your body feels all drained out and tired. If thats what it means then Im experiencing a bit of that as well. And one last thing Im experiencing, my stomach feels a tiny bit sick, like my body doesnt want to accept any food that comes in.. Other than that I will be ok..

Will these symptoms wear off?? Are these symptoms normal? And how long does the THC flush out from your systems and I mean all the THC completedly out from your whole systems??

[moeburn]

mseerob, to answer your question about how long the THC lasts. The biggest effects are usually 30min-1hr. Most of the effects are gone after about 4-6 hours. For many people, including myself, your body still feels a little tiny bit of it for the next day or two. Its like a "hey I did weed yesterday didnt I" feeling, but physically not mentally.
