Don't know if this helps, but...

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the major active component of cannabis, or marijuana. Receptors to THC have been found on B cells, natural killer cells, neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes and macrophages (Life Sci 1999; 65:637-644). Marijuana has measurable in vitro effects on the immune system, particularly in reducing cell-mediated immunity, which might increase susceptibility to infection. Clinical studies in humans so far, though, haven't demonstrated that these effects are clinically relevant (J Allergy Clin Immunol 1976;58:483-490). Chronic smoking of marijuana, however, can raise one's susceptibility to respiratory infection and cancer (Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 1999;8:1071-1078). If the marijuana is contaminated with mould spores, which is common, smoking it may lead to allergic asthma, infection or hypersensitivity pneumonitis (J Allergy Clin Immunol 1983;71:389-393)

i've been smoking like nearly 8 years now, and i hardly ever get sick, 2times a year at most, including common colds (which is usually what i'm sick from) so i think it's just you... if anything, i'd say weed has greatly boosted my immune system.... not to mention, i stay away from as much man-made medicine as possible... i'd rather tough out the sickness, and build my immune system, then be a pansy, get a cough and take medicine....

I had dieorea this morning, and i smoked a shit load of weed the night before. But it was proberly all the chilli i ate all day last night that did it. lol. I have also found that i can sometime's get alot of weird colds next day after toking, and if im really stoned when i go to sleep when i wake up in mornin my eyes are practicly GLUED shut haha.

Wen ive had a heavey night on the weed, and then smoking in bed , i wake with a bad head ache...but a glass of water and a big fry up always sorts me out!

I dunno about my clarestorol level tho

oh well that's diffrent, you might as well get used to that now.... if you smoke alot, you're going to get really congested with phlem and shit.... and if you smoke enough and long enough, eventually the phlem starts coming up blackened (looks really disgusting) the only thing i've noticed that gets rid of it is taking breaks from weed, or spacing it out more. i'm sure if you used a vape/cooked the weed it'd eliminate this problem as well.... otherwise you're just stuck with it.... like me..

yea i agree with slipknotpshycho.
but i do get a cold symptomns sometimes(like now) the day after smoking or whatever
