1 week post OP, considering smoking Marijuana to ease pain and sleep.



Recommended Posts

Never smoked anything and I never will but how come when I used to work in a comunity mental health ctr majority of the people said their pshycosis was started off by smoking weed? Weed this days and age is not what bob marley used to smoke. Get out, walk, take some fresh air don't rely on drugs. They are adictive no matter what people say.

Weed is good. Just watch out for the munchies.

I do not have an addictive personality or addictive tendencys. food addiction did not get me to this point in life. That being said i don't think there is anything wrong with smoking weed. I do on occasion i don't get munchies or anything. I just sleep alot better. I would say be careful if your still having any pain because the coughing hurts!

I am reading more and more about cbd 's. Which are tinctures made with out the thc from marijuana.

These are some of the newer oils made and seem to work well for those with epilepsy ... These are the ones I have read about for use even on children that are having 20+seizures in short time frames and cannot live any sort of normal life. They do not give a negligible high.

Research is the key that is often overlooked due to the stigma of regular

Marijuana. IMHO

I wonder if anyone will post about tincture use and sleep .

I would be very interested since sleep eludes me often.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
