What's happening for some reason is one of the marijuana compounds messes with your hypothalamus. Its your brains themostat. While smoking being sick losing jobs and friends i noticed my temp was always low 97.1. The effects of a bad thermostat in the body have all the same side effects as this condition. Five days no bud and I'm running 98.1 to 99.1 and feeling better. Oh the fake shit spice gets at those same receptors and is realy not safe. I am so happy to have hope that i wont go through that hell again. I rather kick heroin. Yes its that bad. And Dr's no help. Talk to a pharmacist..

I used opiates heavily for years and stopped for obvious reasons, very painfully, about 6 months ago. So nearly 10 years later I start smoking pot again and In the last 4 months, by myself, I've smoked over 1/4 of a pound of some of the highest the content marijuana in all existence. I ran out a couple of days ago and suddenly became more ill than I have ever felt in my entire life. Couldn't eat for 3 days not a single bite. Puked every glass of water or any beverage I tried within a couple of hours. Can't speculate on a bath as I was truly too ill to leave bed so showering just wasn't going to happen. I'm still not feeling well as I write this but I did eat some soup and haven't thrown up yet. My advise is to not smoke all day every day for any reason. If you must smoke every day for some reason, keep it to a pipe every few hours don't just burn them down one after another especially if you have extreme high grade or pure shatter oil.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-142743152971096915.post-58791937632432445142016-07-02T18:48:30.906-05:002016-07-02T18:48:30.906-05:00For those who dont believe this, its because of th...For those who dont believe this, its because of the way you guys smoke and how much you eat and exercise. I was smoking everyday for years, but i was consistently exercising or playing football so its impossible to feel any effects because the thc exists the system the more you sweat. Once i stopped playing sports and even sometimes smoked less than i used too i started getting nauseous in the mornings and couldn't eat for hours unless i smoked. My friends who are heavier smokers than also had the effects but much worse to the point where they went to a doctor.<br /><br />The thing is we were smoking bongs thoughout the years whereas most older generation smokers who claim to be smoking for years smoke joints and where smoking a much softer grade of dope back then. Ive found that by exercising daily and drinking a shit ton of water (atleast 4L) a day will help within days. Ive never had it to the point where ive been puking for hours, but the nausea and weight loss is for real.

Im 21 almost 22 and have smoked since I was 10. I have anxiety and smoking always helped but when I started heavily smoking at age 16, I was in my friends apartment and I got dizzy and ran outside vomiting everywhere. After that I slowed down and at age 20 quit and started taking prescribed anxiety medication but still struggled with my anxiety, I didnt start smoking until recently and a few weeks ago I was feeling nautious when I woke up, since then Ive slowed down and havent felt nautious. I think that its a very real condition but if you choose to smoke weed whether it be recreationally or for medical reasons just do it in moderation.

He's had CT scans, motility studies, ultrasounds etc., even had his gallbladder removed and surgery for sphincter of oddi dysfunction. But his symptoms still remain. He has been a chronic marijuana user for ~15 years. He is in denial that it's the marijuana because he doesn't understand why the syndrome would take so long to develop. His symptoms are classic: severe stomach pain and nausea and constant retching and vomiting and a compulsive need for hot baths, in a cyclic pattern. I'm not against marijuana, in fact it's helpful to many people, but you can't deny that in some people there is a very rare occurrence of toxicity and intolerance with chronic use. Look up all the case reports on PubMed! Medical literature people! I am a pharmacist and my mother a nurse and neither of us can convince my brother that CHS is the problem. I have an extensive knowledge of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and never learned about this syndrome while obtaining my doctorate, that's how rare it is.

This is very real!! I was just released from the hospital for a 3 day puking binge which they are saying is caused by excessive marijuana smoking. I have been smoking for 17 yrs and for the last 5-6 yrs have smoked 4 joints a day pretty much. I never in my wildest dreams would have thought weed would be the reason for me puking for the last 6 yrs with no answer!!! I have been hospitalized more times than I can count!! The puking for me comes out of nowhere, but usually when I haven't had much sleep. It always gets so violent and painful puking every 10 min to the point where I can't talk, or lie down, or even think! I've had hundreds of tests ran from MRIs to cat scans, GI scans, blood work, my gull bladder removed, pancreas tests, so many I can't remember and they all show nothing!!!!! Its so crazy! I have felt like a crazy woman for so long, and now even with a most likely answer I don't want to stop smoking. I love weed...more than most and I had thought smoking would make me feel better but obviously that's not the case! I am glad I might have an answer even if its not the one I want.

Has went to emergency room 5 times in that period with severe vomiting and dehydration. Each time gets IVs and her potassium levels are low. Has no appetite, can't keep anything on her stomach sometimes, not even water. Is going days or a week or more at a time not being able to eat anything. She is a chronic pot smoker for 10 years, and will steady smoke non stop for hours on end. Also chronic bath taker. Sometimes gets in tub 4 or 5 times in a day and stays in for hours. She will get some better for a month or two, then the sickness starts again. Has lost tons of weight. First time hospital said it was stomach flu or virus, then urinary track infection.
