Recently Diagnosed with Diabetes

Ok, so about two weeks ago I was diagnosed with diabetes.
Now i'm curious, is it still safe to smoke pot?
Ive been to afraid to try.

from my knowledge i think the only thing you should have to worry about is the munchies and getting your blood sugar too high

Cannabinoids have been shown to decrease incidences of diabetes in mice, as well as provide pain relief for neuropathic pain associated with the disease. There is also evidence that cannabinoids protect against diabetic retinopathy.

I know a girl, she has type 2 and she smokes weed like crrrrazy! all the time.

She shouldn't drink though, she does, but it's just one of those... you shouldn't things.

Weak LSD sugar cubes would be a son of a bitch though.

Cannabis use is not contraindicated by diabetes types 1 or 2. Just have some carb-free munchies on hand.

 

[Olyn]

Just as safe as always.
Have fun

My friend does it and used to smoke lots dont know if its bad for you but he was allways fine.

STAY AWAY FROM ASPARTAME & SPLENDA! These potentially complicates & makes it worse.

Ask a doctor about taking methyl b12 sublingually or by injection. Also, take benfotiamine. Both are non-prescription and help prevent neuropathy.

I knew someone in high school with diabetes, I don't know which kind. He could not safely have more than one beer, but he could, and would smoke weed.

Like others have said it is safe for diabetics to consume cannabis and there is even a growing body of evidence that it can treat the side-effects of the disease. Just stay away from junk food munchies, keep it out of your house.
