Smoking when you're sick (merged)

yeah one of the "marijuana facts" that the gov't gave was that it hinders the immune system...but i've been reading recently that it actually boosts it...anyone have a link regarding this?
 
if i smoke while im sick, i stay sick longer, but the severity of the sickness seems to be much milder

edit: ^at least its milder when im not high

I don't know if marijuana weakens the immune system, but smoking definetely does (or I get sick a lot more). You can argue all you want, but the fact is, smoking is unhealthy. If you have the money (and time/place), definetely cook some marijuana brownies/muffins/cookies. Marijuana is terrific when you're ill (at least for me), but smoking pretty much negates all the positive effects you get from it.

If possible, eat it (it will help). If not, don't smoke and go without (and get some other meds).
 
Dont spread it!

I think it probably has small negative affect but its not that bad.. anyways.. tell people you smoke with that your sick if your sharin a pipe tho ive gotten so many diseases because of people that dont care... mostly the flu and that sux.. last time i had the flu hardcore and ever since then my mom thinks im making meth (cause i got tons of medication for shit)... this has spread to the grocery store.. whenever ib uy somethin they ask if im gonna make meth with it with a serious face.. so me a person who hates dirty now has a reputation as someone who makes meth.. Thanks!!
 
^^ Because you made the choice to smoke with a sick friend, it's kinda your own fault.. ;)
 
mabye the weed isn't the thing that makes youmore sick. it might just be the smoke. people react to smoke differantly and some people might get more sick because the smoke is fucking up there already sick lungs
 
Dude I've been soooo sick lately (really bad cough and headache). I just smoked and I feel soooo much better, like I feel normal physically and fucked up mentally, its really working out nice!
 
like loki said, i think mabye taking excess amounts of cold medicine is why were getting so fucked up when were sick and high
 
i have strep throat (symptoms started 3 days ago w/ bad sore throat, chills, mild fever) and have been smoking only to find it makes things 10000x worse for me...my symptoms have only been getting worse, especially my throat. Time to push off the bizzud for a while
 
Why not Vaporize?
Seems like a better solution if you're ill.

I've got a infected throat at the moment. Vaporizing/Eating to me seems to be the only way to go if you want the effects of cannabis without the harmful smoke.
 
Laziness over health. Hmm.. What's bluelight for again?

Vaporizing did wonders for me yesterday when I was at my sickest; took away all the aches and pains without the nastiness smoking usually leaves me with.
 
smoking with strep?

Is it ok to smoke weed when you have strep throat? I only have to take this medication for 3 days so it'll be done on thursday. Any info on this if pot will cause it to come back again because I definatly want to fully heal myself but I just passed my drug test for a job so I can finally puff again so please let me know whats up.
 
Well that really didn't tell me what I wanted to know but thanks anyways. Anyone else??
