Smoker for almost 20 years on and off here.

I smoke for a variety of reasons, if people ask or my doctor, I say its mostly for medical reasons these days, and it pretty much is.

I had been smoking on the same shatter for like 8 months and was almost out. Last week I got a super painful blood clot in my right leg, and had been in a bed a few days on blood thinners and really unable to walk or stand for any period, in pretty decent pain. I finally got some new shatter, and I thought FINALLY, I can get some relief, maybe it will help me sleep and relax my muscles and all the positive stuff it usually does.

Well.....I take a couple of hits, because I'm used to taking several hits of shatter, and before I know it I'm fucking 85% maxxed out full on toasted. I was like holy shit this stuff is FIRE. So I go to lay down and like....Im just like "Ouch....ow...OWWWW.." Like, I can't take focus off my throbbing leg. Its kind of making me focus on it instead of distracting me, like magnifying the pain. Next thing you know my hearts kind of racing and I'm like "Oh fuck this shit bout to go to my lungs, I usually smoke and workout and I can't get out of this bed" next thing you know, maybe 10 minutes of laying down, I had Steve Lookner on (BREAKING NEWS lol) I hear on the TV in the next room.... "Gunshots! Is that Gunshots? What's going on?!? The former President has been shot?!!" just like....I don't know how to describe it, all negativity from a health standpoint, negative mindset and vibes, couldn't stop focusing on this negative aura in the air.

And the blood thinner (Eliquis) that are giving me weird, vivid nightmares are having an effect as well. It's been a few days and pain is down and I tried it again, and it's not as bad, but still some sort of low key negativity. Its a bummer haven't slept nearly as good or been in nearly of good of a mood as when I workout and smoke, which is kind of expected. In the times I felt I had to step away from smoking for one reason or another, it was usually because I wasn't working out and expending all that excess energy, which can turn into anxiety if not taken care of.

I was just bored with a blood clot and wanted to tell that story. When it comes to smoking to relieve a particular pain or ailment I find Cannabis hit or miss. The only positive thing is, usually after the initial first 20-30 minutes of exacerbating an issues, it is usually almost followed by like several hours of relaxation and relief.

Anybody else aware of Blood Thinners having a negative reaction with marijuana? Or anybody have a similar story of trying to ease a medical condition but it worsens?
 
Hello,

Sorry but it seems you've ended up at the usual « Wall of Shame », asking some very sensitive question actually requiring acute medical advice, so no wonder there's radio silence after all.

On top of it it's only 1 medication while many more could typically happen to be involved and hence paving the way to multiple interactions... Quite frankly, feel lucky it was only in a leg!

I had been smoking on the same shatter for like 8 months... ... It's a bummer haven't slept nearly as good or been in nearly of good of a mood as when I workout and smoke, which is kind of expected.

To the risk of sounding like instrumentalization i'd point out this validates a position i tried to defend for over a decade: offer the consumer alternatives so we can experience other "profile" models, and in your case suffer less when it's time to ease up or even consider a total quit of the habit. Dosing via control IMO is everything, shatter may be of great quality but this has to pass a simple reality filter of mine:

#1) Neuro-plasticity;
#2) Contaminants;
#3) Consumption Method & Ritual;
#4) Socio-toxic 3rd-party interference

Which item would you say can be discarded completely with 100 % confidence in your own personal case?

Good day, have fun!! ☮️
