    Default Marijuana use

    Marijuana is legal in my state. It has thank God helped cured my insomnia and depression.

    Now I'm considering bariatric surgery. Will I have to permanently stop vaping before the surgery? Or will it totally disqualify me? I read that it can cause the need for more sedation during surgery.

    I am also concerned about the issue of fighting excess weight. To improve my well-being, I was advised to try not marijuana but its derivatives. Any tips?

    A friend of mine lived in Japan for a long time and started getting into sumo there. But now, on doctor's' orders, he needs to lose weight. To relax and relieve anxiety, he first tried smoking marijuana, but the effect was short-lived and weak

    A mutual acquaintance of ours took wholesale HHCP distillate through the website https://www.stateofmindlabs.com/stor...ate-p462639684. Now my friend uses vape cartridges with distillate. It helps after strenuous weight loss exercises at the gym. Bariatric surgery is not a topic of discussion because you would have to give up any cannabis options.

    Default Re: Marijuana use

    The use of Marijuana in in smoke or edible is a good question, one most are hesitant to ask their doctor or surgeon.
    I wish a medical professional would chime in on this.
    Smoking cigarettes is bad for the healing process does smoking pot do the same? If not how long after surgery should I wait?
    Are edibles safe to take, if so how long do I need to wait after surgery?
    Naturally you should be concerned with making pot a replacement addiction for food and just getting the munchies and blowing your diet.
    That aside it might be better than alcohol consumption that can sabotage your diet and you want to take full advantage of those 6 months after surgery to lose the bulk of your weight.

    There is no definitive answer to this question since there is no concrete evidence. Some surgeons may recommend that you stop using marijuana before surgery, while others may not have a preference.

    Suppose you are concerned about how marijuana may affect your surgery or recovery. In that case, it is best to speak with your surgeon directly to get their professional opinion. Also, from my experience, I can say that edibles are safe to consume before surgery. I buy edibles online Canada, and I use them on a daily base.

    The black dot on a German Shepherd Dog's face is not a mole or a beauty mark, it is a genetic inheritance in coat appearance that often leaves a black. why do german shepherds have moles

    After the operation, you will have to fully recover and only then you will be able to smoke marijuana again. Marijuana contains components that greatly exacerbate the feeling of hunger, so if you need to lose weight, then you should give up marijuana. I don't have any health problems, so I often use THC products. I especially like to smoke a vape with a THC-based liquid that I buy here https://organiccbdnugs.com. I can smoke vape during the day and thanks to this my day goes easier.

    It's possible that you may have to stop vaping before the surgery to ensure a safe and successful procedure. But it's always best to check with your doctor or surgeon for personalized advice to get a clear understanding of their requirements.

    If you're looking for a safer alternative to vaping before bariatric surgery, you might want to consider trying Spruce's 750 mg Lab Grade CBD oil. This full-spectrum product contains a range of natural cannabinoids and essential oils and is designed to provide maximum benefits. CBD oil has been shown to have a range of potential benefits, including reducing anxiety and improving sleep quality, so it may be worth considering as a non-invasive option to help manage your symptoms.

    I think that marijuana is helpful for a lot of things but It's not legal in a lot of countries.
