I never smoked marijuana or had any form of it in my adult life and at age 55 , my Mother died of cancer in 2013 . Marijuana was the only herbal medicine that helped me through many difficult days. I used it at bedtime to help me relax and I worked full time as a nurse in the daytime with no side effects. I was calm at home and able to grieve without making me sick or crying constantly.

Piss test?

I stopped smoking cannabis over ten years ago. Wanting to be a positive role model in my children’s lives. I’m a disabled veteran and was dealing with the VA and their pharmaceutical medicines. Over a six month period I dropped a 65lbs and not by trying. Being rushed to the hospital three different times because I’d collapse due to lack of nutrition and being so badly dehydrated. Every test you could think of for a man in his 50’s. They found nothing. Actually my heart, blood pressure and bloodwork are immaculate. When I was not smoking cannabis I had high blood pressure. Found it extremely difficult to lose weight. I was always told my blood pressure was so bad I was looking at a stroke or heart attack. I think I’ll just stick to the natural plant. The past 30 years the medical field has really lost my respect

Ever since then I get a different high from weed. Unless I am smoking a ton of weed all the time where my tolerance is high, I've always had an unusually low tolerance for weed since then as well. Even if I take an extremely small single hit, and blow it out immediately, I will still get full fledged paranoia at times.

@Noah Wolf I believe I probably have something like ADHD or autism, but definitely not the hyperactive kind. I've always had attention problems since a young child and I still have them to this day, and it continues to negatively effect my life at age 36. I have a hard time adapting to new situations where I am forced to make things work in a new situation, I always forget something critical. I also have always had problems getting things backwards or mixed up with verbal instructions, if it's not fairly simple. In school I absolutely struggled with Math but I was decent at most other things not related to Math. All that said, I don't know if I want to get properly diagnosed or try medication. I went through a brief phase in my younger life where I was doing crystal meth here and there (I know, very stupid) and I had a *_really_* bad reaction to it in one particular instance where I thought I was having a stroke/heart attack, felt like I was about to die any second. When I came out of it, felt like it caused some brain damage as well, but the hazy/cloudy brain fog I had for about a year afterward has thankfully passed. After that I can barely drink coffee or use any form of caffeine without getting a weird reaction to it that I never used to get. I don't even want to think about what other stimulant drugs would do. But weed has always given me paranoid reactions long before I was doing meth, and afterward nothing changed at all.

Been smoking all my life. I do not need anyone telling me what it is or what it does. I know it is the most awesome plant our dear God provided fir us. Fear not. It is the quality of your journey not the length. Stay alert alert, educate yourself. Live and love within your means. My motto.

I first smoked pot at 18. I'm now 70, and still smoke, though not as much as I used to. Very little alcohol. I've never had a cardiac episode nor do I know anyone that has experienced one related to pot. I had a good career as an RN for 27 years. That's where I got all my hemostats from. I use a pulse oximeter occasionally when I smoke. I've never had a drop or increase in heart rate, and my O2 levels never change. I also grow my own, so I know it's not adulterated. Happy trails.

With all due respect, Dr. Oh, you are a captivating speaker and presenter. Thanks for the wisdom here sir.

Please note that all the cautions you are listing for cannabis apply equally to all pharmceuticals as well. They work for some and not for others, they need to be individually titrated (and often are not), and they have interactions with other drugs or foods, and can have detrimental side effects .

Just a note: Our beautiful, big dog was 10 years old when we found his hips were faulty and he suffered much pain. My daughter had been given a gift of brownies from a young man who was allowed to grow his own 4 plants. She had a new baby and did not want to be inattentive or sleep too soundly. We gave the dog a tiny smidgeon of the brownie one night. He slept like the proverbial rock. EVERY night for the rest of his life, at 5 o’clock he sat under the brownie cupboard, begging us in his (talking)voice until he was given his smidgeon of brownie.

I buy several strains based on their terpene profiles and what the different terpenes do for me. Then I mix the strains to come up with a blend that handles the symptoms I live with. I keep a journal of what blends of terpenes/ cannabis and quantities used in the blends that I need . i.e. Back spasms-Mercene Anti inflammation-Caryophyllene Etc….

I was a pothead for many years before it was legalized for medical use. I hadn't smoked for about 25 years. When anti inflammatory meds quit working, I got a medical card and found a dispensary. The employees spend a great deal of time answering your questions to assure you find the best product for your needs. I have tried CBD in the past with little result, but these are far superior products. I take gummies, but I also do the buds. Not all day or everyday. But it helps me deal with my hip and knee pain, and since I knew what Indica and Sativa, thanks to the staff, I was able to try several different strands in joint form, and see which I preferred. They always address my concerns and answer my questions.

I can't afford some of these products, but, I use THC to sleep. I came out of a horrible childhood, I have stomach issues so don't drink alcohol, and then I had a vehicle accident and got quite a head injury, and I have Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, plus other things like Hemachromatosis, Emphysema, etc so I consider THC a gift from God! For some reason I can tolerate a lot of pain, but, lack of sleep can turn me into a different not very nce person! Now, I sleep well and everyone loves me again!

You are comforted, but you really know that if you were fitter and maybe a few years younger, there would be things that would really rather be doing that would really make you happy, things you used to do? But we just settle for comfort.This is the same as security and freedom. We give up our freedoms to make us feel more safer comfortable.

As an abused infant and child my will and spirit were completely broken by the age of 8, and by 11 I had a pistol to my little head. I remember exactly where I was in 1975 when I first tried it, and it was life-changing. I seldom use it for "fun", it has ALWAYS been, long before the first dispensary, medicine for me, serious, life-saving medicine. I accomplished things in my career that will never be done again. I've stood in the face of militant youth, abusive cops, and violent bikers looking to do harm, I've juggled multimillion dollar projects on 2 continents, raised a family, and tried to stay benevolent and connected, ALL because of marijuana. I'm alive and my kids are here because of weed, I WILL NEVER regret using it as Creator always intended. It is literally a life saver for me and millions of CPTSD and PTSD sufferers. Where the myriad of big pharma meds failed, especially after I was shot during Katrina rescue, weed again came to my rescue. It is my friend and my savior to this point and to hell with ANYone who derides it solely out of their own stupidity and ignorance.

And that was the first time I ever got terminated from any of my full time trucking jobs. I went on to drive until 2018- then was forced to retire because I failed a newly DOT mandated "whisper" test on my every two year physical. I'm 74, I take no prescribed drugs, have no physical issues. I MANAGED to survive the roads to hell and back with about 3.75 million accident free miles. I really think because I always smoked cigarettes and reefer, as a double trouble smoker, I early on worried about my lungs. Wierdest thing is my lungs always stayed clear. I finally figured out that the marijuana, is a very good expectorant and it was the* cough* that expelled the cigarette gunk. Also with the marijuana smoke I always took a deep hit..pulled the smoke down into my big toes!! HOLD IT...... ok, exhale..great lung exercise. Funny that you know a lot about what you're talking about ,but my history of my first twenty years of doing my own personal research is written in my bio.

@@TraceurDoc1 Thank you for that clarification. (I have never believed Med students are dumb. Ever!) I should have said "every pharmacy executive" should be required to see this presentation, because Walmart has never put the grapefruit warning on a med I take. The way I found out is that Walgreens DID put the warning on. I had suffered side effects when I unknowingly went on a grapefruit binge. I mentioned this to a Walmart pharmacist and even sent a note to their corporate office--to no avail. They never did mark the medication, at least, not the one I take.

I'm glad to hear that this audience has evolved past the giggle-react nonsense that plagued this medicine for much of the 20th century.

Edibles are far more overwhelming than smoking and some people don't find self control problematic or abstinence

After awhile I felt extreme heaviness in my heart ♥ After smoking weed similar to heartache,which is why I stopped.

"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food" Hippocrates quote one of my favorites, we should all be responsible for ourselves and have that right to take charge of our own lives!

How many millions of people smoke Cannabis responsibly and do not get heart issues? How many millions of people have smoked Cannabis responsibly since time began and did not get heart problems ? How many people in this study were unfit, had a poor diet and were Vit D, Magnesium, Potassium and Zinc deficient?

Probably none, they probably just smoke a way better strain, or a specific medical strain that isn't for them.

Yes - this lecture was alarmist. If you have heart disease, do not consume cannabis in any manner. If not, the risk is very low. In this lecture Dr. Oh starts by showing single case reports, one after the other, without relevance to the general population, then goes on later and quickly and parenthetically states that for most people there is little risk. But he had already scared the daylights out of his audience. That was seemingly the purpose. Also - There is little to no clinical data on CBD interactions with liver enzymes and commonly prescribed medications - alarmism without data. The historic track record on cannabis has been rife with misleading statements and outright lies by institutional authorities, which led more than one generation to ignore professional advice, and believe that lies were told about other drugs. It is important to get it right.

Remember to focus on what you enjoy. When you are enveloped with a task is when your focus cannot be broken, which from a personal standpoint is what I smoke these days for. My PTSD in the form of flashbacks does not occur when I am glued to the task I have prepared for myself. Good health to you.

Had a surgery with a very long and painful recovery a few years ago. Doctors prescribed hydromorphone, and promptly scared me out of using it with a lecture about how it kills people. OTC painkillers did nothing for me. I tried a dose of hydromorphone. Nothing. I could try taking more, but after the scare talk, I ruled that out. In desperation I tried vaping cannabis, and it probably saved my life. It got me through the worst of the pain and associated misery, allowed me to sleep, and the only side effects were a fresh appreciation of music and humor, and an occasional craving for sour cream and bacon chips. Over two years later and still not fully recovered, but cannabis is still a daily part of my life, mostly right before bed. I sleep better than I ever have, and my heart and lungs ace every test my doctor puts me through.

I met Dr.Oh when I had my cardiac rehab a few years ago. He’s done a marvelous job educating people. Thanks so much.

In 2021, I went to Colorado to visit some family but stayed at a hotel my first night in town. Instead of waiting until I met up with family and had them instruct me on proper cannabis use, I decided to go directly to a dispensery and try some in my hotel room. I vaped fresh flower in a handheld vaporizer. I had smoked Cannabis when I was 14 but of course was ignorant of anything about it. I took 2 or 3 small hits from a tiny, miniscule amount of green leaves in a dry herb vaporizer. Then, sat down to have some dinner in my room. 30min later it hit me like a ton of bricks and I almost blacked out, lol. I layed down on the bed and didn't get up until the morning. Later, I learned the cannabis I bought was 30%!!! The amount I inhaled would have been around 40-50mg of THC, and I had no tolerance at all. A normal dose for first time user should have been about 5-10mg. Needless to say it was a very unpleasant experience and I didnt use cannabis again for several weeks even though I had full availability to it in Colorado. It's really important to talk with someone or do online research to understand the proper dosages. I thought I was starting with a tiny amount and didnt realize how potent it was. Since then I've experimented a lot and found the strains and dosage levels that work best for me. I prefer straight Sativa using a Live Resin vape. The Sativa doesnt affect my short term memory as much and the Live Resin extraction process makes the end product taste terrific instead of some weird chemical taste. Edibles take too long to activate and the affects are harder to control since the level of highness can be hampered or helped by the food in your gut. With vaping you feel the effects within 20min and if they begin wearing off you can just do one more hit to keep the buzz going. You have full control of when you want to get off the train. With edibles you're on that rollercoaster until the very end whether you like it or not. And if the high isnt as intense as you wanted you cant eat anymore because you might accidentally take too much and only find out 2hrs later when it hits hard.

I take, synthroid,metformin, lisinipril, Apixaban,cardezem, singulair, Lipitor, albuterol, potassium,magnesium, and calcium. 4 yrs ago I stopped Tramadol (20yrs) and Ambien(15yrs) and use med cannabis, Afib has calmed down intermittent episodes, sleep well, chronic pain has went from moderate/severe to mild. My daily life has improved! Went from 23 hrs a day on my back to being able to drive again and limited walking with rollator. I could not set up in a chair for more than 5-10 minutes, now no problems for 5-6 hours. Occasionally take a Tylenol but that’s it. Retirement is improving!😃

Better than alcohol or pain killers

I had a kidney transplant in 2015. The immune suppressant drugs, pro-graph and cellcept caused major sleep problems. Someone convinced me to try cannabis. I break up the buds on a cookie sheet, place in preheated 225 deg. oven for 10 minutes or so. I remove the cookie sheet cool, then grind in a spice grinder. I place a measured 1/4 level teaspoon or less on a tablespoon with peanut butter and eat it. In about an hour the first effects occur, then in two to three hours the full effect comes on. If I’m moving around it’s one thing, if I’m sitting or laying it’s much more powerful. I do this every night for sleep and it is highly effective. I wake up feeling rested and good. It definitely increase blood pressure but in the morning when I check my BP, it is typically 120 ish over 68 or 70. I just turned 70 on this Christmas Day. Here is where it gets interesting, I have regular comprehensive blood work and my blood work is excellent as evaluated by my Nephrologist. So from there I don’t know but I have no chest pains or unusual heart rhythm. I do not smoke it and use it as described, only about an hour before I go to bed.

Using it for about six months now. My anxiety and depression has decreased exponentially. Only use a couple of puffs before going to bed.

i started using cannabis at age 13. I'm now 73 yrs old.. Still using cannabis and, as yet, there's no sign of heart stress..

How to have an unbiased study with this knowledge in mind? If heart issues (even the shape of the heart) can be caused by emotional stress, then you would have to find participants for a study with little emotional stress. I would suggest that many cannabis users take it for relief from emotional/psychological stress, even prior to using it for medical conditions. Young people suffering with heart conditions: how many of these are also suffering from intense emotional or psychological stress? Fascinating, thank you.

Regardless of what anyone says it does effect everyone differently. I work with many young kids who smoke and act like brain dead zombies, and some can function well. Me personally as I’ve gotten older it does made my mind wonder and often take me to dark places, sometimes it takes me to great places.it’s all about controlling those negative thoughts. I’ve smoked for 40 years and I can promise it’s not healthy for you, it does help people cope with certain conditions but I know 100% it has lead to some heart rhythm/racing problems I’ve developed. As mentioned in the video I believe it affects the whole circulatory system in various ways, also effects the nervous system. I always twitch much more when I’ve smoked. So I’m ready to quit after 40 years, can’t smoke forever….

I've been struggling with cptsd, among other things, one day recently, I took an edible, and I was able to see "outside" of myself and the harm drinking was doing. Since then, the euphoric joy that begins with the first drink, is gone. I'm drinking 1\3 less than I have in decades, and I'm glad.

@@nickx4475 Yeah... ketamine clinics are popping up where I am. Also, many people with PTSD/CPTSD find relief with cannabis. Just (preferably) stay away from alcohol.

What I can tell people from years of cannabis use myself is that it 100% causes rapid heart rate a lot of times and just because of that effect it can spark a major panic attack and it’s also a unique stimulant that differs than Amphetamines or caffeine etc which increases that mental stimulation and sparks a huge flow of thoughts and ideas which can lead to paranoia alongside anxiety with or without mental hallucinations not so much if at all visual hallucinations. It causes you to feel that time slows way down and music sounds extremely intense and your mind starts to see things in a different “light” so to speak. I have personally done legitimate psychedelics in the past and none of which ever gave me a “Bad trip” except for cannabis which is the only one ever to give me extremely horrible trips that were very uncomfortable. But that’s just me personally as far as a “bad trip” goes. The positives are euphoria and great focus on whatever you like doing along with appetite stimulation and relaxation/sleep for insomniacs. Relieves stress and makes you more talkative and causes laughter releasing dopamine and helps depression as well. It really does boil down to terpenes on how it affects your body chemistry 100% which I have proven for myself indefinitely.
