Anyone with Crohn’s smooking pot?

Hello everyone . I was wondering if there is anyone with crohn’s smoking pot for long time or if they ever tried to relief they’re symptoms . I’ve been smoking before but only for weekend relaxation and now I feel it like I need it everyday after I’ve been diagnosed with crohn’s. I can’t eat, I can’t sleep if I don’t smoke and I am afraid that the smoke can affect my overall health. There are any pills for appetite that work like weed making you hungry ? I know that there are pills for sleeping but I don’t know how addictive they become after using them a while . So there is anyone who can clarify me or give me any advice I appreciate . Thank you all for reading and good luck

Hi Alexzander,

Have you looked into CBD oil? Google it ! Do a lot of research on it.

I do have home but I haven’t get any used of it . I will try it but I don’t believe that will make me hungry like weed is doing . And from nausea if I eat without feeling that I need to eat I have the sensation to throw away.

If you don't want to smoke weed every day you could try CBD oil which is a legal substance made from chemicals found in marijuana and does not have the chemicals which cause addiction or paranoia. It is available in a variety of strengths and can help with a variety of symptoms. I will leave you to do your own research. LoveCBD is a brand I have used myself and have found it effective. I do not want to smoke weed.

Yes, there are pills that will give you an appetite. My Dr prescribed them for me, but I never filled the prescription. Don’t remember the name. Ask you Dr. I’m in the USA.

Have you tried using a vaporizer? That may be a good alternative if you are worried about smoking. Or perhaps edibles, if you’re willing to do the whole trial and error to find your dosage.

Good luck!
