CHS - cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome - MIT Technology Review

1. Not sure if this relevant, but I used medical thc

for peripheral neuropathy pain, which worked great, for about a year. Then my gallbladder stopped working, diarrhea, nausea, dark urine, all symptoms of gallbladder disease. I lost 15 pounds, couldn't eat. Had sonograms, ex rays, endoscopy. All negative, doctor said he had only seen this with heavy cannabis smokers. I was using medical cannabis from a syringe, a rice grain piece of thc on a cracker once a day. It worked great, my pain was gone, but my gastro symptoms became a mess and untolerable. It took at least a year for me to recover from that. Now I am ok, still have neuropathy pains, but am coping.
