Question for Marijuana users only please.

[Rusty]

Here is a quick version of my story first.
I have had bowel problems since birth according to my parents. C for 5-6 days was normal from birth till teens. Would also mess my pants at the same time.
Started smoking pot when I was 16 and have been a daily user since. I am now 37.
2 years ago I quit for about 4 months and never had a solid BM. lost weight, lost appetite, night and day sweats, cramping, stomack pain and developed new sores on my inside thighs.
Started smoking again for the last year and half and have had no problems until april when a close friend got busted. I had to stop growing and was very nervous the police would show up at my front door. So the Big D started, lost about 15 lbs. cramps, night sweats etc.

Now I went for upper and lower scope yesterday and they saw nothing and I have read that the cannabis can heal the gut lining.

My questions is have you found that your scopes are clear or that your inside have healed from 1 scope to the next (scars one scope and healed over on the next scope)?

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rusty

im a legal marijuana patient in michigan. ive also been smoking everyday since i started as a young teenager. me and the doc have came to the conclusion that it was so hard to diagnose me because my marijuana use kept my gut healthy. cannabis tightens the bonds in the gut lining and promotes healthy tissue regeneration so i dont see why it wouldnt have contributed to your clean scope.

That's what I was wondering. Now I am thinking I will have to quit smoking and throw myself in to a flare and go to the emergency room or something like that. I have mentioned my use to my GI and GP and neither one wants to talk about it. They seem to just blow me off. But I will wait and see if anything come back with the boipies, blood and stool sample.

Thanks again for your info. and hopefully someday I will be lic. like you and be legal to grow my own. But I think it's going to be an up hill battle finding a doctor that will sign the papers.

Found a really cool video about Crohn's and Marijuana. It has Santana's Samba Pa' Ti playing in the background.
