Brain Injury
So I got in a very serious car accident March 19th that resulted in a brian injury (bruising, bleeding, swelling, short-term memory loss) but have recovered amazingly well. I can't drink until its been a year since the accident, which I can totally understand, but have been wondering if I could smoke with no negative effects. I've been googling THC and brain injury and sites that have come up say research proves that THC actually is great in helping brain injuries. If any of you have any information on this it would be great!

ps: I'll try to talk to an un-biased doc before I partake in blazing again, just to be 100% sure its okay ;)

Hmm... well I know that it's good for cutting back on the swelling. That's one reason it's used for people with eye damage and diseases like glaucoma.

Sorry to hear about your injury, I wish I was qualified to answer your question, but if you get the thumbs up, try and roll without any tobacco as I don't think the nicatine would be very good for your head as it can be pretty nasty stuff.

And my doctor recommended that I continue smoking it.. My injury wasnt a TBI, it was an aneurysm and I use the Marijuana to keep my blood pressure down... It keeps me from "losing it" cuz high blood pressure causes me serious "issues"
