i got really sick! side effect question

[johanna09]

Hey,

I've been smoking for years now, and have never really had a problem with weed making me sick. But last night after dinner, I smoked a joint and stood in line at a small movie theater and started to feel really dizzy and hot. My heart started racing, my stomach twisted into knots and my chest began to hurt. And then I fainted--completely blacked out--at this movie theater, and fire fighters and an ambulance had to come and take me to the hospital. I had to be on oxygen for awhile and the doctor monitored my heart but said everything was fine, that I was probably overheated and it was too crowded in line.

The problem is that I know it had at least a little something to do with the weed--I think it was a combination of that, the line and the heat. Last time I smoked this particular weed my stomach felt sort of sick when I was going to work; I was really concious of the fact that I was stoned and was kinda paranoid that everyone was looking at me. My limbs were sort of shaky, I was dizzy and I felt I was walking weird. I guess I shouldn't have smoked it again, since I felt sick the first time but I thought it wouldn't happen again, at least not to the extent that it did.

My question is, I wonder if this has happened to anyone else? I've smoked so many kinds of weed, good and bad, and I feel like this dope may have been laced with some kind of other drug..I've never had anything that made my heart race like that, or made me that dizzy and nauseous. I've had experiences with lots of natural hallucinogens but I stay away from synthetic drugs like speed, etc., so I wouldn't know what those are like. If this has happened to you, did you ever figure out what caused it? I'm feeling better today, but I'm just curious as to what really happened.

Any suggestions you could give would be great...Thank you!!!

Wow, that is so scary!!! I am not sure what happened to you. Could you have been dehydrated?

Hopefully some other folks here can help/

Heya, Sorry to hear that happened and glad to hear that you feel better. I've smoked weed that has given me headaches and some that have made me dizzy. Actually recently my friend was smoking with me, he had just got the sack. It made us both dizzy, heart race, and really made things crazy. We were out in my smoke spot, which is in the woods at some four wheeler jumps. It was hot, but we were in shade, when i got off my fourwheeler to walk over to sit down, as soon as i stood up i was feeling crazily weird. Just like i said, i was dizzy, heart racing and it made me feel kinda upside down for about 5 seconds, and i'd stop and i'd stabalize out after 10 seconds of standing still. It was weird but it wasn't anything serious for me, i just made sure i got my blood sugar up when i got home. I drank some orange juice and i was fine after that.

It's the only time that's happened to me. I wish i could help better but i just have an experience that's all.

I've never had it happen with any other weed, but we smoked that a few times and it did that to me.

well down where im from we have a problem with ppl lacing there weed with cocaine and stuff. so it might be something like that going on. that or maybe its just really really bad weed lol.

I think you had a panic attack. My cousin gets them when he gets to high.

Hi Guys
this sounds like low blood pressure
glad i dont get it while smoking, it would scare the hell out of me lol :shocked:

lol that must have been some good ****!
Ive gotten strains out here that have been known to make pepl pass out or throw up. The funny thing is tho, evryone who did said it felt great. Go figure.
Different strains, different reactions. Know ur dealer and know what you are getting. Mine always tells me if hes givin me some insane weed so I know to be carefull. I had a couple bowls of the stuff people were passin out on and I noticed my pupils were very dialated and it was hard to see. Now kids, that means ur hallucinating.
It was some good stuff :shocked:

My heart races pretty well sometimes and ive been smoking with people and they say, "dude, my heart is beating really fast" so its nothing new
I never got hurt from it and neither has anyone i know but i dont have heart conditions or anything

if you have problems with blood pressure or any other heart related condition, then you cant b too carefull.

Rule of thumb - KNOW YOUR LIMITS! Progression is key in evry aspect of life so dont over do it. You have to work up to the point where you can smoke anything anywhere anytime as much as you want. But dont b in a rush to get there
QuickFix - If you ever have the need to bring down ur high in a hurry, just drink a bunch of water. It still takes a while to come down but at least its safe and effective.
Hope this helped

I'm glad your feeling better,
It must have totally blown that trip for you and any friends.
I've got lots of years behind me and I have heard most of this many times before. If you get bud laced with the cain, then thank your friend, unless he didn't tell you to begin with. Good folks would never twizzle you in the back with poisons intentionally, unless they are dumber than rocks. Know your sources, or grow your own. As for intensity, yeah I have had smoke that sent me away for awhile, and some that has made me feel a bit un-nerved as it were. Sounds also like some of you are really slammin the wall hard and perhaps you should try a slightly different approach. Mine was introduced to me 35 yrs ago. A very cool friend taught me that getting up with the crack of dawn, a couple of good hits and a hot cup of tea or coffee can absolutly set off a good morning. Another thing that you guys might want to consider is what you are doing for your bodies while your head is going off on a buzz.
Perhaps a bagel, and some thing good and gentle to drink. Smokin something that is going to ring your bell can be fun and all, but have certain things near at hand such as a juicy sweet orange, which I find is very refreshing. Playing the high/Low game, (smoke and caffiene) is a bit of a drain on you in the end run, so put back into your body the good things that you know you need. nuff said about that.
Ending up in a panic, visually tripped out to the point that your vision is in frames like movie sequencing, shakes and sweating, and then puking makes me think (YIKES and GADZOOKS) !!! what on earth are you smokin ???
smoke in peace

the only possible thing i could think of is other drugs perhaps mixed in withe the water while feeding during the growing process. i've heard of it many times,not so much as to increase yield but, to increase affects which makes sense. but if i were u i'd stay away from whatever that guys getting cuz its only gonna keep coming, either get a different hook up or grow.

I remember Parquot it was a weed Killer back in the 70 it had oily tint to it, when The Gov went to Columbia and spay the weed down there and it was being ship here and then it went to other place !!
It made alot of people sick back then!!
