    So basically I went to the doctors for back problems because I have been losing sleep over my back pains and I constantly have to twist around, he asked if i've ever "Abused" any substances, I told him i've smoked Marijuana. He then proceeded to lecture me, telling me I shouldn't drive for 6 months because driving is a privilege. He asked me if I smoked cigarettes and I told him no because I didn't like the idea of smoking tobacco. He then said "You don't like the idea of smoking cigarettes, but you'll smoke marijuana? I proceeded to tell him there are various studies that prove that marijuana doesn't cause cancer and that tobacco does. He then told me that I was wrong because "So you don't think holding in all this marijuana smoke will cause cancer?" When you smoke cigarettes you inhale much less at a time" then he proceeded to laugh. He then told me I am obviously over weight (Which I am, but not horribly, 220 pounds) that my weight is causing my posture to be "Irregular". He also said that I play games to much, and that I need to go outside and be more active. He didn't give me anything for my back and suggested physical therapy. He also asked my if my throat problems (I have a sinus infection) were because I smoke? He also said they call people who smoke stoner's because they eventually become dependant on smoking marijuana.. Oh he also said "I remember in California they would take your house away if you where caught smoking in the house, I don't know what the law is here.." and I know for a fact thats total BS because in California Marijuana is decriminalized.


    Now he's telling me this, but i've been smoking for 6 months and if anything, it has enhanced my life. I'm not as shy as I used to be (I used to feel awkward in groups) my grades actually got better when I was smoking..

    Doesn't sound like he said anything wrong, sounds like you're just kind of butthurt about what he did say. Yes there are studies that the additives in tobacco products increase the risk of cancer, but smoking weed can still give you cancer. It's a matter of inhaling and holding smoke in your lungs. Go roll up some lettuce and smoke it daily for 20 years and you're putting yourself at a higher risk of cancer.

    some doctors are gonna look down at you and try and lecture you about not doing it, and other doctors frankly dont give a fuck.

    guess you got the wrong one.

    There's no statistic that can say "no one has ever gotten cancer from smoking weed" because its hard to say what causes cancer at all. You can smoke cigarettes all day every day and get brain cancer and not lung cancer; you can go through your whole life and not smoke anything and get lung cancer. Weed does not help cure cancer, it alleviates the symptoms.

    However the fact of the matter is inhaling carbon monoxide (smoke) into your lungs is detrimental and can lead to cancer. Fact. Firemen get lung cancer because what do they come into contact with? Shit tons of smoke. Same with coal miners...

    I would have spit in his face and left, and definitely wouldn't have paid that bill.

    You should definitely work on losing weight. If anything, just eat more fruits and vegetables, and go for bike rides.

    dude you are talking about a whole diffrent type of smoke that smoke has many toxins in it like a house fire plastic sheet rock metal wiring wood dust so many bad toxins its just not the carbon that causes cancer the smoke in weed cannot cause cancer but the thc kills and speeds up the healing proces

    i vape most of the time ftw

    To be honest I believe cancer has a lot more to do with emotional problems, particularly feelings of anger.
