Hi, I have seen other threads about people complaining about throat burn...i have been smoking heavily for 6 years and its actually gotten worse. I also have GI issues like esophagitis, gastroparesis, IBS and IBD. I'm wondering if any of that could be worsened by weed. My doctor says it can actually cause gastroparesis but i had that before i started smoking. I smoke out of bowls or blunts, and its always loud. The burning is horrible. Any advice? Kim
Is it hurting something by smoking bowls or blunts with my throat problem? Or is it just something i have to deal with if i decide to keep doing it?
Sounds like you've damaged ur throat bits (technical I know) , sure it will recover it time, recovery will be 10 x quicker if you can keep away from anything smokey. Edibles? When I used a vaporizer, the throat irritation was more severe than with bongs. I ran it pretty strong though
Hi Kymmysue, smoking wax stings my throat. Not exactly burns but it starts stinging shortly after I inhale so hopefully you'll be okay with it. It seems to me that if cannabis is causing your gastroparesis it wouldn't matter what form your cannabis is in, edibles, smoking, or vaping all should affect the GI system the same way. If it's your throat that's burning, changing forms may work for that but not the esophagitis or gastroparesis.
I was diagnosed with all that years before I started smoking. It's not the weed but I will try other forms. Edibles make me sick cause all I have ever tasted was thc. I have literally had to keep from gagging while eating a cookie. Carts are ok but not as strong. Bongs are ok. What kind of vaporizer should I get?
I've got a cookie recipe that you won't taste the weed. Never had a complaint, even from my wife who HATES the taste too. Not for folks with diabetes tho. Lol
I see, I misunderstood. I don't like vapes, they don't give me the punch I want. My usual way is RSO in a capsule and sometimes I do burp up the taste but when that happens the taste is fleeting. I sometimes need a wax booster with a rig before bedtime when the capsule's effects is wearing thin.
Take the original tollhouse chocolate chip cookie recipe and swap peanut butter gram for gram with the choc chips in the recipe. (You can add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and vanilla to the recipe, as it works well with the peanut butter) ( I weigh my cookies @ approx 15-20g precooked and cook for about 6 minutes @ 350f. This leaves them soft in middle and less brittle for transport) I typically use 21g of flower to make my 2 sticks of butter but you can add/subtract from that depending on tolerance and cash flow. Decarb green at 240f for 1 hour. Let cool slightly, then drop in butter on double boiler for 1+ hours. (I usually do 2 hours unless I need them faster lol) Then strain your butter really well to get all the butter plant matter out. That's how peanut butter kushies are done.
So use weed butter instead of regular? How much butter for a batch? How many cookies does it make, and do you have to eat the whole thing? My dog accidentally ate a whole pot cookie the other day and she was MESSED UP. Like wobbly drunk, flinching, peeing herself...cotton mouth lol. I am thinking it shouldnt take much. I just have a hard time even getting high with flower...never have with edibles. I had a brownie once and it tasted good but didnt get me blazed...I want something that lasts long lol
