Heart Attack

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by bowlssss, Mar 28, 2014.

    Ive been smoking religiously for quite a while now, going to a event where i know i will be smoking alot, my heart rate resting is around 100-110, however my blood pressure is fairly low 100/75.
     
    Is there a chance of me having a heart attack?
     
     
    Only reason im asking is i have only smoked once or twice before whilst taking a fatburner which raises my heart rate resting.
     
    Cholestrol fine.
     
     
    Hate to be a buzzkill and not smoke lol.

    Why the heck is your resting heart rate over 100... That's not good

    confuses me sometimes. Feels like my heart is beating really fast but i feel my chest and its relatively slow. Sometimes its switched. But i know its normal. So i dont worry about it unless i wanna have a panic attack lol. Your fine man

    Your resting heartrate is pretty high. I would expect a heart attack/aneurism/stroke or something of that nature at an earlier age than most people with a heart rate that fast. This is regardless of marijuana.....
