    Does smoking weed make you more vulnerable to getting a heat stroke while outside in 90-100 degree weather? Seems like I can never spend a day outside high in this dam heat. :/

    I always get headaches, and my friend just recently had a heat stroke from it with alot of vomiting involved, Not good times.

    I don't think marijuana has anything to do with that. If you have a heat stroke when you're high, you would have had a heat stroke sober. Just drink a lot of water.

    That's the thing tho, I spend many days outside ALL day perfectly fine sober... It's the days I'm high that I have problems.

    Maybe it's because marijuana increases your heart rate. I've never had any problems with this, and I work outside in the heat (and I smoke beforehand). Cottonmouth could also be a problem. I just stay extra hydrated and usually don't ever have a problem. Of course you get the headache here or there, but that was just from being in the sun too long, whether I was high or not.

    Just bring some water outside, and you should be good. Go inside after a little bit to rest up.
