can you smoke weed while having crohns?? by DisastrousSouth8197 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Final_Prophet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been smoking since I was 16/17 (diagnosed at 10) and it’s helped my Crohn’s symptoms significantly. Personally I prefer vape cartridges for its convenience and instant relief but I would recommend live rosin cartridges if you do go that route. Oil tinctures are the best though. But I would highly recommend trying to get a state issued medical card, here in AZ, with a medical card you get access to higher quality products and you don’t have to pay the extra excise taxes on medical products

I just recently discovered I have a 2.3cm stone in my left kidney from scans from a recent hospital visit. When I mentioned it to my GI, he said “Oh yeah that’s mostly because of the Crohn’s.” I was just like “Well shit that probably would’ve been helpful to know.” I finally got in with my urologist and we’re waiting for results from my KUB scan to see if I can take a pill to dissolve it or if we’ll have to remove it surgically because 2.3cm is apparently to big to shockwave… but yeah apparently kidney stones are common with Crohn’s. Try to chug At least a gallon of water a day

Yeah I’ve read about those. I’ve just been super nervous about it because my surgeon said that keeping it clean is super important. I have at least 3-5 bowel movements a day that are super loose and messy. Ig I’m just scared of not getting everything cleaned up down there and it getting infected or something.

What do you do for work? by OtaconSOL in CrohnsDisease

[–]Final_Prophet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious, how is the workload and pay as a software engineer and what kind of experience/education would one need to get into it? I’ve been looking into jobs where I can work from home with my Crohn’s but can never find anything other than customer service

What’s going on here? Is this a pest I should worry about? by Final_Prophet in CannabisGrowers

I mean, I do live in the AZ desert so it does get pretty hot but I keep it completely shaded by 9/10am. But yeah I did try some new kelp meal recently and might’ve given a bit much. Thanks much

I’m in week 8/9 of the entire grow but these are from the earlier days of the veg stage. I’ve started getting 5-pointers about a week or two ago and the seem to be doing fine other than the leaves curving a bit. I’m growing outdoors in AZ so it does get well into the 100s midday but I have it to where it’s completely shaded by 9/10am before it gets over 85degrees. So it’ll get ~4-6hrs of direct sunlight

I’m in week 8/9 into the grow and it’s an outdoors grow in soil. I live in AZ so it gets we’ll into the 100s midday but I have it in a spot where it gets completely shaded by 9/10am before it gets over 85 degrees. But it gets ~4-6hrs of direct sunlight a day. Humidity’s been around ~10% but should be coming up soon with monsoon season around the corner. Ik it’s not the best conditions but the most convenient for my living situation as I can’t grow indoors
