Yes, it can, but, just like all other 'side effects' of marijuana, this varies from person to person. Some lose their short term memory from before they smoke, and some can't remember what they did when they smoke. Some don't experience it at all.

Gov't studies state the following: Heavy use of marijuana may lead to memory loss.

The key words are heavy...and may!

If you partake a little on the weekend then you are in no risk of being classed as heavy...

Also, a few decades ago there where a few Gov't studies that claimed horedious lung damage and severe cognitive damage from use. However these test were done on monkeys where they strapped mask to the monkeys and pumped marijuana smoke into them for 4 to 8 minutes, multiple times per day. The test was massively flawed in that the test method was as if designed to cause massive brain damage.

When medicated, yes. After the effect wears off, everything is alright.

Weed, Marijuana, Pot etc. are all slang names for Cannabis. Let us start using the correct name out of respect to the wonder medicine that God has provided for us.

I have suffered from Fibromyalgia for 20 years. Finally after using medical cannabis I have my life back. I no longer want to die and do not think about it any longer.

It is a shame how good people are being jail and imprisoned for using Cannabis. When are we going to stop being driven by fear and wake up to the reality that Cannabis is a positive experience and not the evil gateway drug that leads to hard drugs, such as crack and heroin.

The most destructive substance on earth is alcohol. Stay away from it. It is addicting and is bad on your brain and liver. Cannabis is none of those things. In fact, Cannabis is as safe as aspirin.
