The good thing about marijuana is that it is a mostly controllable high. You are still able to think clearly for the most part. But if you are going to smoke weed with Diabetes, be smart about it. Have your supplies nearby or with you. Your mouth may get extra dry because of it, so have a bottle of water on hand.

Always be smart about weed if you are going to smoke it. It's not dangerous for the most part, but still always be careful with illegal substances. Especially if you have a disease that may alter your high or complicate the situation. So just be ready and have someone with you that can help if need be.

no matter what you have, you need a doctor's note. for diabetes, a doctor probably won't give you one for that.

NO, no please don't. Are you really going to stop and check you BS , or give yourself a few U's of Reg when you're stoned and have the munchies? Be real, now.The weed in and of itself is not the problem, but the eating and lack of attention to your bodies signals that's the problem. And how will folks know if your on the nod or slipping into a diabetic coma ? Please find another, safer way to catch a buzz , if you must .And honestly, discuss it with your Doc. He has to respect patient confidentiality , but he can't treat you effectively if you keep secrets. He is not your judge , or the arbiter of morals either.

When you are referring to "weed" I am assuming marijuana. There has been some "independent" research done by a couple of medical doctors who have type 1 diabetes and their primarily results are that it lowers the BG just slightly about 20 mg/dl. This is not conclusive evidence, because "weed" is still illegal in most countries.

Yes. No matter how it gets into your system it affects every organ in the body. It affects the nervous system, brain, blood pressure, and blood sugar. It may contribute to lung cancer, but it does elevate the heart rate and some people have heart attacks because of it. It affects memory, can cause paranoia, anxiety, and depression. It can cause more problems for people with liver disease, low blood pressure, and diabetes. For men it lowers sperm count and may cause the development of breasts in men.
