Can smoking marijuana after heart surgery kill you?
Asked by Wiki User
Smoking anything (cigarettes, marijuana) after gastric bypass surgery is highly irritating to the new stomach "pouch" that is created during the surgery. This irritation can cause an ulcer in the stomach, which is almost unbearably painful and prevents the patient from eating or drinking. The other risk of smoking pot after the surgery is the munchies. Immediately after surgery (for the first month or so) your food intake is limited to a couple tablespoons to 1/2 cup of food per meal, and exceeding this amount of food will make you extremely sick, and can also result in death if the staple line in the new stomach is ruptured because it is overfilled. Later, overeating (or eating the wrong foods) will have a profound affect on your ability to lose weight or maintain your weight loss.
To improve on the above, marijuana is used to TREAT ulcers!

How long does tobacco test positive in a blood test after you quit smoking tobacco?
Asked by Wiki User
Depends what you have been smoking. The half-life of nicotine in the body is 2 hours, meaning that every 2 hours the level of nicotine decreases by half. After about 2 days it is unlikely that nicotine would be detectable.
Marijuana is detectable in the blood for anything up to 2 months - but this is due to a chemical in the plant which has little effect on the high (i.e. you could be pumped full of it and you would not be stoned) being absorbed by the body fat and being slowly released into the bloodstream.
