When I was young I tried smoking some pot and had an allergic reaction to it. Years later, I tried hash - same thing - I was on the floor for 2 hours with such vertigo I thought I was surely dying and I couldn't call a doctor or ambulance because pot and hash were illegal then, I would be arrested as soon as I was well enough to walk. Do you think I would have the same reaction to modern THC orally? Topically? (I will never smoke anything.) Have any of you had an allergic reaction to pot or hash? Peggy

I can't use "typical" THC products. However, there's a sublingual CBD with THC oil that is completely non-reactive. Got it at a dispensary. Also hate the taste so I put it in empty capsules-you can get it at a drugstore.

I can’t smoke it, I have a similar reaction but add to it epilepsy. Apparently I am one of the unlucky ones where it doesn’t help with seizures. Now it’s also important to remember that a first timer probably doesn’t require much more than one puff! Don’t smoke the whole thing! It is also important to look for a strain that isn’t too high in thc. Ultimately the CBD shows the most promise for pain, but it seems to require at least some thc to work synergistically. If you are using oil or gummies, you need to use it regularly to ease pain. It needs to sort of build up in your system. For quick relief of acute pain, smoke or vape it. Luckily pot lotion doesn’t bother me, nor do gummies. I make my own of both. The lotion is a godsend.
