I'd like to share my experience with arrhythmia and marijuana.
My arrhythmia was diagnosed back to 2016.
Number of PVCs by years:
2016 - 2030
2017 - 9578
2018 - 14319
01.2021 - 4056
06.2021 - 18604
08.2021 - 12525
From 07.2021 - till 08.23 I was on Propafenone. The last holter was on the drug.
I was going to have my ablation 08.25.
Accidentally, I met my friend on weekend and we smoked MJ. It was 2 days before the ablation, but after the last holter.
Later I went to the hospital to have my ablation. At the beginning they did me ECG. Doc said that they didn't see any arrhythmias. Then they took me to the procedure room, where they connected me to more advanced ECG monitor. They waited like 15min, and no any PVC happened. Then they gave me some hard drug to stimulate my heart. It literally was jumping out of my chest. No PVC after another 15min.
Then docs decided to put 24h holter on me.
Next day I was very surprised when doc came to me and said that they didn't know how to explain that - there was only one PVC during 24h holter. Which is better than in a healthy person.
I have no explanation either. I tried almost everything to get my condition normalized previously - I was jogging, swimming, I took massages, long vacations, yoga. Nothing changed my holter results so drastically.
Just wanted to share this in case someone had similar experience.
P.S. I'm not MJ smoker. The previous time I smoked, was like 4 years ago.
P.P.S. Marijuana can cause arrhythmia even for healthy people. For people suffering from arrhythmia MJ can cause cardiovascular complications. They are known med facts. Be care.
Ok so I read that you use CBD with arrythmia, I have a PVC a extra heart beat and I was wondering if I could use CBD or if it would hurt me. I'm only 31 so yeah I'm still learning. My CBD have 0.03% of THC in it. I'm using the vape pen.
Do you take the CBD oil orally or apply it topically (if so where?)
