Allergic To Cannabis?! How did this happen...
Hey all, was wondering if anyone has developed an allergic reaction to our beloved plant at anytime in their life.
I recently was led to believe that I accidentally smoked moldy weed, but with more research it sounds like I've developed an allergy it. I only realized this after not smoking for a day, and seeing improvement on my symptoms. I would then go to burp my jars that are curing, and my throat would start to swell up again. It's worse after I smoke, so I feel like that is the problem. Symptoms include: Throat closing (not completely but swelling) skin rash sweating/chills/face flushing hypersensitivity ringing in ears involuntary twitching in extremities I really don't want to throw my grow career away. I have a lot of money invested in my room and to have to take it down would be heartbreaking for me guys. BUT. If I am indeed allergic to it, it's not worth suffering over. I'm trying out some allergy meds tonight and will work in the garden to see whats up, but I'm curious if anyone else out there is like me. Thanks for the support guys, can always count on icmag to come through!

I know for a fact that I'm allergic to the pollen of males, sneezing fits something fierce!
No ill effect ever noticed from the girls tho.

Yo P n'P.
It's just some seasonal type of flue thingy man. Our whole country has it atm, all the same symptomps as you were describing above. Last time I saw an epidemy like this must have been some 35 years ago. Oh, and THC seems to make it worse. If I smoke THC rich bud it 'll hurt my vocal cords wich makes me gagg & coff, If I smoke THC free bud like my Finola hemp I ain't got no itch at all. It'll pass, lol

I'm super allergic. If I work in my room even non flowering plants cause bumps on my skin. If I'm trimming I have to wear a mask, take an allergy pill(claritin), and afterwards take Mucinex to break up the buildup in my respiratory system. I can hear myself wheezing at night when I go to sleep. It's not good and I'm not the only one I know that has this problem. Only one other person I know has it as bad as me.
I think it's the result of living in my warehouse for 3-4 years straight and trimming every 5 weeks. Constantly being exposed to it and inhaling it in my sleep. I try not to trim herb anymore. I can usually do it for 2-3 days, after which I need to take a few days off. I definitely don't smoke during harvest time as it just makes things worse for me. Best of luck sorting it out. I also know that it's allergy season where I'm at so I don't think that's helping.

This is similar to what is common with woodworkers and cabinetmakers. After years of exposure to wood dust, allergy's would develop. The more resinous woods like pine always were first in aggravating a reaction.
I wonder if you could get allergy shots to help? |

Then trimmed one plant I had in a nutrient-rich swamp with tons of vegetation surrounding it (2 weeks later) and couldn't trim for more than 2 hrs at a time without my throat swelling. I smoked a sample pack from that plant and my throat got really tight... had to get fresh air. Haven't blazed that shit since, might give it to a friend if they don't react to it like I did... :/ Quote:
btw I hope you had a good season! I know we spoke a few times during pre-season Quote:
Just make sure you don't have it, peep the link below and tell me you don't so I feel better LOL. Any kind of fungi inhilation can lead to SERIOUS lung problems. https://www.mayoclinic.com/health/asp...CTION=symptoms Quote:
They did consider making allergy shots for cannabis but it hasn't been put into affect yet... think more research needs to be done / laws need to allow it since it would require a dose of cannabis in the shot itself. Such a good idea though, some day enough people will have the same problem and it'll be done. Just a waiting game! |

That happens to me from some male pollen. I've had some pollen chucking bitches that sent me to the hospital.
