Never Underestimate the power of Cannabis

I used to smoke green for years as much as i could and have the best times of my life.
Until i quit... 2 weeks later took a medium sized bong load and ended up in the hospital with Tachycardia (rapid heart beat) of around 150 BPM for over an hour.
it really negativity effected my life & dampened my highs since and just wanted to warn others to always compensate dosage with tolerance..

Sucks to hear man. Bongs can get quite intense sometimes.
My heart occasionally gets rapid when I smoke even after a 24hr break, but some water and a breathing exercise always calms it down. Taking small hits can go a long way.

What did the doctors say to you? Do you plan on trying it out again?
Good thing i was with friends or i would have been in the hospital three times.
first time this happened, and also the first time i smoked marijuana i had smoked an entire joint of some dense dark green bud that was mids. I bet i smoked a little less than a gram to myself with 0 tolerance. I had smoked it outside. Then put it out went upstairs slowly laid down on my bed, and my heart was racing. I ended up pacing downstairs thinking i was died sipping on a cold water bottle, then took a hot shower. So about an hour after that i was in my bed with a normal heartbeat and went to sleep. No high whatsoever just Tachycardia.
So the second time this happened to me, i smoking a joint of some somewhat high quality bud i had little tolerance but smoked several big hits from a joint. My heart was racing, and i thought i was going to die. I had a tingling sensation in my chest also. (which could possibly be from anxiety) It lasted about 20 minutes, if even that.
third time this happened i also had little tolerance. I was a bit anxious before hand, so i do not know if this contributed. I had smoked from a waterfall bong made from an average water bottle. Filled up the chamber and took the whole hit and held it in for a second or two. I exhaled slowly and coughed a bit. I stood up and heart was pounding hard and fast, and i had that tingling feeling accompanied by a pressure in the center of my chest again i think was from anxiety. I took an aspirin because i thought i was going to die (not sure if this helped anything) And i also drank some gatorade and sat down. I burped and then my heart rate slowly went down to normal. Probably after about 20 min. Not sure about how long either of these lasted. But i was blazed afterwards. This time it happened, i have not smoked since because i was scared this would happen again. But i plan on getting an indica soon and just taking a hit of a joint, while on a xannax.

Thanks me too, I Smoked half a Purple Indica joint and had a good time mixing music so i smoked the other half.
Its good to have some tolerance again, I'm certainly not getting as intense physical effects anymore.

Glad to hear.
I've always been a little prone to depression and anxiety. I used to hate weed in my early 20s I hated it. Doesn't happen now. So maybe you'll grow out of it.

For a 50-year-old baby boomer without other risk factors, like high blood pressure or high cholesterol, the absolute risk of having a heart attack in the crucial first hour after smoking marijuana is one in 100,000, he says.

If your heart starts racing just try to do something to distract yourself like cooking or washing the dishes or something. No need to freak-out and go to the hospital. You're just panicky, you're not going to die. It wears off after about 15 minutes usually, two hours at the worst.

At the time of the incident i was floored,
it was just too fast to possibly think of anything els if lying down let alone standing. plus i was just plain freaked cause it has never happened before and it wasnt slowing down.
but if this never happened id be saying the same thing as you.

My Canadian friend was in BC and called 911 because he got so upset when he was stoned. The paramedics came by and laughed at him. In the wrong states in America that could turn out a lot worse.

My buddy smoked a blunt and ended up calling 911, convinced himself he was dying. By the time the ambulance showed up he was fine. Pretty embarrassing for everyone involved.

Unless i was on the floor in agonizing pain, i do not think i would call 911. I think the only person that i have heard have SERIOUS trouble from marijuana would be, Wiccan_seeker, and he still smokes weed sometimes.
