I smoked weed 4 days before for thw first time. Feeling dizzy and watching fuzzy while studying since then. And most importantly, I'm having constipation since then. Which is very rare to me. I know it's opposite. But please help.

It is the opposite with me. I get constipated when I smoke weed or take edibles. I've experimented with eating certain foods, removing allergens from my diet, exercising, etc. The common denominator is the cannabis. It's always the cannabis. Maybe there is something deeper in play, but weed always makes it worse for me. I started the process of getting this checked out medically so I will come back with updates.

@@kartarsinghmatharu I spoke to my doctor about it and he said it would be expensive to do an allergy test for everything. So he suggested I just stop smoking and eating edibles and also cut out diary, wheat, added sugars, and overly processed foods. And then introduce them back slowly and see what my body reacts to. I started with wheat the first week and I was fine. Dairy the second week and I got gassy with things like eggs and whole milk (but never bloated). Sugar the third week and that’s when things went bad again. I had some orange juice and bloated almost instantly. Same thing happened when I had a couple Oreos. Basically anything I had with a lot of sugar I would react badly too so I just stopped eating things with added sugar. 4th week I started smoking weed and I was fine until 2-3 days later I started to bloat so bad my stomach was as hard as a rock and I would be constipated for days. Fast forward to today. I don’t smoke a lot anymore. When I do I’m fine if I take like one hit, but anymore than that and it’s starts getting bad again. It’s worse with edibles so I’ve stopped those completely. I don’t drink sugary drinks (unless it’s alcohol which I do get bloated from sometimes) only water and coffee. I still eat eggs and cheese, but replace the whole milk with almond or oat milk. I still eat everything wheat/grains. I eat a lot of vegetables now and whenever I want something sweet I eat fruit. Haha, this was long but to sum it all up- weed is the main culprit and eating overly processed foods/added sugars does not help at all either. Both on their own are bad for me. Hope this helps.
