kyllfalcon 768 Posted February 22, 2013 No, one can't use that type of vaporizer for vaping weed. It's a totally different appliance. Google marijunana vaporizer. Well known brands are Volcano, Silver Surfer, Da Buddha, Iolite, Pax, Da Vinci. There are dozens of others. Some require electricity, and these are your bigger in-home models. Some are battery operated, and these are your smaller portable models. All of them are expensive compared to just smoking, but it's worth the investment to save yourself from the carcinogens. 1 AnuMee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am just scratching my head over this. Not condoning you use ( as it is legal in my state of WA now), but maybe another type of forum would be better for this topic than VST.

PeacockMama 119 Posted February 22, 2013 @fiddleman ppl are genuinely concerned about the effects of smoking if you've have vgs surgery. As for me, I get caveman sized munchies so I came looking to see how the munchies effect your sleeve, or vice versa. Also, some ppl suggest using it to help with the pain and anxiety of surgery for the first few weeks or whatever. It seems bogus but it really is a relevant topic.

kyllfalcon 768 Posted February 22, 2013 I believe the original poster asked about using weed in conjunction with being sleeved. I also believe it is no different than asking about alcohol or sex or exercise. If one is going to use weed let's encourage them to do it in the healthiest manner, just as we would advise eating and drinking in moderation. There are lots of subforums, subgroups, threads unrelated to vsg on this site, such as gay/lesbian, Christian, men's room (where I believe this thread is). 3 RebecaSparkles, Emarie07 and anniemac reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe that most doctors have asked patients to give up smoking for the surgery. Mine also said to not smoke afterwards because of ulcers, etc. Maybe it would be a good idea just to follow the advice of the doctor as he has your well being in mind when setting up the "lifestyle" rules. I am aware that in spite of doctor advice, people are going to do it anyways for whatever their reason so, yes, it is a good idea to offer advice that will prevent said smoker from damaging themselves. Sorry if I missed that point above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
