In Reference To Marijuana

Can you do edibles instead? My friend ended up going that route, even though smoking was quicker, the Syrup she took was easier.

Does anyone have any insight on edibles causing dumping syndrome?

You can make your own or buy no/low sugar versions. Only thing required in an edible is oil since THC is oil soluble. So if you can eat a small candy, cookie or brownie with no issues, then you shouldn't have any issues with *any* edibles. Normally edibles are fairly small.

I've eaten some store-bought edibles (chocolate or Gummy bears) and they didn't cause dumping, most likely due to how small the portion sizes were. I ate them to relieve nausea and joint pain; did not get the munchies.

Thanks for info Matt! I'm only a few weeks post op so I'm not even there yet but I wasn't planning on being able to eat candy for awhile due to dumping syndrome.

If you get hard candies, you shouldn't get any dumping at all given the small amount of sugar and the fact that you break down and absorb a good portion of things in your mouth while sucking on the candy.
