Wolff Parkinson White Syndrome

If a cardiologist said it's okay to do so, why do you need a bunch of stoners to say it is.

 

I'm Granny, and I'm a cannabis fanatic who reads more medical studies than most doctors, and about as close to a doctor as you are going to find at GC.

First off, hon, I want you consider the fact that you are asking a bunch of stoners for advice about a medical condition. Is this really the best place to look? If you are THAT worried, get a 2nd opinion. I would suggest a nurse practitioner- they tend to know more about cannabis than the doctors.

Secondly, are you buying online? There is a LOT of mislabeling of CBD - a few have even been found to contain actually dangerous drugs.

So, it is possible that you might be getting something besides CBD in what you are taking. Try switching brands to see if that helps. Find a site like this (there's a few out there) CBD Oil Reviews | CBD Examine , and check the brands out before buying.

Unfortunately, there are no studies of the effect of CBD on people with your medical condition, but there are studies on CBD and its effects on the heart. Here's one of the most recent ones-

The Effects of Cannabidiol, a Non-Intoxicating Compound of Cannabis, on the Cardiovascular System in Health and Disease. (Poland) (full – 2020) The Effects of Cannabidiol, a Non-Intoxicating Compound of Cannabis, on the Cardiovascular System in Health and Disease

To conclude, under physiological conditions, CBD has minimal impact on the cardiovascular system. Therefore, it does not carry an increased cardiovascular risk, such as THC [36]. In addition, CBD can attenuate some THC-induced effects in cardiovascular system. In rabbits, THC (3 mg/kg) and CBD (25 mg/kg) given alone (i.v.) decreased HR by about 40–50% and 10–20%, respectively. However, pretreatment with CBD (25 mg/kg) reduced magnitude and duration of THC-induced bradycardia [103]. In humans, vaporized THC (8 mg) led to an intoxication and tachycardia. Low doses of CBD (4 mg) when combined with THC enhanced its intoxicating effects (but did not influence increase in HR), while high doses of CBD (400 mg) attenuated both THC-induced intoxication and tachycardia [7]. Thus, proportions of THC and CBD might be essential for protective influence of CBD on cardiovascular effects caused by THC. In another study, oral CBD (200, 400 and 800 mg) does not alter the subjective, reinforcing and cardiovascular effects of smoked cannabis (1/2 of cigarette containing ~800 mg of cannabis; 5.3–5.8% THC) [93]. CBD (1 mg/kg) and THC (0.5 mg/kg) mixture (p.o.) did not prevent tachycardia (in contrast to anxiety and other marijuana-like effects) induced by THC given alone (0.5 mg/kg; p.o.) in humans [77]. In a clinical study with THC (5 and 15 mg), and low (5.4 mg THC, 5.0 mg CBD) and high (16.2 mg THC, 15.0 mg CBD) doses of Sativex® no significant CBD-induced modulation of tachycardia and other physiological effects evoked by THC was observed [111]. On the other hand, CBD at equimolar consternations diminished THC-induced increase of HR, and decrease of pulse pressure and coronary blood flow in isolated rat hearts [110].

Lastly, I encourage you to do your own research, I've even done a lot of the work for you by gathering studies on just about everything related to cannabis and the endocannabinoid system. Here's where you can find my "Granny Storm Crow's List" New January 2021 Granny's List . You will want to look for the "HEART/ CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECTS" section in the "Latest" segment.

Consider learning the "Mindfulness Technique". It's a great breathing exercise that you can employ after you imbibe.

 

If you're not a doctor, you're not a doctor, your google searches don't make you anybody..

 

I think some people don't bother to read, sorry.

 

Marijuana increases your Heart rate it's normal dude.

 

THC does tend to raise your HR a bit. I've had problems with tachycardia in the past (180+ HR without smoking). If you feel it's to the point that it's unsafe, don't do it. Use your own judgement.
