Are Raised Body Temperature And Black Outs After Smoking Weed A Cause For Concern?
HI, I RECENTLY SMOKED WEED WITH MY FRIENDS. AFTER TEN MINUTES I FELT THAT MY BODY TEMPERATURE WAS RISING, I FELT SOME DYSPHORIA AND I LEANED AGAINST THE WALL. THE LAST THING I REMEMBER WAS A PERSON ASKING ME IF I WAS OK. THEN I COMPLETELY BLACKED OUT, NEXT THING I REMEMBER WAS LYING ON THE FLOOR AND WAKING UP TO PEOPLE ASKING ME IF I M OK. MY FRIENDS TOLD ME LATER THAT I BECAME STIFF, MY BODY WAS STIFF, I NEVER CLOSED MY EYES, MY MOUTH WAS WIDE OPEN, I HAD SOME SORT OF STARE AND I WAS NOT RESPONSIVE.

Hello,
It may be a seizure activity or post synchopal confusion. So weed consumption may elevate the brain signals lead to epileptic discharge in few patients. But better to avoid it and consult with your physician he will examine and take EEG then treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
