Does THC Injection Through Marijuana Vaporizer Cause Complication In LPNPD Surgery?
My son will be having LPNPD surgery next Friday. He uses a marijuana vaporizer to ingest THC daily. He told his surgeon he used to smoke marijuana but didn't tell him he still uses it via a vaporizer. Will it be safe to go into surgery if he has THC in his system?
