I should explain better what it is. For some people not many but for some people after using cannabis for years, 4-6 more times a day. They start getting sick. Sever stomach pain like the stomach is being constantly rung out like a towel . Then chronic vomiting follows. You cant keep food or liquids down when thats gone you just heave stomach bile .The only thing that stops the pain and vomiting is taking a very hot shower or hot bath. Since one is already vomiting the hot shower/bath leads to dehydration and one is soon in the ER with IV to get hydrated. And this happens every few weeks. Unless you live in a state where marijuana is legal doctors really have no clue and you most likely rx with cycling vomiting syndrome BUT only after tests, blood work, upper scope ,colonoscopy and many times removal of gallbladder and if it is still there your appendix. Once you stop using marijuana you stop getting sick. Once you get past the withdrawals you should never start using again because it will start up again. I guess you could say its like becoming allergic to your favorite food or something like that. Yes there is withdrawal from marijuana : craving it, no appetite for some, tense and cant relax, these are the most common insomnia, crazy bad dreams . If any of this sounds familiar especially if hot shower/bath stops the symptoms you should speak with your doctor about possibly having Cannabinoid Hyperemesis . Even if cannabis is not legal in the state your in doctors should help and should keep things confidential without bringing in law enforcement ! I have been going threw ALL this for over 7 years . I am not using and It took close to 2 months to be over most of the withdrawals. I do still have insomnia and weird dreams but it is getting better and better. I hope this explains what Cannabinoid hyperemesis is . If I can help anyone who might have this just let me know. I am here and will gladly talk and support you.
