First symptoms started in September 2013, right after I started a new pre-workout supplement. Upon ingesting it, muscle twitching, pulsating headache(not migraine like), extreme fatigue, shortness of breathe, brain fog, jaw pain, muscle fatigue came with it. It took nearly 4 months, 4 long grueling months, to recover from all of these symptoms, as I was tested for all possible neurological diseases(EMG nerve conduction in late December). All came back negative and all my symptoms resolved(resolved in late December) except for the muscle twitching.
Okay, so for the past 5 months (now May already) I have been suffering from stomach and other nervous system problems all stemming from the instant that I smoked marijuana. I smoked approximately 10 times before, started at age 18 and now 20 years old.It wasn't laced for sure, since I was smoking with other friends. I smoked the stuff in December, mainly to stop the muscle twitching. Once I smoked the stuff, and I have to mention that I did swallow two big gulps of it, I began to experience extreme nausea, constant burping, a gurgling stomach, and the urge to go number 2 really really bad. Not to mention an intense burning pain throughout my body and a sense of confusion. I am not a pot head, as I have smoked 10 times since I was 18, and not that new to it either, 20 years old only. Anyways the next day I woke up, I was still overcome with complete nausea and also felt a lump in my throat sensation along with the gurgling. Now I tried going to the bathroom but I couldn't- at all. I also felt extremely soreness in all my muscles, to the point where it was hard even to sit up straight because my back hurt. Really weird because I am an avid weightlifter and never felt this sore. The burning sensations, tingling in my hands, are also still there. Fast forward to today and my symptoms include tingling in my hands, the burning sensations remain, a gurgling stomach, undigested - feathery looking stool in the morning, constipation only during the day with mucus, constant burping, buzzing in my hands, prickly and tingling in my arms and legs. I had every test under the sun- all normal even MRI's of brain and spine. I told my gastro and different neuro about the marijuana, but they were puzzled and didn't even consider the idea that it could be the cause, they just said it was bad and not to do it again. I saw a neuromuscular doctor and he suggested a metabolic myopathy, which I thought was insane because I have no muscle fatigue or simply how the symptoms started. I just need a little sense of direction, and relief from this horrible burning and tingling. Also to make a statement and say that marijuana really isn't for everyone, so don't even try it in the first place!
P.S. gastro did an endoscopy and saw barrett's, also insane because I am physically fit, am black/hispanic, only 20 years old, and no symptoms prior to January!!
