Feelthy

I use to smoke mad amounts of weed but I can't anymore because it feels like I'm killing myself. It's a horrible thing, I have pot related ambitions in life. It just happened one day. I smoked chronic one day in my car with a friend of mine and out of no where, before the bowl was even finished finished my right ear started ringing. "I... feel weird." I lazily made out those words before my ringing ear got louder and louder and scarier for me as I could associate a pain with the ringing. Then I collapsed. You know how when your body experiences a change in elevation, the sinuses in your head aren't in sync. So you would normally even them out. Either by yawning or contracting and expanding the pressure when you blow or inhale while holding your nose. Sometimes when you do this and I too the pressure goes too far one way. When you blow and expand your sinuses or whatever it is that's being effected, you can feel there's a limit. When I blacked out it felt like I surpassed that limit and my ear like exploded. I fell over and felt like shit. I was unable to drive after that. I was afraid to listen to loud music that night or anything that had to do with my ears. I hesitatated to smoke bud but of course I did and this time it was different. I felt the ringing in both ears but it wasn't bad. A few weeks of this and then another time I almost passed out in my homies' garage. Their dad told me I looked dehydrated. I couldn't see at all really. My friend grabbed me a soda and as I drank it I felt the relief of pressure in my head and clarity in my vision. I was like "Yeah!" to myself in my head because I thought I found the remedy to my problem with pot. Everytime I got high and felt pressure and/or that I was going to pass out I drank water or something. It usually worked for a long time. It stopped though as my problem grew more intense. It's a strange feeling of a different kind of pressure inhabited my body. It feels like my right ear broke and something's flowing through it. Smoke, blood, leakage of some sort or I don't know! It would fog up my head and sometimes it could be considerably painful. Drinking water insures I won't pass out but increases the pressure. It's so uncomfortable. I constantly open my my mouth to yawn and make it not hurt as much. This makes my face sore from straining my jaw. Sometimes it felt like if I just let relax instead of yawning and fighting the pressure that my head would explode again. Lately it's just too intense. I have to give up weed at least for a while. The last two times I've smoked have caused the quickest acting, agonizing, mystery presssure in both ears. It's taking over a day to completely clear the foggy feeling in my head. Just like when I smoked yesterday. It cleared up this morning before I ruined it by smoking a pinner and taking a bong rip. That's not even a large amount of weed. I don't know what to do about it. I also wonder if I've damaged the interior of my head and my brain. "THIS F--KING SUUUCKS!!!" Please any suggestions?

Are you taking other drugs? Prescription, OTC, illegal, alcohol? It could be a number of things, but the best thing to do is a take a marijuana break. Go a couple weeks without smoking. It may not be easy, but try it. I don't know many smokers who have come to regret taking a little time off.

but I had those exact same symptoms one time with a bad inner ear infection!

Every time I caught a buzz, just like you said, I experienced the same thing. Better beat feet to the doctor for an inspection of the ear bones, could get worse.

I made an appointment with my doctor and learned of my ailment and the science behind it. The problem has to do with allergies. It's not a marijuana issue, but a seasonal one. If one has seasonal hay-feaver then they are susceptible to other kinds of allergens. There's this small organ in your throat that's connectected to these tubes that run through your jaw and into your equallibrium. It's easily aggitated by tiny separated particles passing over it as smoke. Any kind of smoke can cause it but bud being so potent intesifies the effect. When the gland is irritated it creates sensations of popping, cracking, ringing, light headedness, and even the feeling of water flowing freely in your head if you drink while it's already triggered. My doctor told me benodryl and allegra won't help. I suggested nasonex and he not only agreed but recommended and perscribed me the medecine.
