For a growing number of heavy cannabis users, relaxation has turned into a recurring medical nightmare.
Cannabis Hyperemesis Syndrome creeps in slowly: years of regular use,
then sudden waves of unbearable stomach pain, nonstop vomiting, and desperate hot
showers that only briefly dull the agony. Many patients bounce between home and the ER, convinced
it’s food poisoning, the flu, anything but the very drug they believed was safe.
Doctors warn that CHS doesn’t care about your politics on legalization, your age, or your intentions.
It is brutally simple: for those vulnerable to it, continued cannabis use means the torment returns,
often worse each time. The only real cure is to quit completely,
a truth many resist until they’re begging for relief on a hospital bed. In a world racing to normalize weed,
CHS stands as a stark reminder that “natural” doesn’t always mean harmless.
