I'm going under the knife in 6 hours, and will be under general anesthesia.
Has anyone ever toked up before surgery? any bad effects?
TIA.

You never know with these things. Although cannabis is the least harmful drug out there (imo), you can never foresee any kind of complications that may arise. Your best bet would be to go into surgery clean and sober, just like the doctors expect. Don't throw the doctors any curveballs

Yeah I've never had any kind of surgery before. Don't know what general anesthesia feels like.
Well 4 and a half hours to go and I'm puffing down my last joint.

i went under the knife 5 times in one year, all were complete knock outs. Wouldnt toke up first, anytime i been down there been heart monitors, people takin your siz and weight, there a guy whos specific role is to figure out how much shit to pump into you to keep ya sleepin, do you want to make his job complicated and possibly not wake up again? they give ya a heavy seditive first normally, it ill do ya just fine! Good luck mate hope it all goes well.

Hey guys, just got back home from the hospital.
I toked about 2 n a half hours surgery, and I'm feeling great!
Woke up from the anesthesia pretty energetic and positive. No nausea, no headaches, no bad effects.
However I will admit that in the form I filled out for the anesthesiologist,It did ask if I smoked "Hachich" (it was in french) and I said yes. The anestheseologist didn't judge me and i think that honestly helped him do his job better and safer.
Man, Marijuana is truly God's gift to Earth.
Thanks for all your feedback and support RUI! best believe this is the first site I'm checking post-op

embarrassing as it is to say, I had a gynecomastia procedure, i.e. removing my man-boobs LOL. It's genetic.
Gotta say, I'm in loads of pain and the bud i have is doing a better job than the codeine.

I've had two children via caeserian section and I was smoking cones right up until I went to the hospital... The reason they dont' like you smoking when undergoing surgery is the cough reflex... If you cough while a surgeon is cutting you, he can make some pretty serious mistakes by slipping. You also bleed more if you're a smoker due to circulation issues, but it depends on whether or not you put tobacco with your MJ...We do here in Australia, so that's bad before surgery....Vape away, right up until they put the anesthetic into your arm...lol...Its a herb, not a drug....

Nothing to be embarrassed about dood.
I'm kinda surprised they only gave you codeine though. You would think this scenario would call for Vicodins or percs.

Yeah it's serious BS. They gave me Co-Dafalgan (500mg paracetamol/30mg codeine) and Mefenamic Acid.
