Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS)

I’m very skeptical of such diagnoses, but I haven’t read enough to properly have an opinion. I guess I need to read some more, including research. I know one person’s anecdotal experience with CHS doesn’t equal proper research done, but sometimes that’s how things start.
 
Same here s62. I've only read about this issue, never known anyone who actually had it. That being said, im not saying that it doesn't exist but there are many things that could be the culprit, not just the thc. Things like, where did he get the pot from? Was it legal weed or not? Legal weed would be safer as they have rules as to what is put on the plant where as some of the illegal weed is grown without a care for the consumer. Also if i found out my kidneys were shutting down and they gave me a CHS diagnosis i would probably stop smoking but thats just me...
 
The article maybe is just written confusingly, but from what I’m gathering, this person kept smoking cannabis after they had been told to stop. Multiple times. Even after multiple hospitalizations.
Also, when they ultimately got sick and died, I thought they were no longer smoking? And how do you die of dehydration outside of the desert or a rave (serious question)? This person puked to death? Couldn’t they have had IV fluids? I know they had kidney failure or whatever, but wasn’t that due to dehydration?
 
I was thinking a lot of the similar things. Also, this was a child? What happened to parenting? A lot of things seemed strange in this scenario to me, but at the same time if an actual doctor told me that it was CHS i would probably listen to them and quit. I'd consider it like an allergic reaction as those can develop for no rhyme or reason it seems and just consider it bad luck and move on with my life.

It seems there are a lot of these stories but no one who has seen it personally. And i know a lot of potheads so that says something!
 
There was a big article on this in leafy about 3 months ago...maybe it sheds more light. Although a few days ago after eating a few grams, I woke up nauseated and ready to hurl...yuck
 
kingfish you say Neem makes the buds taste like shit? How do you know it was the neem? Also did you use it during flower? Meaning did you spray the buds? What was the neem source?
 
alltatup thanks for the link, Ive read that myself before. I wouldn’t use anything in flower if I had to I would just cut the plant and start over. That’s why I asked kingfish when and how he used it. May just be user error.
