[|Human|] Hi. I have cardiomyopathy caused by an infection. I was diagnosed 6 years ago. At the time I was diagnosed my EF was 20. Since I ve been in my meds my EF is now 35-40. I also have type 2 diabetes. My sugar levels have been a lot higher as of late. I have neuropathy in my feet and gabapentin is no longer helping. I have also developed chronic back pain and pain meds from my doctor are not helping. My question to you is can I smoke medical marijuana for my neuropathy and back pain with my cardiomyopathy?
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. You are suffering from many chronic diseases. You should understand and must have been told by your treating physician as well that smoking anything is going to complicate things.It's not whether you can take marijuana by other means as may be regulated in your own country and as advised by your physician. Marijuana in itself is not contraindicated for your case but smoking it is absolute contraindication. My advice to you would be, if the laws of the land permit, you consult the physician and ask him if he can prescribe it to in any other form. Hope this helps.
