Seizures and Smoking Weed?

[candy201]

I have had seizures since I was 12 years old. I'm 18 now. I have also been smoking pot since age 15. Just lately I have been feelings like I'm not here and falling to the floor because I'm so dizzy. I feel like I'm dying. It depends on how much I smoke though. I weigh 120 pounds and I'm 5'6.

This is a scary feeling. Yes,I'm medicated for my seizures, I take Lamictal. And Celexa for Depression.

I'm needing answers right away.

ginger has a very good point about marijuana not mixing well with anything else. most of all meds that deal with seizures, ive had epilepsy for the same amount of time as you have and even the smell of it makes me get sick, ive smoked in the past and have had nothing but bad results except when i was already having seizures. For some reason it makes me stop having seizures and the exact opposite if im not having seizures... weird but I would personally take her advice on this matter if I were you Candy.

I don't want to dismiss Marijuana in a blind prejudice because I believe it could be good medicine for certain things, if used correctly.
But it almost certainly does NOT mix with other drugs, and doesn't even mix well with alcohol. So start today....leave it out. If you are taking meds for your seizures, don't use marijuana.
