Because your story is indicative of all blunt smokers.

If you guys actually read the article it explains very clearly (not "sounds like") that Barrett's esophagus is caused by stomach acid, not marijuana. There are no Negative clinical side effects of THC (the active ingredient in Cannibas) in your system other than the high feeling you get.*

Speaking about his health scare, Barker said: “They found that I had six ulcers, and I had a condition called Barrett’s esophagus, which is basically from really extreme acid reflux or if you excessively smoked, your esophagus lining becomes pre-cancerous.

This is going to be the most annoying thread to read as this replies keep coming.

If you dont believe me, WebMD it, or google it. THC doesn't cause Barrett's esophogus.

The only thing more pathetic than people over 30 doing drugs are parents doing drugs. Weed is such a lame drug, it's for 14 year olds, At least smoke something tough like meth.

What was the point of your original response if not to argue against what I had said?

Oh I am!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't know he smoked weed. What about the fact that he smokes cigarettes, which is a more frequent and harmful habit?

Well since Barker was quoted saying that excessive smoking could be a cause of this disease, I took it to be true. Not sure if it is, however. I never mentioned THC.

Years of smoking cigarettes did nothing to help this. Anyone saying that he could still play drums have never felt a pain like this in your neck. It's pretty rough.
