Accepted Answer

We simply don't know: about the impact of "weed" or many other plants on the human body.  Given your medical situation you would be prudent not to take the risk of smoking.

Question 8

for what length of time are the effects of weed and alcohol on the brain?

Accepted Answer

Cannabis & etoh: Marijuana's effects usually last from one to three 3 hours. The issues with alcohol depends on how much you drank &  how quickly - because the effect drops and your blood levels drop.

Question 9

if someone has a traumatic brain injury and they drink and smoke weed what are the effects of these habits?

Accepted Answer

Clear thinking - NOT: We know what these do to normal folks - memory problems (perhaps more early on verbal for pot, and visual memory for etoh), but acutely it interferes.  This is usually worse for tbi individuals who can look worse simply by being at higher altitude and lower o2 levels.  Can take 6 months to wash out pot, but alcohol abuse can lead to further permanent damage in tbi survivors/ little to none is best.
