A member asked:

Why dio i get head aches the morning after smokiing pot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sensitivity: Smoking marijuana results in activation of many brain receptors, and likely in your case activates glutamate which can cause a migraine like event. Simple solution, avoid the weed and likely headaches will depart. You might want to seek some attention from your physician to address all of this.
