I had a heart ablation about 2 years ago almost 3 and i smoke marijuana just about every night. does this harm my heart in any way? should i stop?

Marijuana is a: good thing to stop using, not from a moral point of view. See the work of Daniel Amen, MD, and the brain scans of those who use it. Clinically I see pts. who become paranoid when using it. If you are anxious or want to relax consider meditation, yoga, or exercise. Peace and good health.
