A member asked:
If you do marijuana edibles occasionally. for example i have done marijuana edibles about 4 times this year. would that affect any anesthesia i would get for procedures or surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
As long as you have no exposure in the weeks prior to the procedure any residual drug would be at such a low level it would not cause a negative reaction with any of the drugs involved or your healing potential afterward.
