Sensitive lungs

[Flaming Pie]

I just signed a new patient and he wants to be able to smoke. Edibles work great for him but smoking makes him cough.

He has had chemo three times and it has caused the lining of some of his internal organs to get really thin. So im thinking that might cause him to cough easier.

He says it really wrecks his whole body with pain when he coughs.

He wanted to know if there was a way to smoke without irritating his lungs. I suggested long pipes in the freezer, ice bongs, or breathing through the side of his mouth to draw extra cool air.

Are there any special tricks (without having to buy a new piece) that would help him?

I've noticed that even with real clean vaped extract my bronchi buck and tighten after a hit. So I am not super confident. I might be wrong ... kinda hope I am ...

I find hot water bongs more forgiving on my lungs vs cold water that leaves a menthol raspyness

Heat and biproducts of combustion are bad news for sensitive users. Smoking is no way to protect his lungs. A bag vape gives the vapor an opportunity to cool down some.

I use a herb vape, just gotta go slow i.e. take a light hit, wait a minute, take another, etc. Can't take hits like a young person, though I take perverse pleasure knowing they will be in the same boat when my age

So there is no way to smoke after chemo?

smoking may not be the best thing..
i love it for getting high, but for more medical use i normally recommend caps, easy dosage and less peaks and dips..

perhaps vaped concentrate if theyre insisting on smoking.. you can dilute in pg and its not too bad

A link to caps would be awesome.

He just wants a faster delivery option than brownies.

tell him to go to a health store and get some basil pills. 1 pill is equivilant to a jar of dried basil. It's only thing natural known to help rejuvenate lungs

My first hit of the day always feels harsh. To prevent coughing, I just inhale half a breath of fresh air before hitting the bong.

I find the vspe method of a pg blend works best.

Some days i can only hit my vape a few times and wont smoke. I mix half my clearomizer with 2mg**300mg thc** to 2 mg of my 70/30 vape oil. I mix them and using a sub ohm set up in 6-8 hits half most of thay killed.

What is pg?

 

[a senile fungus]

Propylene glycol.

If he's/she not sensitive to alcohol a tincture can work in minutes.

I enjoy a nice alcohol hand rub after trimming.

pg like for ecig as senile said..
a glycerin tincture is a good sublingual .. but these methods just like a topical dont release as much as quickly.
i dont have a linl on hand, i know ive givin directions before

basically just saturate coconut oil with decarbed concentrate... it will get absorbed faster than a brownie or edible

It has to be coconut oil? Then what, he drinks it?

Any fat will work. I am quite partial to lard.

 

[qwizoking]

i normally suggest an mct.. coconut oil is great..
just how its absorbed how much it holds and what the body does with it
well you could.. idk if i would want too, but it will absorb quickly im usually high before i finish filling the caps or baking just by skin contact and licking a spoon or fingers .it will also do nice as a sublingual (promise im sanitary though, thats in a personal setting)


but just fill caps, i usually use size 0 due to some patients ability to swallow or even the act making them queasy...vs like 00 but you know, olay by ear

Alcohol is where it's at for fast absorption, @Singlemalt 's recipe kicks my ass.

Edited: Fast absorption other than smoked.
