Pretty scuffed. Cliff notes:

  • patient presents to hospital reporting agony in tummy
  • doctor finds out he uses cannabis
  • diagnoses with cannabis hyperemesis syndrome (some people after heavy use suddenly develop persistent nausea, recently identified, rare and is a diagnosis of exclusion)
  • patient is sent home
  • patient dies due to severe stomach ulcers

Seems pretty concerning to me.
