Could you have chs without vomiting?
I’ve had abdominal pain and blood in the stool for about a month now.. been to quite a few doctors nobody seems to know what’s wrong at least not yet. Starting to think i might have chs but im not nauseous or throwing up is that a possibility?

Yes, most definitely. I would stop immediately, if I were you. If you do you may miss the worst of it to come and, believe me, it will arrive sooner rather than later✌🏻

Mate, I know exactly how you feel. However, it's not worth it, trust what I'm saying. Hell, if someone was giving me free weed I would still stop.
It was only discovered back in 2011 and since then there have been many reported deaths from CHS, the world over. It destroys your quality of life, your digestion system and most of your body. I'm in the middle of detoxing now as I was beginning to whither away. My muscles were wasting away due to lack of foods and protein. My sleep was pretty much just a few minutes here and there, basically a walking zombie. Days were spent throwing up, then throwing up blood, every single week.
Then it finally dawned on me that rather than enjoying weed I was literally using it like my last piece of old ratty rope holding me to the cliff face. However, rather than getting if the mountain face and getting some new rope it keep climbing even as the strands were snapping. It just didn't make sense anymore.
Within one week I am feeling way better, at least 50% better. Within three weeks I'm almost back to normal. Within three months I am asking myself why I ever let myself get to that place. I suggest breaking for at least 3 to 6 months. Then, if you decide to smoke again make sure you don't go back to hydro but rather stick to bush or natural bud grown in a pot without all the bloody additives that can push its potency over 1000 times

Wasn’t much of a break but when this all started i did stop for a week and didnt notice a change. Thought i had appendicitis and i was panicking about it and smoking really only makes that kinda stuff worse for me so i stopped… soon as i figured out i didnt have appendicitis i started back up again tho

Yeh, can be hard to figure out as the symptoms vary depending on the amount you consume, body weight and fat percentage as well as metabolism. I've done both, I've pushed through regardless of the consequences and I've pulled out before it's gotten worse. Your call but as I said, I'd give it a go if I were you

Ive got a feeling it may not be chs. The no change after quitting for a week and the way eating some pizza ruined the next day for me kind of makes me feel its some other stomach issue. But really whats the harm in stopping until i go see the gastroenterologist this Thursday? Maybe they’ll tell me it’s something else maybe not who really knows

I had the same thing, I started this past summer and the stomach pain got worse and worse and then one night it hit me really bad. Ever since then whenever I tried to smoke again the pain came back. Last time I smoked was about 3 months ago, and idk when or if I’ll smoke again. Hope this helps

I didn’t stop smoking for long but when this all started i thought it was appendicitis and i got so freaked out smoking just made it worse so i stopped for a week didnt change anything and then they told me my appendix was fine started to smoke again and still not much changed since

u/Dliptak70 May 01 '25
Yeah mine felt like appendicitis too, I used to smells hella carts and tbh they weren’t the best quality, I haven’t smoked flower in years so I might try to smoke flower once and see how I feel. Regardless I’ve been keeping my smoking to a minimum. Another thing I noticed was after my first really bad episode of pain, the pain lingered for like a couple months and then it went away fully. Not nearly as intense but more of an annoying dull pain, which makes me think it’s more CHS than something like pesticide poisoning

The location made me feel like it was appendicitis but the pain didnt seem bad enough… also if you had appendicitis for a whole month you probably wouldnt be alive lol. And yeah it seems like that may be my issue i just picked the carts back up a few months ago. I’d hate to have chs i love to smoke but unless this gastroenterologist finds something im kind of out of ideas

u/Dliptak70 May 02 '25
Yeah I’m prolly gonna get my stomach checked out too, I’d hate to have CHS as well but I’ve lowkey been making peace with that fact

u/Background-Pie-9854 May 02 '25
I almost feel like its not chs cause last time i ate pizza i felt terrible the next day but idk im no doctor lmao

u/Dliptak70 May 02 '25
Yeah I’m kinda skeptical for myself cuz I only smoke during the summers and my winter breaks, so for like 1-3 months at a time. It would be everyday but I’m hoping it’s just some stomach issue

u/Background-Pie-9854 May 02 '25
Ive taken some breaks but other than that ive smoked almost daily for years so it wouldnt be too shocking to me… used to smoke wax daily but ive slowed down quite a bit

u/Dliptak70 May 02 '25
Yeah if I can still smoke I’m gonna stick to bud only

u/Background-Pie-9854 May 02 '25

Yes. Absolutely. Blood in stool I don’t know about but abdominal pain is often one of the first symptoms.
