im a very chroinic marijuana smoker... no pun intended bahaha.... but u see i think i may have contracted HIV about a year or so ago and since then ive smoked tons of marijuana about once every day since then? i could be exagerating but around there who knows... Ive never been sick since then and im 100% positive bout taht because ive been worrying and checking ever since i thought i was expose but i mean ive been havin all sorts of crazy symptoms.... abdominal pains possibly swollen lymph nodes? not quite sure what swollen is but i can feel real little balls in my neck only like 2 i can find tho... theyre pretty tiny tip of my tongue has been real tingly kinda feels like its burnt... and also have had feet pains and joint pains and muscle pains, could this be cause from the marijuana... and if i did have HIV shouldnt i have already gotten sick due to all the weed i smoke? very confused someone who knows alot bout this please respond thaaaaaaaaaaaanks!

you sound blazed. just because you have HIV doesn't mean you get sick all the time. i smoke a lot of weed too, and i don't think it really has that much of an effect on your immune system. what you need to do is GO GET TESTED.

i know but if i did have HIV what kind of effects would the weed have on it?

nothing. a lot of AIDS patients, espeically in CA, are given cannabis cards so they can grow it and legally smoke it, since it takes away the nausea associated with antiviral medications. weed is one of those things that is pretty safe to smoke no matter what sorta disease you have :)
