Is Anesthesia For CT Scan Safe While On Marijuana For Anxiety?
Hello, my son smokes pot to self medicate himself for anxiety. Despite my disapproval, he has been medicated by doctors for his anxiety and no other medication has helped him. He is having a upper and a lower scope done in the morning followed by a CT scan of his abdomin. Is he going to be safe for the anesthesia???
