What Causes Sweating, Warmness And Sleepy After Smoking?
I smoked on and off for like 10 years. Met my current gf and and since slowed way down.
I know smoke maybe a couple times a month, and sometimes when I do, I get lightheaded, and I get very warm, and start sweating.
I usually have to fall asleep to get over this.
Any idea whats wrong?
I friend said It may be a sign that my body is producing too much/too little insulin, thus diabetes. Like I said, this only sometimes happens, Any idea?

marijuana has some (mild) effects on cardiovascular tone. With the blood vessels dilating, then blood pressure drops. Blood vessels dilating feels like blushing all over and low blood pressure produces lightheaded feelings. Cannot say in your particular case, and a blood pressure cuff would be able to.
