Cannabis and Anesthesia

2017-11-13 19:58:42
I will be having a procedure done on my heart for wolf-parkinson-white syndrome next week that will require me to be under anesthesia. I have been smoking cannabis for the majority of last month (October) and part of this month (November) and I wanted to know if taking edible marijuana and smoking marijuana a week before will affect me in anyway during the procedure?
