I have possible sarcoidosis, am having alot of muscle cramps and tics. Have found that a very small amount of canabis is easing this better than diazipam, without the side affects, how ever all my lymph nodes around my neck are swollen, they are responding to antibiotics but it keeps coming back, would the cannabis be causing this? I have stopped for a week and there was no change, would stopping for longer stop the swelling?
Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. No, cannabis never causes such a lymph node swelling, but it is the compound coming under narcotics. It is not advised to take it. Sarcoidosis which you are suspecting may cause such a swelling and can pose a problem like swelling in lymph nodes in neck, swollen skin etc. I advise you to diagnose first yourself for the acidosis further management can be possible thereafter. Lymph node biopsy can be helpful for microscopic diagnosis. Diazepam can be used for sleeplessness. But it is the substance categorized under the Chat Doctor.
