I'm 14, and I've smoked weed here and there since the summer of 08, i also have asthma, do i have lung cancer?
I started at around June or July. Whenever I do smoke, it would be only once or twice a week at most. I hardly, if ever, smoke anymore since school started in August, do I have lung cancer?

Smoking weed is only for people who can afford losing brain cells. You most definitely can't afford any!

marijuana has almost no carcinogens (cancer causing agents) compared to tobacco smoke, so the chance that you have lung cancer from smoking pot are slim to none. there is still to this day no, i repeat, NO REPORTED DEATHS caused by smoking weed, i think you wil be just fine, as long as you don't start smoking cigs, too

Don't think so buddy. Sounds like you've got yourself a case of the jitters!
9 :
Yes you might. The best thing I can tell you right now is to go tell your parent or guardian exactly what you told us. This is a serious matter. You can die from lung cancer of course. ;)

Well, if you have a tumor in your lungs, yes. Stop smoking weed. If you have asthma, you are just going to make it worse. Smoking anything does serious damage to your body. Smoking weed is a nasty, smelly, stupid habit. Smoking will eventually lead to all sorts of probelms, sooner rather than later in some instances.

No nicotine in weed, but your brain cellzzs start to goezz afer a whilezzzz.
12 :
I dont think there are any chemicals in weed which would begin to develop cancer. So its just basically your lungs getting agitated from the smoke. But unfortunately weed does kill off brain cells and makes you sterile.
13 :
No You have to smoke weed every day for like 3 years to get any cancer from it If u smoke like 4 times a week that okay just don't over due it
14 :

15 :
No you don't have lung cancer, but you are an idiot.
16 :
You have to stop completely if you want to have a chance to live. It is only around 15% chance. Either this or you will die. Take it or leave it.

HAHA YOUR A FU CKIN DUMB A SS.

You should go to a doctor and have a checkup. Some peoples immune system is weak and they get diseases quickly,and some peoples immune system is strong and they dont even get diseases,so if your immune system is strong then the answer is no
19 :
dont do it dont f***** up your lungs and brain dont you know that weed kills your brain cells? seriously
20 :
Have you got severe weight loss, coughing up blood, chest and or back pain, diarrhoea, pain when breathing in or out, no ? then probably not yet, but carry on smoking if you want any of the above delightful symptoms:-)
21 :
Probably not but if you continue you probably will.
22 :
probably not but get checked on since you have asthma i suggest finding a smoke free way of getting high like making pot pastries to make pot pastries just boil your weed in butter for a good amount of time then sit and let harden after that use like regular butter hell you can just eat the butter if you F@%$ING wanted to it would still work.

Marijuana doesn't kill brain cells (on the contrary, it spurs new brain cell growth). http://news.healingwell.com/index.php?p=news1&id=528519 The study that suggested marijuana kills brain cells, came to that conclusion by putting gas masks on monkeys. They were literally suffocating the monkeys with smoke. It's an obvious fact that suffocation will lead to brain cell loss and possibly brain damage. Marijuana doesn't cause cancer. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/05/25/AR2006052501729_pf.html And marijuana can also be beneficial to asthma patients. http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/hemp/medical/tashkin/tashkin1.htm It is impossible to overdose on marijuana as well. http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/mj_overdose.htm There have been no recorded deaths due to marijuana use.
