I wonder if my family medical history will catch up to me sooner than later. Both my grandmothers died from brain diseases, (1 dementia and 1 Alzheimer's) and my mother died from brain cancer (brain stem cancer and died the day she was diagnosed).
I don't have the best short term memory and when I smoke marijuana it becomes almost annoying that I forget so much so quickly. When I first started smoking marijuana at the age of 20 I would smoke and then I would talk on the phone with my girlfriend when I would hang up I would have to ask about the conversation from him. Or I could work out and he would count but go 1-2-3-4-5-6-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-2-3.... Basically I'd forget the count and he would start over and I wouldn't even know how many reps I really had done and could go on way beyond what I could normally.
After building a tolerance to marijuana my short term memory loss wasn't as bad. Still to this day I wonder if the marijuana and my family medical history have anything to do with one another. Or if there is some science behind whatever happens when the THC alters my brain and memory.
Anyhow, not sure where I was going with this but after reading this forum I've been thinking about my future and now that I'm over 40 years old and my mom died at 50, its on my mind and dont know what to do to prolong my life.
