All side effects reported are rather weak side effects. My grandfather used to smoke weed for decades and he lived till well over 80 years old. No mental issues either -- his mind was sharp as a 20 year old.

Well my grandpa has artritis, a stoma bag, neurological pain in his legs above all, type 2 diabetes, anemia, a untreatable cancer and skin cancer just to mention the worst ones. I'm more scared he will have side effects that would increase his pain or that any medications he takes might be dangerous in combo with cannabis.

It's illegal where I live so I can't really consult a professional.

My grandfather had diabetes and lost both his legs. He took a wide variety of meds for all sorts of stuff, but he had never any issues when combining it all with weed. Weed is illegal here too, but who cares when you're in pain IMO.

I would strongly recommend consulting his doctor about it. His doctor will understand the suffering your grandfather is going through and will let you know if weed will affect him badly in any way with the meds he's taking.
