We don't care whether people smoke marijuana. That's their business. However, when someone reports suffering from Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), cannabis consumption becomes a potentially relevant medical consideration. Marijuana can cause dizziness, increased heart rate, and changes in blood pressure, potentially worsening the very symptoms associated with POTS. Could frequent marijuana use have been another contributing factor in Lucy Craig's reported symptoms? We now know she regularly consumed large quantities of cannabis. This raises a legitimate question about whether its possible effects were considered when evaluating her symptoms. After all, marijuana doesn't come with a medical exemption from biology simply because someone already has POTS. HOT TAKE: Did Lucy self diagnose POTS to hide her pot addiction from her Dr. Daddy and Mommy? (Photo credit: @lucyhcraig (IG) posted December 15, 2025: https://www.instagram.com/p/DSRiZEijWa8/)
