Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Marijuana use can lead to abdominal pain by increasing acidity and by causing abdominal muscle spasm. Marijuana use also causes anxiety, paranoia and increase heart beat which also explain many of your symptoms.

It is better to stop its use. If it is difficult to stop marijuana by himself then you can take help of nearby psychiatrist.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
