Brief Answer:
At this time, NO!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear of these symptoms that you have reported and the diagnosis of chronic focal duodenitis.

Cannabis is not yet a documented cause of chronic focal duodenitis. At this time, I will not suggest so either. Cannabis, unless medically advised for specific reasons, is not good for health and I would strongly discourage against continued use.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
