Is Smoking Marijuana Advisable After Undergoing Bypass Surgery?

hello, so my friend recently had a heart attack and triple bypass surgery and he has started to feel better and wants to have a marijuana edible. I don't know if this is a really good idea, or a really bad idea because I don't know if his heart will start beating faster or slower.

its not at all advisable for him and she should strictly avoid it. If he is not able control his craving it's better to visit nearby de-addiction centre. Also he should avoid other kind of addiction like smoking and all
