I accidentally drank from a bottle that had marijuana ashes in it and took a big sip before realizing. I ended up vomiting about 20 times and even though I feel a bit better now, my stomach still hurts. Should I be concerned about swallowing ash? How might this affect my health both short and long term? I'm also really worried that some pieces might still be stuck in my throat. What potential health issues should I be aware of from this?

I'm really struggling with having frequent bowel movements, like 4 to 5 times a day, especially after eating. I used to have heartburn too, but that got better with some meds. Now, it's all about this diarrhea issue. Every time I eat, I have to rush to the washroom several times, and it's really impacting my daily life. I'm embarrassed around friends, can't travel, and find it hard to eat properly. It's unpredictable, and as soon as I feel the urge, I have to go. I recently had some tests done at AIG, and everything seemed okay except for a vitamin D deficiency of 8.6 ngml. Ive been to so many doctors, but I still can't find a solution, and it's really stressing me out. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
