Smoking With Asthma

Discussion in 'Smoking Accessories Q&A' started by Tiedyeprincess, Aug 28, 2014.

  1. So I've had asthma since I was a child. Lately it's been way worse, I've Had a consistent cough for 3 months now. Im just getting over bronchitis, I know I shouldn't be smoking while I'm sick and have asthma, but it's gonna happen anyways. I usually hit geebs, bongs and occasionally my snoop dog herbal g pen. The g pen is a vape but it doesn't get me that high, I can't do edibles cause I live at home. What is the best vaporizer or smoking device to use when you have severe asthma?

  2. Doesn't the herbal g pen actually burn the weed? Or are you using oil? 
     
    vaporizer should be the best, but some people don't seem to like them. I'm also asthmatic, but smoking doesn't seem to affect it much, unless i take a massive hit, hehe
     
    Take small hits out of a bong, i heard luke warm water is easier on your throat and bronchi.
     
    And by the way, THC actually sticks to your bronchi and soothes and "opens " them back up (they tighten/let less air flow when you get asthma)
    Also asthma, in certain cases, can be linked to your general well being, as in your life style and also to other illnesses (like skin probs for example)
     
     
    Just take it a bit slower than usual. That works for me :)
     
     
    Oh and i've heard the best of things about the MFLB vape !  
     
    Hope this helps
     
  3. I to have Asthma and I just bought a MFLB it does not bother my Asthma and hits pretty good.

  4. A bong IMO it can help filter out some stuff that might be making your asthma worse, just don't take huge rips, that will probably set it off too

  5. I have read that by using a bong you also breath in water vapour, which is bad, and bong water filters more TCH than tar.
     
    "I can't do edibles cause I live at home"... Oh really, you live at home? Suprise suprise!

    Bong water does not filter THC bro... 
     
    What's wrong with living at your parents? That doesn't mean that you're still a kid.. I lived at my parents the whole summer so I could come back to my hometown, save money, and see them.. Doesn't mean I'm 16 y/o .. 
     
  7. volcano if you bout dat life.
     
  8. I believe that sativas are supposed to be more appropriate for asthma users, as they have more bronchdilation as a result, because of the terpenes. That should help improve your lung function, if you have access to choices. Other than that, yeah, I'd totally go with a Pax or a buddha or something like that. Volcanos make my lips too dry. 
     
  9. Here's where I read it: http://www.maps.org/news-letters/v06n3/06359mj1.html
     
    "Water tends to absorb THC more readily than noxious tars"
     
    And you're right, there's nothing wrong with living with ya parents, I was just pointing out how she said she 'lives at home' as a reason for why she can't make edibles. Everyone lives at home!
     
  10.  
    Tell that to the homeless.
     
  11.  
    Isn't that a study a  bit outdated?  2000? right? 
    I saw a thread on GC about this subject, and I think it was ruled that it doesn't filter THC, could be wrong thou ! 
     
    Oh ok, I missinterpreted what you meant, sorry :)

    Like he said, the herbal g pen isn't a vape. The coil burns your buds, that why you empty out ashes when your done and not ABV.
    Get a real vaporizer and *MOST IMPORTANTLY* start doing cardio. I know ppl hate hearing that, but I've had terrible asthma since I was born. Strengthen your lungs as well as finding an easier way to consume. You'll Thank yourself later in life.

    Look into the extreme q vape or DBV. Fuck the mflb, personally=p

  13. Thc is not water soluble, and if a bong isn't your cup of tea get a vapo

  14. Vaporizer is the best option. you can get a box vape (named after it's shape) that plugs in and provides the best quality vapor most efficiently, or you can get a portable vape like the pax or magic flight launch box. After deciding on vapor quality or portableness, it's up to you to research specific vaporizers and decide on one that best fits your needs and budget
