Breathing Problems

    Hey, To start off with I was diagnosed with pneumonia back in December and decided to lay off weed for a while due to the intense breathing struggles I had. Fast forward to about a month and a half later, Every-time I smoke I would become aware of my breathing and my chest would get tight. I tried vaping as well but after I get high my breathing problem comes back. It ends up lasting a few days and goes away. I ended up going to a doctor and got my lungs x-rayed and it ended up being normal. So at this point I'am completely oblivious to what the problem is. At this point I've been to scared to smoke more than once a week because of the breathing problems I had back in December.

    Do you get short of breath any other time besides when smoking?

    I have occasional shortness of breath and smoking aggravates it sometimes. ( durp a dur .no shit Sherlock)

    Talk to a Dr.

    Switch to edibles, they are great!

    Get a second opinion if I were you. Maybe edibles are the way for you right now. Glad I got Prevnar 13 at my age!
    Are you art sea level or higher? I am at 4500 ft and Oxygen is thin but you get used to it.

    Sometimes lung problems like pneumonia take a while to completely recover from. Did you have any trouble with SOB before you had the pneumonia? It sounds to me like the smoke is irritating your lungs and causing bronchospasms, it does that to me but I just ignored it as we all have our priorities, eh? If it's too uncomfortable switch to edibles or get an inhaler from your doc. I quit smoking a month or so back because of a different problem but my breathing has greatly improved since.
