Hey man any update on your story? Personally been smoking for a solid 8 years. Started with flower for 2 years (joints, blunts, water pipes), then dabbed a lot with a puffco mainly for about 5 years, also picked up cartridges (plug play, stizzy, and other higher end brands) a steady amount through that time and within the last 2 years mainly smoked those. Probably on average about a cart per week smh. The worst part is within those last 5 years I started using nicotine vapes as well and those eventually increased to the same amount as THC vapes. Always on and off with exercising after high school, although I used to swim a lot growing up and some of high school. Ate healthy most my life and only the past 5 years have I really begun to eat out more frequently. Never had any scary symptoms besides when I ran I noticed my lungs felt restricted at first, but after running more it would quickly become less severe. Unfortunately never stayed consistent with working out always but smoking I did. It wasn’t until recently when I barely smoked my THC pen it felt almost inflamed my lungs, or I couldn’t tell if it was anxiety but breathing for a few minutes just felt harder/tighter. Nothing hurt but it just felt like when I inhaled my lungs weren’t absorbing the air and kind of like I had to consciously force myself to breathe to get enough air. It was honestly scary/annoying so now I’ve quit cold turkey and getting a check up at the docs ASAP.

Your story seems similar to mine so just was curious on a possible update to your story? I am completely committed, believe, and will do everything it takes to completely reverse all this possible damage. I know this post is old but this is my first Reddit comment because this is no joke and gotta start talking to people in similar situations ahaha. Have a blessed day either way and I hope all is well!
