chest pains when high

[KushnotBush420]

Ok im new to this shit and only registered so i can tell you ppl about my prob and get some insight from my fellow stoners. I have been smoking for four years, almost everyday one year than only once or twice a week the past two years. Anyway, lateley when i've been getting stoned i start getting mad chest pains. I feel like theres a knot in my throat and feel it hard to breathe or that im not taking deep enough breaths or even forgetting to breath. Whenever i try to swallow i cant catch a breath and i feel like im choking on my own saliva. i start trippin out and become very aware about everything going on in my body. Different parts of my body will start twitching and i can even feel the blood running through my veins. I feel all gassed up and find it very hard to burp. Ill feel a burp coming up but wont come out and it just kinda gets stuck in my chest and then i feel a little pinch in my back. My chest feels really heavy but at the same time really hollow, its really weird and fucking annoying. I normally feel like this when driving stoned ( yesterday was so bad i pulled over on the freeway got out and took a walk) or when im laying down. This shit sucks and totally kills my high the whole time im paranoid as fuck. It was never like this when i first started smoking but now it happens more often than not. Once in a while it'll happen when sober but only after a huge meal.

These past five weeks i stayed sober for a drug test and also went to the gym almost everyday. i took the test last week, didn't go to the gym last four days then got high yesterday, and the same shit happened. i feel like im not breathing properly and i try to swallow and feel like im choking. Anyway if someone has experienced the same problems i would like to know if you have any idea what it can be. i have a hunch its gastritis but wont know till i see the doc. waiting for your replies. Peace.

ps i also smoke about a pack of cigs a day.

sounds like an allergic reaction. A lot of people are allergic to weed. You could be.

[k420time]

sounds like you could be having anxiety, one of my boys gets that too

he went to the doctor high and told him about the symptoms and the doctor was like quit doing drugs it is fucking with your brain

[Stonergasm]

that sounds incredibly unpleasant. How can you still smoke when that's how you feel? lol

Also, lose the Cigs - a pack a day is not helping your physical health.


Sorry I can't be of more help as to why this is happening, though i would say it has some similarities to that of an allergy attack. Have you been smoking the same weed recently or has it been many different kinds?

If it's been the same like oz or something, it could just be that weed. I am mildly allergic to Jack Herer (itchy red watery eyes and stuffy/runny nose), and perhaps you could be allergic to this strain.

If it is different kinds, you could just have a pollen/plant allergy that is severe since well... weed IS a plant.

It may sound dumb but you could ask your doctor. It's not like they would be shocked to hear a patient is smoking weed- just ask him if that could be an allergic reaction.


Good luck and keep us updated!

I don't get chest pains per say, but when i smoke ALOT, my heart beats alot faster. very fast sometimes. that just lets me know i either smoked really good weed, or my tolerance is low.

[InSchizzo]

Those are allergic symptoms, maybe not directly weed, something you maybe consume everytime, or does this happen right after you take a hit ? Also I suggest you go swim a few days a week , might help your breathing.

I appreciate all the input though it didnt help much but thanks. I've decided I will stop tokin for a few months, start eating healthy, going to the gym more often, and cut down on the cigs and see if that makes getting high as pleasant as it use to be. Like today I ate a lot of crappy food throughout the day and got the same symptoms but just not as much as i do when I'm high.

Also, I forgot to mention this in the original post but I normally get those symptoms after smoking a blunt, with a piece i still get it but not as severe. Bongs and Blunts make me feel the worst. Anyway ill keep you updated, well at least you Stonergasm. Thanks again.
