Throat tightness / closing feel

Hello Im mseerob and Im new to this forum....

I have had asthma all my life I use to smoke when I was 18 years old, but it used to be an on and off thing. I nevered smoked everyday, it would be a few weeks to a few months. The VERY first time I smoke I experienced difficulty swallowing. I went to the doctors few months later and he said there was nothing wrong with it, just gargle with saltwater. So I did and I continued smoking. Then I realized it wasnt going away, I stopped smoking when I was 19, of last November 2004. I was prescribed some green liquid and that didnt work. Saltwater didnt do anything either. So then I was prescribed pencilin and that got me really sick. Before the pencilin my body always felt tired and I was told my body is fighting the infection. I was then prescribed this other medicine at a hopsital and it took 2 weeks that I felt a lot better. 3 months later now Im experiencing throat tightness or I should say closing feel. And it feels stiff and loose and free. So I went to the.......

Throat specalist
Walk in Clinic
Had a blood and Urine Test
Throat swab
X-RAY

And Throughout those test, it all came out fine plus mono negative. My doctor then assumed that it could be anxiety but it couldnt be anxiety because I dont get stressed out to often. So then my doctor has scheluded me to goto get an allergy test.. Do you think Im allegic to pot. Because everything came out fine in the test but Im still experiencing throat tightness/ closing feel, stiffness in the throat. The throat specialist even putted some tube into my nose to examine the inside of my throat and he didnt find anything. Im confused. It even feels weird right now. The upside that I had when I smoke was that I felted calm for a lil while..

I'm not a doctor, and i'll admit I didn't read the whole thing, but maybe your eating something and getting an allergic reaction.

the throat closing up sounds like an allergic reaction....i wouldn't say anxiety. You would know if thats what it was, ya know? That sucks it turns out ur allergic..i can't say i've ever heard of anyone being allergic, however I have met people that can't smoke b/c of anxiety...(they think there throats closing up but its not) like more mental than anything.....does this sound like u? :rolleyes:

oh welcome to the site!! :)

Hey there.......

naturalmystic: I havent ate anything new for the last 2 years. I extremely doubt it was food.

littlesmoker: LOL. Anyways :rolleyes: I dont know if it is mental but I mean the doctors especially the throat specalist checked my throat and it was clear :confused: I talked with my family and they think it is allergies. And my doctor seems to think it could also be mental but then again he said he doesnt know :mad: Im confused and Im upset. I dont smoke anymoe but I could smoke even if I was stressed..

please reply back

I wish I knew what to tell you. If it is mental your (sadly) but probably better off with out it, ya know?

Better without what pot? If that's what your saying I dont care, I stopped November.... No suggestions uhh? that sucks. I mean I dont want to experience this feeling for a long time you know what I mean?

Yes better with out pot if its going to make u feel that way. (throat closing).

dude u might be alergic to weed.i knew sumone that was.

I had that feeling once.
It is because your throat is really dry (Cottonmouth) and it feels like your tongue is swelling up and closing up your airway.
Really it is in your head you are fine and will continue to be.
Just drink all the time i am sure you will be fine.
Just dont think about it when toking.
catch 22 paranoia else.
Its there you think about it-more paranoia,think about it more... just let it go.

I get that when i get paranoid, just stay away from bread and dry shit, get some drink, one time i had it and ate an entire bag of saltines, most horrendous and orgasmic time of my life :)
