Interesting topic... especially because I vape AND for the first time in my life, I have pneumonia.

I use an iolite and was told early on that I could just put kief with the ground bud in the bowl and vape like that, no additional anything to the vaporizer like a screen just for kief use in a vape. I trusted this person, a budtender btw, and ever since I did, I have been coughing, a lot. My coughing got worse and I saw a dr. and was diagnosed with pneumonia.

Now, I am not saying that is why I am sick, but after reading about foreign bodies in the lungs causing bronchitis (which makes total sense), I wonder if that is how it started?

Even with cleaning, can an iolite carry fungus that could be making me sick?

Obviously, since I am so sick right now, I am not vaping or smoking ( hard enough to breathe as is). I just do not want to get this bad again But mmj is a HUGE part of my mobility since I have degenerative disc disease and really bad spinal arthritis along with various anxiety type probs.

Should I stop using my iolite to vape?

DISCLAIMER: I am really sick so if this post does not make sense please realize that is why.
