nightmare scenario to me
getting something else wrong with me that makes smoking a jiont impossible
hell no just shoot me now i think joking with my fear

never had the pleasure of full blown pnumonia ,but have had one nasty upper respitory infection once when in basic trianing at ft dix nj.was feb minus who knows degrees out ,worse bug like illness i ever had ,truly thought i d meet the grim reaper then and felt so bad i think i would have willingly shook his hand to get it over with
life felt like staying in my body though im still here ,i would have gladly gave up the ghost so to speak laying there sick,
in fact i tried to light a cig and passed out coughing knocked my head on the wall ect.
anyway
i feel for ya with lung problems,thats some shit to deal with,
when i drywalled houses for a living i had dust in my lungs too,would hack up crap
docs once thought i had spots on my lungs,in 1993.
but they cleared after i stopped the drywall work by 1995
even the docs said i had good lungs and for a smoker had great lungs
and i smoked cigs and jiont the entire time
i have great lung capacity,
ya ever see or take a test where ya blow in the thing and float a ball so high so long and it tells them info on ya capacity,well i have great outgoing
but i cant really inhail my way out of a paper bag lol
and running , no endurance
but then agian running never was my thing other than short distances
from home plate to home plate on a bunt if i could ect...
good luck with ya health
peace
