my $.03 (the first 2 are free, you owe me 1)

I take daily asthma medication. I have 2 inhalers, 1 for control, the other for attacks. I smoke 1/4 a week. My asthma was so bad as a child I spent nearly every holiday in the hsopital at least one time.

I will go on the record and say marijuana does not affect my asthma one bit. Cigarrette smoke on the other hand will mess with my lungs for a week. I can feel the effects of 1 cigarette for nearly a week. I get semi-annual breath capacity checks and even while smoking a quarter a week I maintain 95% breath capacity. I've been off the charts when I have been in shape and working out regularly.

When I get sick, I get bronchitis nearly every time, but I can still smoke and do, because it actually relaxes my lungs, acts as a natural expectorant, and helps me clear my lungs of excess phlegm. Without it I would probably not get a decent night sleep ever if I were sick.

I play basketball in a Pro-Am league so I am in decent shape, so that's my... Werd!
Plastic Jesus Reviewed by Plastic Jesus on . ok..i got asthma my mom says the reason why i cough is because i smoke. and she says i cant smoke because i got asthma. but i get the same cough every year, i think shes just looking for an excuse for me not to smoke. the cough and drainage is all in my head its not the chest at all. i live in memphis and the weather here changes pretty much everyday and i think that has a lot to do with it because it always makes my sinuses act up. does anybody have this same problem?? is she right or is she wrong?
