I'm a little bit nervous with all of the latest news about this mysterious lung disease. To make matters worse, I've had some mild chest pain since Thursday.
I'm a pretty heavy vaper. 6mg VapeWild juice is my go to and I use a Kayfun Lite 2019. MTL vaper, low wattage (12w usually)
I also vape a THC cartridge nightly before bed. If something is going on with my body, I think this is the likely culprit. I'm not in a recreational state, so my cartridges are black market. From what I've read, it looks like this HoneyCut product contains Vitamin E acetate. Maybe it's in my cartridges?
Since Thursday, I've had a slight tightness / pain in my chest. It hasn't gotten worse, but it also hasn't subsided. I've stopped using the THC pen. And I've cut down on my vaping a good amount, but haven't stopped (I'm an ex-smoker, it'll be tough for me to stop!).
What should I do? Should I make an appointment with a pulmonologist and have my lungs scanned? Should I make an appointment with my regular physician? Should I go to the ER immediately?
I've read that the symptoms people have had typically start mild and progress over time to the point of difficulty breathing. I feel like I'm able to breathe pretty normally, but the lingering chest pain is scaring me. I know there have been a few deaths, but what about the other several hundred cases? Have people been treated in the hospital and then released? What sort of treatments have doctors been using? How is it diagnosed? If I go to a doctor, should I bring my THC cartridge and e-juice? I haven't found a lot of this information in my research.
Thank you,
