can you die from smoking weed if you have asthma?
my friend recently went to the doctor due to her cough, she has had for months and her asthma was acting up. She was having a hard time breathing and had to take 3 breathing treatments before leaving the doctor's office. The doctor told her that her chest was tight and she could die if she continued to smoke. They prescribed her advair and prednisone. If she takes a break.... and feels better like can breath right... is it ok for her to smoke?

Of course the Doctor says quit smoking period, but I have a friend pretty familiar with the medical field, who tells me smoking marijuana is like a bronchiadialator, is this true?
