Is Seizure Like Shaking After Smoking Weed Serious?

Hi, I have been smoking weed (sometimes mixed with tobacco) for about a year now with no side effect besides what would be considered getting "high." However, twice in the past month, i have smoked bowls, exhaled the smoke, and within about 5 seconds I (according to the people with me when I smoked) i started to shake as If I was having a seizure and pretty much fainted to the ground. This would only last about 10 seconds altogether although I have pretty much no recollection of anything specific happening besides realizing that something werid happened by when I "woke up." Could this just be a bad/laced kind of weed or maybe the specific amount i smoked was too much for my lungs/head? or some sort of allergic reaction?

Rather than trying to second-guess why you are having these particular symptoms, which are a sign of great distress to your body, imagine your question to replace the words "smoking weed" to "smoking weed killer" or "smoking rat poison".

Would you seek an intellectual response or would you just quit?
