Recurring Sharp Chest Pain After Smoking Weed. Heart Check Up And X-ray Normal. Allergy?

Hi! I have been smoking weed for the last 3 years and smoking too. Up until recently , everything was fine. Some 4 months back, one day, suddenly i felt this sharp pain on the left hand side of my chest after smoking weed. I had a complete check of heart and found everyhting to be ok. Even the X-ray was completely fine. This pain occurs only when i smoke weed and not when i smoke.Is it some allergy ? Thanks!

Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
FROM YOUR HISTORY IT IS CLEAR THAT YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO WEED
BECAUSE IT ONLY OCCURS WHEN YOU SMOKE WEED
IF YOU WANT TO GET CONFIRMED YOU CAN GET SKIN TOUCH TESTS FOR PARTICULAR WEED YOU ARE SMOKING
THE ANSWER WILL BE TO ELIMINATE IT AS THIS WILL CAUSE INCREASE OF SYMPTOMPS WHEN YOU CONTINUE WITH THIS
THE ALLERGY CAN AFFECT ANY ORGAN OR SYSTEM BUT ALL OTHERS TESTS ARE NORMAL SO AFFECTING ONLY THE NERVE SUPLLYING THE RT HAND SIDE OF THE CHEST
