I seem to have an allergy to either smoke or weed.

I don't really feel any allergic symptoms when I'm smoking the weed but I feel pretty allergic for a whole week after I've smoked it. My nose gets itchy and irritated, my eyes get itchy and red and it all happens in phases so it's not constant, it's a couple of times a day. In the summer I have similar allergies, I have hay fever so it's pretty easy for me to recognize the symptoms, they're almost exactly the same. Seeing as I'm allergic to trees and some plants when it's hot outside it wouldn't be weird for me to be allergic to weed, but I've smoked weed for several years and I didn't have any allergies then, it's only the last year that this has started. I also found it weird that it happens for a whole week after I've smoked it. I also thought it might be because of the smoke seeing as some people are allergic to smoke as well.

Any thoughts?

It is possible to develop allergies over a period of time. http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=c ... +allergies

I would guess its a weed allergy unless other types of smoke from cigarettes and wood fires bother you.
