Tension and Hoarseness, definitely. My voice becomes gravely and it tends to hurt to speak.Only one instance a few weeks ago, I couldn't get fresh air and from what I've been told, I blacked out. That was strangely because of some smells from a Kernels popcorn stand.I apologize for the mis-identified title. I understand the difference now. Thank you for your response!

I see laryngospasm occasionally in my clinical practice, and one is usually unable to breath to the point of turning blue. It occurs when a physical substance tickles your vocal cords: saliva, blood, water while drowning, etc.. not generally fumes. Rarely lasts more then a minute.What you're describing sounds closer to bronchospasm for which you're at high risk: asthma, smoker (yes I know it's e-cig... It doesn't make it harmless : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/29847989/). My advise is to get better control of your asthma depending on the frequency of these symptoms and, well, you know this is coming: stop smoking. For standard cigarettes smokers, it can take 2 months for your body hyperreactivity to return to normal, not sure what the data says for e-cigs.
Exactly. Ive seen a couple cases like this. Id still recommend for OP to have her checked in the ED. Would rather not miss another explanation such as underlying infection and like others have mentioned possibly sepsis. Id suspect an infectious source will need to be ruled out first as it can then be treated with antibiotics and is more lethal. If nothing is identified from labs/imaging maybe further pursue labs to rule out rheumatoid arthritis.
This sounds like it could be mono. It's possible she's septic from various sources but I'd think they would have been ruled out by the clinic you went to.Has she been getting worse or does it seem like she was bad at first and has stayed at that level?What does she doe for work? Has she had any sick contacts?
