Edibles giving unbearable side effects

Hi I am using cannabis to treat a miserable auto immune condition.

Edibles help a ton but leave me with crippling anxiety in the days after consuming. It also seems to give me week long diarrhoea. I can’t continue with edibles.

I want to try vaping and have just purchased a mighty. I do have sensitive lungs any tips on how to avoid chest infections ect?

Anyone else had the same side effects from edibles and switched to smoking and they go away?
