In What Way Can Passive Meth Smoking Effect Health Conditions?
New neighbors recently moved into the apartment below mine. Strong, noxious odors began creeping into my apartment. I would awaken at 2 a.m. grasping for breath from smells like plastic burning or strong oven cleaner. The smell permeates my apartment even with windows open. My lungs burn/ache. I've never had dealings with meth labs but a friend suspects that's what it might be. What health effects might I suffer from this? The apartment management says that they can do nothing; the police dept says they can do nothing but that I should phone the fire dept next time I smell the strong electrical/plastic burning smell.

In What Way Can Passive Meth Smoking Effect Health Conditions?
Hello. The problem here is not the meth itself but the organic volatile solvents used in making and smoking it. This can cause a chemical bronchitis and you need to see a doctor for that since you may need both an inhaler and a course of prednisone to treat it.
