What Is The Cause Of Chest Tightness, Blurred Vision, Difficulty Breathing, And Mouth Dryness?

I am a 25 year old male. Was on a trip in Colorado so higher altitude than where I live in TX backpacking/hiking with friends. Was put up to some immature gag to do a cinnamon challenge in which I was to eat a spoonful of cinnamon without drinking any water.It felt like I couldn t get it down and was stuck in my throat and burned in my lungs but I managed to get it down. after I felt like I had occasional tightness in chest and blurred vision and a feeling of not being able to take a complete breath. Also I seem to have much more dryness in my mouth feet and hands than I used to. I went and got a chest x-ray about 2-3 weeks after and nothing showed up but I ve had the symptoms ever since and it s been about a year and a half now. Nothing I can t deal with but just unsure of whether or not it s a real issue of concern. Worth mentioning that I haven t been as physically active as in the past.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It is long being gone since the incidence happened with you, what ever you are feeling now is just because of your bad memory which is still there in fact it has to be forgotten very soon, but you did not, and it harassing you, I would advise you to forget it, nothing bad happened to you within this year, if it was something wrong then you would have faced the consequences of that thing, so just forget it and have nice day.
