Possible anaphylaxis from Marijuana ?

I’m not a heavy user mostly used for sleep or at night in general and I mostly would use edibles, I bought a pen a few days ago for a buddy but I ended up with it, I had used it 3 or 4 times before no issue then one night I decided to use it, 25 min later I’m sitting down and I start having a little trouble breathing on my right side. Within seconds I get lightheaded and dizzy with cold sweats and my chest tightens up I stood up thinking I might pass out, I felt something was terribly wrong and due to also being high I started having a panic attack. Had 911 dialed and I should’ve called but after some digging most things said to try a rescue inhaler, 2 puffs and 30 mins later symptoms slowly dissipated. It was the worst experience of my life, the following 2 days my whole ribcage/sternum was sore/ached. Saw my doctor and she seems absolutely certain I was in anaphylactic shock and the inhaler saved me. Has anyone had this experience and what was the consensus ?
