Former daily pot smoker began exp allergies.year later found prob from moldy weed.allergies subsided since i quit.longterm issues from daily exposure?

Depends: If you are just allergic to molds and developed asthma, the symptoms should improve after quitting although the asthma may never go away once afflicted. If you had something like hypersensitivity pneumonitis, permanent scarring might have occurred even after quitting. I suggest that you obtain a lung function test ,
