Avatar n tn Before I was pregnant I vaped instead of smoking, with nicotine. I was wondering if it was okay to vape with no nicotine while pregnant?
Avatar f tn I liked that brand because it actually felt like you were inhaling something.
Avatar m tn Off the top of my head, Ill run off a few of the wonderful things that can happen because of smokeless tobacco. 1. Oral Cancer 2. Esophageal Cancer 3. Stomach Cancer 4. Tooth loss 5. Gum disease/erosion 6. Facial disfigurement because of cancer I mean, that is a pitiful list but the number of chemicals in that stuff is enough to make me want to quit... In fact, today was my quit date. I plan on making this quit for real. I quit before for a few years, then tripped up.
Avatar f tn Hi. I'm just curious in people's opinions of something. I am an ex smoker. No longer have the habit. My child's daycare have been taught that smoking kills people etc.. so move away from people if they're smoking. A lot of parents from the daycare have come in abusing the child care Centre as they're smokers and there young children keep telling them they're going to die.
Avatar f tn Not only is the action of smoking itself is detrimental to the health of the baby, but we do not know how cannabis intake can affect the developing brain.I understand that smoking is extremely addictive, but there are certain things we do for our kid that are very hard, and one of them is being pregnant, taking care of our bodies while pregnant and nursing (and I am not even talking about giving birth!). That is only the start of a difficult life of a parent.
Avatar f tn You should avoid certain chemicals when pregnant,most saloons now,know the dangers of these when pregnant,so have adapted there chemicals for this.but as worriedd612 said if the room is well ventilated should be ok.
Avatar m tn I am still undiagnosed and as it seems will not be any time soon, even if I have a lot of symptoms. What I wanted to ask is, I have read that smoking can cause more often relapsing or going into progressive form of disease. I am ex smoker considering cigarettes (commercial ones which you inhale in lungs), but I occasionally smoke Cuban cigar which you do not inhale but you just puff into your mouth and out. I cannot find anything for them.
Avatar f tn I think its both positive and negative. It teaches the kids the dangers of smoking/second hand smoke and the problems it can cause as well as the result od death. As for the negative, the kids with the smoking patents are now worrying about losing their parent(s) due to the day care. Im an ex smoker myself.
784382 tn?1376931040 s anything wrong with smoking pot, but you still have the act of inhaling something in your lungs everyday which makes it hard to stay quit with cigs. I was a pot smoker too. Quit almost 3mos ago. Smoking pot led me to fail my quit each and every time.
Avatar f tn Hookah smoke contains high levels of toxic compounds, including tar, carbon monoxide, heavy metals and cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogens). In fact, hookah smokers are exposed to more carbon monoxide and smoke than are cigarette smokers. As with cigarette smoking, hookah smoking is linked to lung and oral cancers, heart disease, and other serious illnesses. Hookah smoking delivers about the same amount of nicotine as cigarette smoking, possibly leading to tobacco dependence.
Avatar f tn Ask them if they can start smoking outside or else u may need to find a different place to live thats not good for u or ur baby
Avatar f tn Hello. I've quit smoking for 3 weeks now after 32 years of smoking. I am using the patch and my doctor put me on zyban when I saw her sept 5 because I couldn't stop crying. The crying has gotten better I feel terrible. I think I'm obsessed with my breathing to the point where I feel it all the time. My chest feels tight. I feel myself inhaling all the time. I've been to the emergency room twice now in two weeks. Chest films taken. They put me on high does prednisone for.
Avatar f tn If they are smoking meth and you are there, the smoke is in the air, as you breath, you are inhaling some too and that could be enough to mess up your urine test. If you are a former user, why are you hanging with current users? I'd stay far far away from people still using. Are you pregnant?
Avatar m tn Overweight, large neck circumference, structurally abnormal airway, smoking, alcohol and sleeping pills can be some causes. Losing weight is one of the best things to do, avoid alcohol, smoking and sleeping on to your back. You need to consult a sleep specialist for sleep study assessment. Take care.
Avatar m tn Actually I do have severe neck pain for years on the right side just before the spine enters the skull. That was the main reason why I asked to get an X-Ray done (still waiting...). I didn't think its relevant as the described pain happens during smoking or inhaling fumes (doesn't happen if i close up the nostrils eg.). As I said, it's very hard to describe, i could almost describe it as the inhaled substance is getting inside the head (feels like cold air).
8182713 tn?1419265366 Nope you're not wrong at all!

Avatar f tn it/projects/22009-move The above link shows there are Medical Professionals who can see e-cigs, electronic cigarettes, do have at this point in time to achieve the goal of stopping smoking. Reducing self harm, without causing stress, to name one undesirable effect. Please research for yourself, as there is a lot of scaremongering through lies, by supposed professional people, all because They Want and They Want it Their Way, which DOES Cause Harm.
Avatar f tn after smoking marijuana threw my glass bong , i felt a shortness of breath , rapid heartbeat , rapid breathing but it all stopped shortly after , idk if i was just being anxious or if i have minor pneumothorax , btw i feel fine now and can take deep breaths inhaling and exhaling , my question is when should i get checked out if need be.
Avatar f tn So, here I am, for the probably 4th time tapering off a 8-10/day hydro habit. I am wondering...is this anything like quitting smoking? I smoked for 23 years, and could not imagine life without my "best friends", my cigarettes. I mean...what would I do when the phone rang, when I got in the car, after I was done eating, when I went out, sat next to the pool, etc etc. I remember thinking how will I EVER ENJOY life again without my cigarettes.
Avatar f tn Just in my opinion, it seems like the worst way to try and quit smoking as you are still inhaling nicotine as well as encouraging the hand to mouth habit. I'm glad you're feeling better, but it's likely due to you're smoking again. Even just one cig a day can keep the anxiety and insomnia at bay. I wish you well and we will be here should you need support.
Avatar f tn It can defiantly affect the baby to be around smoking. Even though you aren't the one smoking you are still inhaling the smoke through your nose which isn't good for the baby. The best thing yiu can do is either ask him to not smoke around you or tell him that it hurts the baby when there is smoke he really shouldn't smoke in the house period because the smoke will be in the air just not as bad as it would be if he were next to you.
Avatar f tn Plz don't judge me, I'm trying to quit smoking cigs, is the e cig aka the vapor ones a safe alternative to be winged off?
498656 tn?1213446919 I now have a alt of 218. It was 29 in december. I've never in 3+ yrs of testing been over 60. I am now concerned for liver condition even though all the other lfts (besides 109 ast) are always normal. I had a biopsy 3+ yrs ago showing nothing grade0 stage 0. When I had the biopsy I had a vaso vagus response and blood pressure plummeted 50/30 example. I had the blood test last fall and had a grade 0 stage 0 no inflammation.
10094372 tn?1407761844 VE BEEN BROUGHT ON WORSE BY INHALING GAS OR THE FUMES FROM CANS OF WHIPPED CREAM. I ABUSED THESE FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS IN MY LATE TEENS BEFORE I HAD STOPPED. THIS GAVE ME A BIG HIGH FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND I'D DO THIS SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK BUT NOW I WONDER IF THIS CAUSED MORE PROBLEMS WITH MY SEIZURES. THE SPECIALIST DIDN'T TOUCH ON THIS BUT NOW MY REGULAR NEUROLOGIST HE MAY BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THIS TO SEE IF THE ABUSE MADE IT WORSE.
