smoking

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 m tn I was sharing a marijuana cigar with a friend, who has had unprotected sex, he was scratching at a pimple and made himself bleed and then wiped his hand on his pants slightly, but then also held the cigar with the same fingers. Is there any way that if any left over blood on his fingers got on the cigar and I inhaled it that i could be exposed to HIV?

Avatar n tn I find that very hard to believe. I think the affects of smoking go away with a certain period of time, so one a month will not "build" up into a problem. I honestly need a doctors opinion on this but maybe some help from the public will be good as well. Please don't post saying that i will get addicted! i know these facts already as iv'e done alot of research on the topic. Don't post saying the kinds of cancer i can get, i know that already.

I tried to skip my smoking habit but seeing anyone smoking in front of me,I cant resist it.What shall i do?pls help me?
Avatar n tn None of the people I was with, seemed to have any cold sores on their mouth, from what I could see. I did have a cigar and drank a lot that night and the food I ate was not the healthiest. I was thinking, that it could just be a canker sore from poor health and the smoking/drinking, but what are the odds, that the canker sore is in the same place, in where I put the hookah pipe in my mouth. Not sure what to think.
Avatar m tn I would rather be working on a project that involves some physical activity. Smoking a good cigar is very relaxing and enjoyable, which would be a real departure from taking these anti-freeze injections. Do you think that would be so bad?
Avatar m tn I do not believe in any way that the cause is the cigarette unless the girls of my contact and other girls with PATM have acquired-nicotine consumed in a different way than the cigar.
Avatar m tn I'm a male 18 year old, and have had hearing loss all my life. I had a hearing test done and they concluded i had a gap in the midrange in my right ear reducing those frequencies by 20 decibels, and suggested a hearing aid. I believe though that it has gotten worse over the past few years, for no obvious reason. The real thing that seems weird is in the same time frame my sense of smell has significantly decreased.
Avatar f tn Upon entering our relationship, i asked him to stop smoking all of it because i have allergies to smoke and another personal reason. He agreed and everything was fine. That was, up until 6 months ago. I found out he still had the occasional cigar and it kind of upset me. We rarely fight, but now it seems that we only fight about him being allowed to smoke. He wants to be able to, despite my feelings about it, and when i don't let him...
Avatar f tn I'm also 8weeks 5days. I smoke too but ever since I have found out I'm pregnant I have cut down a lot. It's really hard to quit. So I leave my lighter and cigar (I smoke black & mildes) at my house while I go to work, up town or anywhere. That way I'm at least not tempted all day, just when I'm home. It's starting to get easier with time to smoke less. I've tried to quit cold Turkey but that doesn't work. I'm now down to around 1/4 of cigar a day.
Avatar f tn it can't be good. what do you get out of smoking it?
Avatar f tn I am a heavy smoker and pretty frequent drinker...I didn't think I was pregnant until today all the pregnancy tests were negative but now my period is five days late and im pretty sure I am pregnant...I stopped smoking today but up until now I was continuing with my normal habits...how much can smoking cigarettes in the first 2-4 weeks affect the baby?
Avatar f tn t do it a lot but once evert few days when the stress starts really getting to me I take a few puffs of a cigar. I don't inhale it either so that might help too. Hopefully I will be able to fully just give it up after I'm over the first trimester!
Avatar f tn t react with pain unless the cigar components react with the symptoms. Also the side-effects of the drug can cause this. UC cures are hard to find and tideous to make. The only way to cure UC is through the modern tamiflu. UC is really part of the hidden virus gene that can mutate into a worse case such as HIV or SARS. Beware of radiational leaks in Japan. The radiation also can cause diseases similar to UC.
Avatar m tn A doctor on his usual morning walk noticed a little old lady sitting on a bench smoking a cigar. Her wrinkled face, frail body and sqinting eyes were lightened by her smile. He walked up to her and said," I couldn't help but notice how happy you look, what is your secret?" "I smoke ten cigars a day," she said . "Before I go to bed I smoke a nice big joint. Apart from that I drink a whole bottle of Jack Daniels every week and eat only junk food.
Avatar f tn No, they don't. Do the stress test. Many people get their first panic attack while high, but you gotta ask yourself, what compelled you to use a recreational drug every day instead of occasionally for fun? That's a question to answer as well.

Avatar m tn Smoking cigars, celebrating and thinking nothing of it cause kinda drunk also, but had a bleeding cut on bottom lip from bad dry weather. Stupidly shared cigar with couple other guys not caring and noticed other guy bleeding from his lips. Theres less than a secong from his mouth to mine so I know blood had to have been shared without drying. Note - He also heavy drug user so assume he could have hiv. If he did have hiv would the blood on cigar getting into my cut pose any risk and why?
Avatar m tn Hi, Smoking really is hard to stop. It took me several attempts. After I quit for good I was still patting my shirt pocket for that pack of Marlboro's for a few months. One time I quit and started again I was feeling great after a week and a buddy of mine's wife had a baby. He gave me a cigar and I smoked it but didn't inhale. That was enough to get me started again!
Avatar m tn Each cigar contains about 9mg of nicotine, but only 1mg enters the body. It is not the primary cause of smoke-related problems, however the tar that create a thick buildup and kills the lung tissue. Generally, a 50–100 mg can be already harmful to the body. You only need to take 1-4 mg a day to get the benefits of nicotine.
