Avatar m tn My mom smoked with me and I was 4 weeks early, have asthma, chronic ear infections, and weighed less than 5lbs.

Avatar f tn Patients with hepatitis C patients who smoke may be more likely to develop liver fibrosis. More data needs to be looked at to confirm this result. Alcohol is known to increase the amount of liver damage in patients with chronic hepatitis c. Smoking impacts many body systems and of course increases the risk of a person getting cancer including liver cancer. If a patient needs a liver transplant they will not be able to receive a donors liver if they smoke.

771665 tn?1235155092 Estrogen may stimulate a breast cancer growth (but this may happen over a long period of time) but it will not affect the development of ovarian cancer recurrence..Estrogen along with tamoxifen should protect you from stimulating breast cancer growth. Estrogen does not affect bowel function. I worry that the elevation of the CA 125 might reflect activity with the ovarian cancer. I would recommend repeating the CA 125 and checking the CT scan. please let us know how you are doing.
