I have no thyroid due to surgery, and I know that if I didn't take my meds, within 3 weeks I would be in a coma! Having said that, are you sure you don't have some thyroid function? I have read that people allegedly born without thyroid, actually means it is not in the neck but in the undescended ectopic area higher up in the throat.
Avatar f tn t feel negative effects of smoking at 18, the situation at 23 can be different.
Avatar m tn I doubt very much that your BK whoppers had anything to do with your height, and for as bad as smoking is for your health, I doubt it altered your height much at all, if any. I guess, I'm questioning your problem. If it's not your paternity, what is the issue? I'm not trying to be rude, just understand.
Avatar f tn What are the side effects of smoking when pregnant? Did any of u girls smoke when u were pregnant? I'm 16 weeks and trying to quit but it a lot harder than I thought .
Avatar n tn But i stopped for almost a year with no problems. never really a big user. but recently i smoked alot over the past week. and i stopped smoking and drinking all together a day or two later because i was feeling really wierd. i get butterflyes in my stomach, sometimes randomly feel dizzy, disconnected from people and things.. i feel the best when i wake up in the morning and then it kinda starts through out the day.
Avatar m tn However, you could have lung damage from smoking, not evident by these measurements. Do not be falsely assured that smoking has not harmed your lungs, on the basis of these tests. You still have good function. You should do everything in your power to stop smoking and preserve that good function for the years to come.
Avatar f tn I have a close friend who has been addicted to marijuana for a long time, she also smoked during her pregnancy and no they did not test her for it when she gave birth. I don't know much on the effects of marijuana use during pregnancy but I strongly suggest that you look into that for the benefit of the baby. I know that she breastfed for quite a while, continuing to pass the drug onto her child. Our sons are the same age and have been friends since infancy.
Avatar f tn I still continued to smoke for a couple of days, but only a couple of puffs from my husbands cigarette 2-3 times a day, then I looked online about the effects off smoking whilst pregnant and quit straight away! There are times when I would like a cigarette but I care for my unborn baby a million times more than a dirty fag! Honestly the best thing you can do is quit, every time you smoke your babies tiny heartbeat has to beat extremely fast as it struggles for oxygen!

Avatar f tn The liver filters everything that goes into your body. The chemicals from smoking may not get a first pass through the liver as if you'd eaten them but smoking is not liver friendly.
Avatar f tn If you stop smoking, that's the best thing you can do. You are young, you've only smoked a couple of cigarettes and you can reverse the effects if you quit. Good for you for being concerned about it! Be tough and stop smoking now!
Avatar f tn You will have to consider if your weight is a problem, depending on your height, bone structure, amount of muscle, and so on. Ideally, you will stop smoking, limit alcohol, get a proper amount of sleep, and eat healthy foods, cutting sugar and salt intake. Don't get overwhelmed. You have a few things to take care of, but enjoy the challenge and the results .
Avatar f tn Look up some articles if you want to know the effects of smoking. You don't want to put anything into your body tat isn't good for either of you while you are pregnant. I don't know of any doctors who would encouraged you to continue smoking unless you are stressing out more from not smoking.
Avatar n tn Theres a lot of b/s information on the internet, and I'm just wondering if any of this is true. If you google "spinal decompression", many sources tell of incidents where a person will temporarily gain anywhere from a 1/2 inch to 2 inches of height due to spinal decompression. Astronauts in space have cited this phenomenon, claiming 2 inches in temporary increased height due to the lack of gravity compressing their spine.
Avatar f tn People have many different opinions but there are no studys that find anything wrong with it unless you are smoking blunts which have tobacco in it or smoking a large amount daily i have also have drs say it would be ok to take a hit if it helps you eat and stops the nausea
1536705 tn?1324329047 As far as I know there have not been any actual effects found for smoking weed. The literature says the only known effects are the same of that found for smoking cigarettes. Although it just cant be good for mum or baby. She needs to ensure that she is taking in the correct vitamins etc and I dont know how smoking weed effects these thing in your body. Have a chat with her.
Avatar n tn He is especially concerned about height. Everybody in college including Gym are telling him that that will be good for his growth. Your advice? Any harmful effects? My observation is that he does not eat much when he is with me? (His weight? - "small build ", looks 16) Please advise. Thanks.
Avatar f tn I stopped smoking before I got a date for my bypass surgery. Unfortunately for me I will have only six weeks free of cigarette smoking before my surgery. My question is will I being doing any damage to myself if I stillhave the surgery?
Avatar m tn You can talk to his doctor about doing hormonal injections, which can help to increase height. Though make sure you understand the risks and rewards of such a treatment. There are side effects. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Google how smoking effects your baby. One was it increases the risk of sids (sudden infant death syndrome). That alone should be enough for someone to quit but a lot of moms turn a blind eye to the negative side effects. Best of luck quitting! !!
Avatar f tn I was a smoker and stopped straight away i dont even crave anymore and i do feel a lot better for it although ive got to admit i have to watch what i eat as at first i think i ate to give me something to do lol. I googled what effects smoking has on a baby and that was enough to put me off straight away. Im not saying its not going to be hard especially if you have smokers around you but id also ask them to refrain from smoking anywhere near you.
