Regular Member nw2-3 Posted April 6, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted April 6, 2009 I had my HT this weekend, i am not a real smoker, maybe up to 5 cigarettes a week, sometimes 2 weeks none. But when i am a little bit stressed i smoke some. Also short times before during and after the HT. All in all this weekend 6 cigarettes. I did not knew that it is bad, and also the doc did not say anything about it. Can these few cigarettes harm my grafts? I of course stopped immediately when i heard about it. I do a lot of sports too, so oxygen in my body should be high. What do you think??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member latinlotus Posted April 6, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted April 6, 2009 I can't believe your doc let you smoke during the HT. This is the first time i heard about it. One thing for sure, smoking does not help with the healing or growth of the grafts. To what extent, hard to say, but I don't think you should freak out about this since you are a light smoker anyway. ******** I am not a doctor. The opinions and comments are of my own.
