Well i as i said last week ive been going to an ear nose and throat guy, scared to death i had throat cancer or at least a tumor. I went back today after the rest of my test results came in and the results say that my throat was just raw from to much smoking, it is much better now that im about 12 days off the 420 but i do have early stages of emphysema which killed my grandfather. True smoking cigs i would have gotten it anyway but the 420 made what was a pack a day habit closer to 3 packs a day in terms of actual tar and nicotine consumed. He pretty much told me today that if i never take a breath of smoke for the rest of my life ill never see 60 yrs old. s o yes i do attribute my advanced condition at an early age to 420 consumption. My uncle is pushing 90 , smokes a a pack a day and has no problems.. Most all my friends who smoked with me in early years and are my age are having simular problems and a girl i grew up with died late last year of lung cancer. I truly believe that the reason we are seeing more people dying of it at an earlier age is the results of the added torture to our bodies of smoking weed and cigarettes.
