One worry out of the way

Today I found out how smoking has an impact on the rest of my life.  I keep losing my voice so I went to my ENT.  I was diagnosed with Reinki Edema.  In other words swelling of my vocal cords.  He wants me to wait a couple of months to see if I can live with any improvement or I can have laser surgery to remove some the swelling.  Neither will bring my voice back to normal. I know this is a very small Issue and totally happy it was nothing worse but still it is a effect of smoking.  Next I go and see how much damaged I have done to my heart.  i hope all is well
