For anyone who has heard me complain about how much I get sick this and that. Well, I found out why. But, first let me say that smoking smothers everything. You dont really know your body until you quit smoking. When I smoked, everything was blamed on smoking..."oh i get sick easy cause my immune system sux..im a smoker.." ..."oh i prolly have that blood come up with my sore throat when I am sick bc I am aggravating it by smoking."....This was me with everything! Well, 4 1/2 months after quitting...I thought to myself, "Why am I still getting sick all the time?" I went to the Dr. I have found out I am horribly allergic to dust and cats and have allergic rhinitis. I have to give myself shots twice a week, among other things like trying to make my house a bubble to live in. My unknown allergies have been the reason for my constant infections due to mucous blocks,ect. And the blood was from my allergies as well. I didn't really have the "usual" symptoms of sneezing, itchy this n that. I had blood and constant colds. I love not smoking, and this is one more reason why. No longer can I blow things off due to smoking. Let me just say, I Hate smoking. And p.s. my bf has not smoked since the last time I busted him upside the head several months ago. So, to anyone of u who say that doesnt work. Bullshit. It does work on certain ppl.
