A member asked:

Had reg stress tst ekg chest xray blood work all normal about 2 months ago.on bp med press under control i do smoke is it safe to say i am ok for now?

YES & NO: You have been lucky so far! You may be "ok for now" but I'm sure you realize that you're going to be "ok" longer if you quit smoking. I know that nicotine is addictive and I know it's hard to quit, but I guarantee you that having a heart attack or emphysema or lung cancer is much much harder. I'm sooo glad that you're "ok for now". NOW is the time to quit.
