Cigarette and type1 diabetes

Anitaz's profile photo   07/11/2015 3:53 a.m.

Since I started with this debacle of my pancreas to the DT1 I smoked again: I not only smoked again, I can smoke 5 cigarettes in a row in a moment of crying ,,,,,, (I would not be taking my "debut" very well:X)

The question is obviously the cigarette does not go with anything and less with diabetes, but specifically what is the greatest risk associated with smoking?In the first moments of the disease, do not it harm it if I leave it later?Or can the damage occur from the beginning?The diabetologist did not seem very worried when I told him that he was smoking a lot ,,,,

Thank you!!

Hi Anitaz.Well, you just have to see me.Tobacco directly affects the cardiovascular system, both micro and macro.Diabetes also Diabetex has a direct and very strong incidence on the circulatory system.You are doubling the risk of having a vascular accident at all levels.

For that double incidence more cholesterol I had myocardial infarction, and revascularization of two of the three coronary arteries with 5 stent, come on, I am here of a miracle.In addition to the erectile dysfunction that I have suffered.

Stop smoking now !!!!I know it's difficult, I remember tobacco, I liked smoking, but ........

Replace it for something, whatever you can think of, but leave it, you are killing you little by little, it is hard, if you have to cry, then cry, but leave it.

From experience.
