I was a heavy smoker and dr c was very strict about quitting he took a blood test to be sure...at 8 weeks...i was told the reason is because it slows healing dramatically, as far as the breathing issues he said he would "put me on a respirator as long as i needed" but i had to quit smoking to heal properly....i too am sorry about your friend....but for me personally this was the best thing i ever did for myself!!
