My Dad and my Husband both smoke and I worry very much about them!. My Dad is 65 and does not have lung cancer, but was just diagnosed with bladder cancer!. He is quitting smoking now!. My Dad has always been very healthy all of my life!. I read that smokers have a very high risk of bladder cancer!. So let your Uncle know that he is risking his health and that you love him and beg him to quit!. If he has any symptoms that something is wrong like blood in his urine to get to the doctor right away and get it taken care of!. Try giving him some Commit losenges!. One method that actually worked for my friend was weaning herself off of cigarettes!. She smoked a pack a day!. Every day she would smoke one less, until she was down to no cigarettes!. It worked for her!. That way her body was used to less and less nicotine!. I hope you can get your Uncle to quit!. I can't believe there are young people out there that actually take up smoking nowadays!. Everyone knows how harmful they are and they do it anyways!? I think that is really bad!. Best wishes to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Unfortunately there is no number that causes lung cancer!. It depends a lot on family history/genes!. There are people who smoke 3 packs a day their whole life and do not get cancer, and on the other side there are people who have never smoked a day in their lives and get lung cancer!. However, it really does not help your chances to stay cancer-free when you have smoked for that long!. Cigarettes greatly increase your risks!. Lung cancer is not the only risk, there are also cardiovascular risk factors as well!. And it is never too late to quit, although that will not have any guarantees either, as a lot of damage is irreversible!. Sorry I am not trying to worry you further, just being honest!. Encourage your uncle to start living a healthier lifestyle and tell him how you feel!. Living healthier can possibly prolong his life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Roughly 584,000 non filtered camels did my best friend in at the age of 55!. He smoked 40 a day for 40 years!. I went to see him 2 weeks before he died!. When I arrived he was in a hospital bed at home in the breeze way with the oxygen on!. He shut off the gas and had four smokes while I was there!. He called to his wife and she gave morphine under his tongue!. He began to see old witches, so I left!. He died a horrible death of pain coupled with Bronchitis!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Your chances of getting lung cancer are just greater if you smoke, you might never get lung cancer but your chances are better than someone who doesn't smoke!.
