4. Is it a big deal that I smoke-purely from an RSD persepctive, of course I know I shouldn't smoke-relative to my disease? Could it make it worse?

My answer: QUIT! I quit 11/07. Everytime I take a puff when my son is at the house, altho I don't do that everytime, my feet almost always go into OD(over drive) PAIN. It takes quite some time fot it to calm back down too. So not worth smoking for this reason. RSD hit in 2003 & I didn't stop for 4 yrs & I am so glad I did. I have take several puffs this past week & half & I so want one right now. It does relax me for a few moments. One thing tho, the earlier in the day I take the puffs, the less pain they cause. Strange eh?

I wanted to post to this question. I don't know if smoking effects everyone this way, but it sure does me.
