Other - Health - November 2006

When it is asked why does the government not ban a drug of addiction that kills and hospitalises so many people, the quick answer is always 'money'. But is that true ? Isn't it a fact that the cost of smoking related health problems, including death, is more than what the government gets. Is there any evidence one way or the other ?

I think you all have the best answer.I wish I could give all of you 10 points.Now I posted that question to advise against smoking more than anything.As I stated I'am a heavy smoker.I'm very sick from smoking.Now friends I would never do anything to hurt anyone.I know the dangers of second hand smoke.My whole point is,if I'am at a park in the wide open spaces if I'am not blowing smoke in your or your loved ones face why can't I enjoy what my tax dollars helped pay for.I'am not asking for the run of the place just a little of the freedom that I searved in the armed service and payed my dews for.I respect your wishes can't I have just a little.I have 9 grand children &3 greatgrand kids.I don't want you to hurt them and I don't want to hurt yours,and I wouldn't.Hell I'm dieing so I'll just go away and live my life in bed and smoke all I want.Will I have to sneek off to the bathroom?

Last December, I entered into a study to replace three bad discs in my neck with silicone ones and some bracket and eight screws. According to them, this was all suppose to fuse together and I'd be back to normal. Well that hasn't happened. I have huge air pockets around my screws, the symptoms I had prior to surgery have not only returned but intensified. I am on 800mg of Ibuprofen for the swelling of my hands, flexerall to try and relax the muscles that are freezing up, Valium to help me sleep (everything stops moving as if I'm paralyzed when I lay down) and Vicodin for the pain (which is a severe burning feeling down my arm and from the base of my neck to mid spine). The drugs are making me sick, the pain is limiting my lifestyle and I'm desperate for some other alternative. I am a mother of 5 who was extremely active, so depression is starting to set in as I watch my life slipping away from the sidelines since I can't do ANYTHING. I've done the physical therapy already.
