What are the chances? I havent smoked any cigarettes today but I did the past 2 days.
don’t scare yourself into a panic attack brother…you’re fine…the cigs won’t immediately give you a heart attack.

Incredibly low. Also keep in mind that a lot of people survive heart attacks and thrive after, I’m proof of that. Don’t wind yourself up over it.

Do you have high blood pressure? High cholesterol? I would be more worried about your labs than the cigs

I have cardiomyopathy and I had heart failure at a young age HOWEVER the heart meds made my heart go back to working at a NORMAL level
Your young like me and heart meds can help if it DOES happen
But my issue is genetic and I’m thriving even tho I almost died
I don’t think you have anything to worry about tho

I’m 51 and smoked for 32 years, and quit 2 years ago. My heart is fine. I’m sure you’re okay if you slipped and had a couple of smokes. Just get back on track and keep trying to quit…it’ll stick eventually.

Thanks everyone. Im a bit more calm now. I know none of you guys are doctors but I appreciate the calming words. I’ll be okay. I haven’t smoked all day. I’m only 30 years old so I need to remember its unlikely for me to have a heart attack.
