More and more I think about it, I highly doubt that smoking is the issue. All my uncles and my father were heavy smokers. No cancer, no lung issues. All lived to near 80. My father was a freak medical accident due to fungal infection in the ER. Logic and my genetic tells me, my brain blood vessels are either genetic issue or complications due to diabetes. And the surgeon looked like a guy with very complex Napoleon complex. I am head taller than him. Probably anti-smoker. Probably his father ignored him and was a smoker. So, I have made executive decision to go easy on smoking, but not cutting it out. If I was to die, I would be died already. But won't over do it. Not really sure I want bypass in my head by that guy. If it comes to that, I'm gonna ask for another. If it was that urgent, would he put it off for 3 months to monitor? i need to think logically.
