If there aren't already enough reasons for
quitting smoking, then here is a big one. If you need surgery there is a high
likely hood that you will either be refused or sent to the back of the medical
queue.
The reason is simple; most hospitals
in the western world are already overloaded with elective surgery requests. A
simple way to trim the list is to exclude smokers. In some cases such as heart
surgery, it makes sense.
The harsh truth is that smokers will
have a lower recovery success rate with heart surgery than non smokers. Because
a process of massive oxidation occurs during this surgery, often Co enzyme Q 10
is given to prevent this problem, but smoking just makes this process worse.
Other surgery such as shoulder surgery
doesn't have the same risks but many doctors simply adopt the view that smokers
don't care for themselves so why should they be given any form of preference.
There are purely logical reasons as
well. Smoking is a stress on your body. Stress causes your immune system to
become less efficient. Hospitals are places where all kinds of bugs exist, plus
surgery places an even greater strain on your immune system.
Sorry smokers but it's just more bad
news for you, but smoking creates worse surgical outcomes.
When you enter hospital you want
your immune system to be at its best, you want the medical staff to be
completely on your side, and they will appreciate the fact that you have quit
smoking to help yourself.
Plus you want your body to be able
to recover as quickly and as well as possible. All that remains is for you to
quit smoking.
The easiest way to do it is to use
rapid change hypnosis to permanently rid you of all the old physical and
emotional connection to smoking.
A good therapist can also help you to
overcome any fears related to your surgery, because as you now know, fear
reduces your immune response.
Hypnosis is a gentle successful way
to make you a non smoker and not just an ex smoker. There is a vast difference,
the ex smoker is always just a moment away from smoking again, they look at
people smoking and are envious.
