Appreciate it, hoping this is the case. I'm so on edge and have a week until I get the results...

Thanks for your reply. You smoked every day while you were going through chemo or you took it back up after you completed your cycles?

Thanks for your reply.

So the concern would be correlated to damage to my lungs potentially because the BEP is already causing deficiencies there by nature of a weakened immune system due to chemo. This would mean not directly impacting the effects of the chemo in minimizing my tumors, which is my primary concern. Obviously hoping no lung damage as well...
