I smoked from about age 18 until diagnosed with BOT in April of this year. I was smoking 2 packs or more per day until DX day. Quit cold turkey after we met with my ENT to be told of all test results. Needless to say, should have quit years earlier but honestly never tried. My ENT tried to be nice by telling me not to be kicking myself as 8% of all BOT cases involved people who never touched tobacco. I still feel that I brought it on myself. Never have drank much over the years and feel no cause associated.
