I know smoking is not advised, in general, or after surgery. But has anyone smoked marijuana (or anything) after thyroid surgery? Or any throat, nose, chest, etc. surgery??? Or just heard anything about it at all?

I mean I'll wait a week, after which I'll see my surgeon and ask him personally. But I was just wondering if anyone had or had heard about people doing so. And what it had done to you or them.

Thanks guys. Hope to get a reply. And not one that just tells me not to smoke (yes, I'm aware it's not good for me, I'm sorry, ok?)

i am a 21 year old female and i had a total thyroidectomy on may 29, 2007. i smoked marijuana till like two days before my surgery and then about 9 days after. the vicodin was making me feel ill so once i went home from the hospital i stopped taking it and then once my neck/i started to feel better i began smoking a little bit. not as much as i had before, but with in a month i was out with my friends for the fourh of july and drinking and smoking like normal. not that i recommend any of this, but i know when i was about to have my surgery i googled this subject over and over and there were no responses so here is mine.
