I am not sure if smoking can cause TB, but it will cause so many other problems, it would not suprise me if it did.
I started smoking when I was about 13 yrs of age..I smoked for about 40 yrs...I woke in the middle of the night one night, and could not get my breathe at all. So to make a long story short, I quit....I have now, Asthma, and so many breahing problems I won't bore you....I can not work anymore, cause I can not walk more than across a small room without sitting for quite awhile. You asked if smoking can cause TB, probably....God only knows what else it does....If you are not smoking then GREAT!!!!!, but if you have already started, please consider to stop, before its too late. I will stop preaching. God bless you. No, but that's about the only thing it doesn't cause . . .
