Good morning,
As all of you know, a disproportionate number of us smoke tobacco. As far as my experience goes, I started getting CH many years before I started smoking. It's not likely that the practice of smoking somehow triggered mine. So here's the question: Can smoking create or exacerbate this condition? If so, how? If not, is there some neurological mechanism at work that makes smoking particularly attractive to us? It's a curious thing.
