I wonder what age group these cardiologists are? The younger ones..and this goes for all types of doctors...have been taught and believe so much crap it’s frightening. I have been smoking pipes since 1957 and just about every issue I’ve had these younger quacks attribute to that. Everything from eye problems to joint pain. One dumshit even told me I’d have to quit pipe for a year before he’d do a surgery. On the other hand, my cardiologist...same age as me.. says no problem and enjoys them himself. Moral of story...get an old school doc whenever you can!
That and a lot of women d9ctors...and I say that as a woman.
