male only Cigars After Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

[aztecmaverick 1]

So, I used to do a cigar/month before the surgery...

Does anyone smoke cigars after their sleeve??

[razrbakcrzy 9]

yes I do and I smoke about 2 - 6 per month... Not alot but i do enjoy them with a nice glass of adult beverage...

[aztecmaverick 1]

How soon after did you have your first one?

My doc says it increases the chances of ulcers so no more, but Kaiser said it was ok...

Smoking cigarettes and cigars basically looks the same, so is a cigar just like a gigantic cigarette?

I like this topic. I don't smoke them a lot, but would like to partake in the enjoyment of a nice cigar and adult beverage.

I don't inhale, so not sure how this could really affect post op... thoughts? Anyone really know answer?

Just got some Gurka Widow Makers (nice name)...MY wife bought them.. LOL

Cigars and cigarettes aren't the same. People tend to smoke cigarettes at any time of the day for any reason. However I nice cigar isn't enjoyed as frequent. Plus there's more of an art/refinement to cigars, like whiskey.

I smoked ****** a few days after my surgery. It was enjoyable.

Moderation is always key.

Any update on this? I'm 15 days out of surgery and would like to smoke one for Father's Day. Did it cause nausea or anything?

No worries....

I'm 6 weeks after op and I love my cigars ~!

IMO: smoking seems to be alright (although doctors say that it can cause stomach ulcers),

the problem is drinking... realised I can no longer chug, but sip....

So a nice Cohiba Robusto with a nice glass of whiskey from the low lands of Scotland....

what can I say... Life couldnt be better

I miss my Friday and Saturday night cigars with a nice glass of whiskey (or 3), actually I miss the whiskey that goes with it. Now that I'm home all day I find myself having about 1 - 2 cigars a day while relaxing on my balcony.

I haven't noticed any ill effects as I maintain my liquids, Protein and I walk 3-4 miles daily

That sounds so good. I'm 10 days out so the whiskey is out i guess but I'm really wanting a cigar.

Year and a half out. But I waited 6 months to enjoy a cigar. Now I have a couple a week.
