Hi , welcome to H.C.M.Forum. you had the stroke due to smoking. every time you smoke, nicotine gets deposited on the walls of blood vessels. as it gets thicker blood supply to that part gets decreased and finally stops, causing stroke. after 1st cigarette brain become numb and you don't feel giddy. so better keep it for. thank you.
