Hello Alaina:
 
Actually Buergers Disease is just one kind of peripheral vascular disease--there are many of them and most are more common than Buergers Disease. Smoking is responsible for almost all Burergers Disease cases, but it also plays a major role in the aggravating role for all other types of other peripheral vascular diseases. Stopping smoking is among the most important steps a person can take to minimize the the suffering of these other conditions and to reduce the risks of any of them resulting in amputations.
 
Alaina, I started a new board this week called AskJoel. Here is a link to that site: http://groups.msn.com/AskJoel/askjoel.msnw
 
It has a message board there where people can write in questions and comments, to get feedback from me and longer-term successful quitters. Would it be okay with you if I posted your email below to me. I can leave off your name if you prefer. I think you will get some good insights from a few of our helping members. Let me know if this is acceptable to you.
 
If you ever want to add additional comments or have questions you want answered on the board, just address the email to [email protected].
 
Joel
