I cheated and goggled it. I didnt know what it was. But its related to heavy smoking or chewing tobacco. Inflamation of blood vessels that can cut off cirlculation in feet and hand to the point of amputation. It also sometimes effects the brain.

@brats52005: haha well thank you for putting in the effort! My dad has it though he never smoked when he was younger but smokes like a chimney now. Lol he lost his leg 19 years ago and now that im older im doing research on it and im going for micro biology so i was just wondering how many people knew or cared. They said he would die in a few months but hes just as stubborn and spry as he was 20 years ago haha

Ohh had ZERO idea until now ... Thanks OP & sissy .. My father is a chain smoker too and no one can't stop him :(

This is a good thread because more younger guys are into smoking ...

@JLaDawn: thank you very much i appreciate that. The doctor actually told him that it was athletes foot and was treating him for that. His last day at work he started puking blood and he pulled his boot and sock off and when he did his toe came off! Ya pretty gross. I was two weeks old when it happened and ive been with him sense so its really intrigued me cause they say the victums dont live long
