Cigarette cures my constipation

[Ment-Al]

Very random post, but had a bit of the old constipation over the last few days, tried everything.

My old Nan says "well i have a smoke in the morning and i need the toilet right away".

Im thinking daft old bag, get a grip.

But I tried it as i was quite uncomfortable. Low and behold... i have a poo.

Anyone know why?

hmm

My mate has said the same thing about smoking.

Couldn't tell you why...

It does sound odd to me.

It's a well known side effect of smoking, loads of info on it if you want to google.

no idea why, but... its true, I dont normally smoke, more social, but if If I have a cigarette and I have no been for a #2 then it instantly speeds that process up!!!

Well, I'm a smoker, and have never suffered, so there could be something in it.

Thinking about it, nearly every ex-smoker I've met was full of st. Conclusive.

I was under the impression it relaxes the bowl muscles.

Reading the e-cigarette forum, many who stop smoking normal tabs and go onto electric cigarettes suffer several months of farting and constipation. I'm getting one purely to aid my trumping skills.

A weird one, but as long as i dont get cancer from one cigarette in pursuit of a poo, im happy.

Where did you put it?

[sprinter885]

I too have encountered people who stop smoking & suffer the dreaded bung ups.

Sadly one or two also then developed bowel cancer- wonder if there's a link??

I was always under the impression that it was the obligotary <sp?> morning coffee consumed with the cigarette that made things 'advance'.

I don't smoke, (well, the occassional daliance while under the affluence!), but when I drink coffee in the morning I'm often required to make haste in a dunnybound direction shortly afterwards.

No that just gives a double dose effect

Relaxes the muscles?

[lazyitus]

Were they Lambert & Butler ?

If so, you now know why they are known as st fags.

[simonrockman]

You are supposed to light cigarettes and put them in your mouth. Not up your arse. If you do put fags up your arse I hope you don't light them first.

All regular as clockwork here too. g/f has the odd ciggie and when she does it seems to get the system moving.

Most i have come across are worse than any TV evangelist. Every time someone i know quits smoking I can be fairly sure they will either be back on them in a month or off the Christmas card list within 12months due to pious preaching and often a total change in their personality from fairly chilled to gibbering moron with a chip the size of Birmingham on their shoulder.

Oh and that thing about “They smell better” No they don’t, they reek of fear, cold sweats and have a hunted longing look in their eyes for what they can no-longer dare to dream of.

Thanks for sharing that with us....are you trying to say that you didn't smoke before & you started (inhaling & all!) just so you could have a st?
