I have had biopsy diagnosed CELIAC for 2 years. Although my x-husband
(6 yrs an X) smoked like a chimmney...I have been second hand smoke FREE
since then. I have never been a smoker myself. I avoid places where
there is a lot of smoke, none of my family smoke, and my home is a no
smoking zone.
Just the other day I was offered a DREAM JOB.....but it is a small
private office space, where 2 of the 12 employees smoke..ALOT. My
Fiance could smell the smoke on me when I came home after the
interview.... I believe I read at one point that cigarettes can contain
some of our forbidden grains.
My question... Can this second hard smoke make my CELIAC symptoms
return?? I realize my lungs are also in danger, but I am more
concerned about the Celiac part of the equation.. Would wearing one of
those masks like dentists use be of any help?? YES, I really really
need this job.. I have waited years for a job such as this (computer
technician)....but as I am self taught on computers(thus no
credentials), graduated college 20+ years ago, and have been working at
home for the past 20 years (no job history)....I needed to KNOW SOMEONE
in the business to get a chance to prove myself..this is my chance.
The only drawback to this job is the smoke.....how worried should I
be????
