I don't think that stopping smoking is related to this clinical situation.  For this reason, I recommend performing some tests in order to investigate for other secondary causes: - complete blood count, PCR, ESR- a chest X-ray study-kidney and liver function tests-blood electrolytes- fasting glucose-thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction.  You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests. Starting antihypertensive therapy may be needed.  In the meantime, I recommend reducing salt and caffeine intake.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  </s>
