Smoking does no end of terrible things to your lungs & body generally. One of the main consequences is that it reduces oxygen levels generally in your body & in particular reduces the flow of oxygen into your body tissue. I suppose 3 roll-ups a day might be less damaging than 30 Benson & Hedges, but all the same, there will be an impact, which might include tremors getting worse.
