From what I've been reading I've seen medical journals state that after treatment of Hodgkin people may get lung cancer so they suggest you quit smoking bc it can aggravate it. I also notice that smoking increases one's chances of getting Hodgkin lymphoma so this is a really obvious answer. I think you know deep down that you need to quit but you don't want to let it go. I think you should try to quit but it's your choice. Good luck.
