Even if they could, how could they tell if it was you smoking or second hand smoke?
I have lung issues from second hand smoke and every time I go to a new doctor they ask if I smoke and kind of don't believe me until I say both my parents did my entire childhood in the house and in cars.
Maybe your parents smoked. Maybe a spouse does. Maybe you just worked in a smoking bar. Who could tell?
