Wish me luck......
I'm trying to quit smoking!! I have smoked for 30 years and it is really starting to effect my health. The doctor prescribed Chantix. I tried it once before and couldn't take it but this time I've been taking it for almost 3 weeks. It makes me so nauseated and nothing really has a taste I have went from 2 packs a day to a pack lasting for 3 days so I feel like I am making progress!! I sure hope I can actually quit completely.
Some of you may remember my respiratory problems from a while back. The results from my ct's were pretty good except I have a very small spot on my left lung that my dr said he was not worried about right now. He has sent me recently for a ct on my back and a bone density test which didn't turn out good. I now have to take Actonel everyday. I have 2 bulging discs in my back!! I am 48 and falling apart lol. Anyway.....if I can quit smoking, I will feel so much better. Actually I already do just from cutting back so much. But I want to completely quit!! I could have bought a brand new car for what I have paid for cigarettes. It makes me so aggravated!! So girls.....wish me luck and say a little prayer. It is such a hard habit to break!! |
