Getting better

I can't believe it's been so long since I blogged. I've had some bad days with my breathing and severe nausea from the chantix. Also my computer had a couple of bad days too. She is about 7 yrs. old now and hanging on by a thread. Unfortunately we don't have the finances to get a new one. In spite of that, I have been reading blogs and keeping up with quitsmoking on line. I cut back on my dosage of chantix and the nausea subsided but I'm not sure if I'm getting the full benefit. I found out today that my primary Dr. called in phenergan (an antinausea med) which I will pick up tomorrow and go back to the prescribed dose of chantix.

I am over the physical withdrawls but constantly have smoking on the brain. I am trying to keep myself as distracted as possible as I believe in the next mo. or so this will get less and less. That's what happened with my last quit anyway.

I hope everyone here is doing well with their quits and wish you all a good w/e.
