Keep busy

schedule 25 Jul 2016

Hi all. We are all going well. It is now 3 months today for me and I am so happy with how strong I am feeling. Keeping on track is easy for me because I can't afford to buy smokes unless I starve myself and my dog. My cough has virtually gone but I have a very raspy throat. I am to see a Specialist in August where he will put a camera up through the nostril and down into the throat. We are hoping the throat is all clear. I also have put on weight about 3kg but I would rather have the extra weight that the addiction. Exercise will soon trim me down especially coming into the warmer weather. I thank all the support I have had from this site, it had been great.

My cough went almost straight away - I was so surprised, thought it would go on for months after I stopped but I did get a lot of phlegm dislodging (sorry not very pleasant). Glad you've got an appointment to see a specialist, if nothing else it will put your mind at rest and then you have a sturdy platform to decide where to go from there. Let us know how it goes, Sag.

IC, get your appointment sorted please. No point giving up the smokes and not looking after yourself now! You've done the tough bit. Let me know when you've sorted it out!!
