Might i add, im on wellbutrin/zyban and that stuff works great. The side effects are terrible of quitting. Shows how much your body depends on nicotine. yuck

Welcome to the site harpe,

Well Done on quitting, hang on in there!

Sounds awful! Sweating? If you have a fever Or if the chest becomes too painful, you need to go see your doctor. These are possible indications of a chest infection.

If not then it's perfectly normal to be clearing your lungs out! theres a nasty thick layer of tar in there you've been building up!

Try steam inhalation, either a facial sauna or head over a bowl of boiling hot water with a towel over your head and bowl.

Do this several times a day for 20 minute bursts of a min or two over the bowl several times! (20 mins continually over a bowl of boiling water and you will be a boiled lobster! lol)

Hope this helps you, Keep it up!

You really don't want to prevent all that kunk in ur lungs from comming up....cough it up and get it out...then u will breathe freer. You may want to get a good cough syrup with quanifiesan...( don't think I spelled that right) My doctor gave me Crantex la and that helps keep the mucus thinner easier to cough up...oh..btw...I am in america.

Keep up the good work, it does get easier

day 12 here
