day 2

[nsd_user663_4477]

Hi nearly through day 2! Didn't put a patch on today as my cravings were still there with patches, so thought i'd try without. Not been too bad but now i've got a glass off wine in my hand I need to keep hold of the willlpower!!

Really determined this time so hopefully can do it.

Hi Louey

Almost through day 2 that's great

Having a glass of wine as well, you're much braver than I was, didn't dare touch any until about 3 weeks after I stopped just hang in there

Love

Yes, hold on tight to your will power and read some of the great links to websites that you can find. Reading is helping me loads to deal with the psycological side to quitting. It's all in the head. Good Luck.

Stay Strong

Hopeful

I need some advise !!

I am on Day 34 right now...and I've had my bumps in the road...but now I have another bump that is causing me some pain.

For the past 4 days, I have had a swollen gland in the right side of my neck. I am wondering whether anyone else using the nicotine gum has experienced this. It's the only thing that I have been doing lately that is different (other than smoking of course).:confused:

I use only about 3 or 4 pieces a day...On a really bad day, I might do 5..but that is very seldom. It gets worse when I lie down, and first thing in the morning is when it is most painful. It does hurt to the touch too.:eek:

Has anyone else experienced this ? I have not had a cold or anything like that for years. Is this common when quitting ?

thanks for any input !!

Hi Deb

Sorry you have a bad neck but I suspect this may just be a swollen gland although it may be connected to your quit, get it checked out by your Doctor

Well done on 34 days that's brilliant big hug on it's way for you
