Hiya, I am on Day 2 and have been coughing my guts up since last night!

I am currently coughing up brigh yellow thick gungy stuff and have a horrrible taste in my throat. Is this normal?

I smoked 10 a day since I was 16, so 8 years non stop!

hi and well done in quitting.

sounds like you are getting smoking off your lungs quite literally.

i would give it 24hours and if your not getting better go and visit your GP.

hopefully the upside to this as that you don't feel like having a fag;)

let us know how you get on.

Well done Beckiy, into day three now and how is the cough, is it still productive? Some people get it and others don't mine was a pathetic irritating little thing (my cough) lol. There have been a few "Yellowbellies" on here, don't know how many are left though. David

What i would have given to have the cough you described.. a producing cough that brings up the gunk like that is a very very positive sign. As disgusting as you see it right now its clearing that out from your lungs.. so any thing you bring up is better than it being in your lung.. period.

Well done you on day 3.. let everyone know how you are getting on, and do rely on us all for support if you need it.

Good luck.
