Day 4 with the nrt patches

Hi All!!

I lasted nine days without a cig using nrt a few weeks ago. I then went back to the stinking things because i was craving them too much. I'm now on day four with the patches but decided to use the inhalator for that little bit extra!!

Well done Terry for getting straight back on your quit.

I am using patches & lozenges & find they really help me.

Good luck & keep us posted ;)

Well done Terry. Patches AND gum,lozenge,minitab,inhalator or nasal spray is the answer. I really think that more people will be able to start their quit and stay quit now that the powers that be have sanctioned the use of combination NRT. Wearing the patch all day made me feel protected but having the gum to chew during stressful times helped me get through them.

Good for you Terry, I agree using two NRT products has helped me loads this time. Have stopped the patches now but they got me through the first weeks.
