Of course your special, especially to your beautiful little twins!

Ive just read your earlier Thread on 'Why I'm Quitting', great post.

Anyway, I know nothing about Champix, but I'm sure others will be along to advise.

I just wanted to say Hi, and all the very best as you begin your quit journey.

I'm sure you'll do just fine my love.

Hiya mate

Sounds a bit out of the normal to me.

Champix with me made me feel a bit spaced out now and again but only in short spells.Had the odd headache but nothing too strong,what you could do is juggle about a bit with what time you take pills-try late morning with some food,even if just a biscuit with your tea and around 7 also with food.If thats not working change times again but try to have it with some food.

If symptoms persist or get worse see the Doc

Thanks for the reply.

Actually I feel fine now, think I may have just suffered a bit of an anxiety attack. I'm no stranger to these but you can only usually recognise them after they've subsided.

I had a lousy night's sleep last night so maybe that's to blame.

If the internet wasn't laden with Champix horror stories I wouldn't be so hyper-sensitive to every little symptom.

Except for the stoned feeling, that's definitely the meds... yeah mon.

I am now 6 weeks into using Champix and till now hardly any side affects.

But this week I have started to have my sleep disturbed.

It is probably not the Champix then, I took Champix and they gave me weird dreams but not disturbed sleep! 6 weeks is really good though. I would see your GP if you are worried about anything like that.

Hey

I'm on day 3 of non smoking and day 13 of taking champix. I have had a few side effects from the champix such as weird dreams, waking up during the night and a little nausea. I no longer seem to be having any side effects from the champix. However, today I have headache, feel achey, sore throat like i'm getting a cold. I'm quite sure that this is just nicotine withdrawal rather than the champix. I took some paracetamol and went for a walk and feel tons better.

Speak to your doctor to be on the safe side but a lot of your symptoms do sound typical of nicotine withdrawal so you should feel better soon.

Just to add- When I doubled my champix dose I had a couple of days of feeling nauseous, foggy brain etc but all that has gone now.
