11th Day Smoke Free Done A Month Of Champix, into 2nd Month

[AliKaz]

Hi guys this is my first post in this group and I have been reading stories of everyone that has inspired me a lot so thank you. I have smoked for 17 years almost full time that is a packet almost a day. Now with Champix I’m not having any cravings but there is pain in the left side of my chest especially when I bend over or try to do push ups. The pain comes and goes when I’m walking not putting pressure on it. Also today the 11th day I feel a headache all of a sudden n unwell in general. Do u guys think it’s just withdrawal of nicotine symptoms? Also did anyone experience any lower chest pains near that ribs? Thank you In advance and Good Luck To everyone that is quitting.

Alikaz...Welcome...Congratulations on 11 Days...Well done

Chest Pains must not be taken lightly and would be very good if you could see a Doctor...

If it is quit smoking related we do not know ....Rather be sure than sorry...

Keep us updated ...!!

Huge welcome to our community AliKaz - congratulations on 11 days smoke free, well done!

There is several side effects from taking champix but the same withdrawal from nicotine no matter what way we stop - see pinned posts below worth a read if not already done so:

But as Hercu rightly advised, go to your doctor just for reassurance - keep us posted
