Feeling positive

Thanks to all you lovely people, I'm feeling a bit better about myself today. Back on the vapestick, ordered more e-liquid but with a lower strength nicotine content - trying to slowly wean myself off that too. I know I'm going to have to suffer all the withdrawal symptoms again but, I now know exactly what to expect. Have to keep any eye on my blood pressure though - I'm only on tablets because of smoking - the last time I gave up (I was in hospital recovering from an operation to remove a tumour), I was still taking the tablets but my blood pressure went waaaaaaaay down. My GP said that the nicotine in patches/vapesticks etc. can still cause high blood pressure so I guess until I can get onto zero nicotine liquid, I'll have to keep taking the tablets!
