Hi Mercy, Hope the meds work for you & you are rid of the pain. I started my quit with shingles, severe back muscle spasms & blood pressure out of sight. I am fine now. Quitting smoking solved a lot of problems. I am so thankful to have wised up & threw them away. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/15/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 140 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,200 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $490.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 19 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 42 [B]Seconds:[/B] 39

Mercy, I have an idea of where you're at. I was on strong pain killers after recent feet operations but I quite liked the buzz! Only thing is it took me two horrible days to come down off them: feeling grotty, hungry and yearning for a smoke. Have decided I won't take them again unless I really need to. Maybe soon I can power walk too and shift a few pounds. Be good for chasing horses too.

BEAR... I don't have too....i'm short enough to look UP!! :8o: GENEVIEVE.. I have bad fibro...like really bad right now and they found I have rhuematoid arthritis with it. I am such an active person. Well..this new med makes me high. Like..happy high. I am getting more use to it. I think you adjust (I hope) Or else I'll be a spacey goat. It has been a blessing. I have'nt been this pain free in a long time. I can even power walk twice a day...and I mean really power walk!! I'm going to start working out again. The pain is still there....but it is a seizure med that blocks the impulses to the brain. The first couple of days being spacy made me want to smoke. I don't feel that now at all....but it did. That really scared me. It gives you that happy I don't care feeling....which for quiting smoking is not good. mercy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 192 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,840 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $858.24 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 25 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 35 [B]Seconds:[/B] 45
