Rd Man The Quit and all the Stories

Another post to say off again to CA and the warm desert sun. MMMMMM I have to say that the air as clean as it was, was a pleasure to breath and I am glad to be going back even though it is for such a short time. Anything to get out of the pollution and humidity and the constricted feelings I get in my chest. When I get back I have determined to go for another test to see if there is anything that is not right. I don't know if there is anything even to do to correct. I spoke to another long term quitter who has the same problem with breathing in the hot and humid weather. He said that the more time the more healing there can be. So. Time really does heal all. I will wait and see. I noticed that at this time last year I had very similar issues with breath and comfort and Perhaps it is just something that comes with this season and the time of year. Oh well. Just keep going cause it really does get better as time goes on. Cheerio. TTFN Phillip :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]2/17/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 519 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 12,975 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $4,411.50 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 84 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 56 [B]Seconds:[/B] 3

Lilly Thank You. I have been back now at home for three weeks and although it has been very hot and humid I am way more able to breath easy. Thanks for thinking of me.

Rd Man The Quit and all the Stories

A tiny bit freaked out. To the Doctor today to check about the breathing issues I have been having and I am being sent into a round of tests and imaging. There are so many things this could be and so much of it relates to how much I smoked over so many years. So even though I have been quit for a year and a half there are still issues and problems that are coming up as a result of the damage I caused. So here I go and I hope it all comes out for the best. A lovely quote for me today. [quote] Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful. [/quote] So I am not dead, I am barely sick and here I go. Still swimming and still quit after all these days and months. Joy - Love - Peace Phillip ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]2/17/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 556 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 13,900 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $4,726.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 90 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 41 [B]Seconds:[/B] 28
