Hi redrosie!
since I quit I have been HOT not normal for me I am the woman who has 2 blankies on the couch all year round I get cold in the summer too. I am now throwing the covers from the bed on my husband and have turned my thermostat way down and I drive to work with the window down because I am so stinking hot.
Just thought I would share.

I don't know too much about the topic, but I know blood circulation should improve when you quit, so it is quite possible that you are warmer than usual.

Hi everyone. I have noticed in the last week that my hands have become quite sweaty. I am a person who doesn't even sweat at all, even in the middle of summer. I am sure this must be because of my quit, but I wonder what causes it. Any answers? Thanks [color=Red]redrosie[/color]

as the time I quit, there were many posts about quitters and hot flashes and flushing. I have no scientific facts about this, but it does seem to be something that a lot of quitters experience. probably due to stress and a feeling of panic that leaving this junky behind brings on.
hang tough.....whatever the symptom.....I promise you no one here has died from quitting LOL

red,
Your hands and fingers may tremble slightly. However, the tremor is usually minor, and will subside as your body gets used to not smoking. You may also experience increased perspiration.
How long will this last? The first few weeks after quitting.
Tips to help: Frequent warm baths or showers can help dispel both the perspiration and the tremor. If you are concerned, consult your doctor to determine whether it is severe enough to warrant medication.
If you have a symptom that persists or seems worse than you expected, you should immediately consult a doctor. It�s possible that your smoking has been masking symptoms of some illness, and when you stop smoking the symptoms abruptly become noticeable.
Hope this helps,
Josie
