I'll have five weeks tomorrow, but I wanted to share that even being sick is better when you don't smoke! I still feel kinda crappy but my lungs don't hurt so badly, I don't cough as much, my sinus' are draining better. Okay, I'm grossing myself out. Do you remember smoking with a cold? Forcing the smoke past your already sore throat? And I think I'll heal faster, when I got a cold when I smoked the cough lasted a week or two after I felt better. I feel like crap, but not as bad as I could have!!

I had a sinus infection about a month ago. It was the first time in 13 years that I was sick without a nagging, lingering, sputum producin' cough that I kept for the rest of the winter!
One more reason not to smoke! :)

Glad your doing good on not smoking sherry i'm also on my 5th week of being smoke free and yes I do remember trying to smoke even if I was feeling horrible and man was it nasty.... Glad I never have to worry about doing that again cause no way i'm going to go back to that horrible addiction :) But gl sherry hope everything goes well on your quit journey!!!!
Sherry,
Not only are you more likely to get over your cold faster but you're also less likely to experience secondary infections.
Congrats on five weeks!
Danielle
