I had gone totally off gum for six days then caved in. I couldn't deal with the urges without a little crutch. The crutch turned out to be not so little.
I can't say exactly what it was, gum after a lay off, too much, used incorrectly and swallowing too much, too often something. I got sick. Really sick. Severe dizzyness, room spinning, lay down on the floor to keep from falling. Projectile vomiting. Depression. Lethargy. I mostly have to diagnose my own ailments because I can't afford a doctor so I thought it was an inner ear infection. Nothing I did made it go away. Sick, sick, sick and getting worse by the minute.
I had to be all but carried to the doctor to find out what it was that looked like it was killing me.
Ya ready?
Did ya guess?
Nicotine POISONING! From the gum.
I guess I have to be nic free from now on.
