I am on day 25.
I have been feeling great lately, really feeling like I am doing a good job, infact excellent job, with not smoking. I have put in place a (for me) vigorous physical workout routine, I swim between 5 and 6 hours per week. And I mean really swim there are coaches and other swimmers and sprints and all the stuff that is really challenging to me.
Get to the point already! My throat feels congested and my chest feels raspy, I cough nothing up and any mucous that comes out of my nose is clear (first time that I can remember for this). My nose, throat and mouth really dry out overnight. During the day it feels like I breath so much better and yet I have this raspy, itchy scratchy feeling in my throat and in the top of my chest. I know that my breathing in my sleep is much much easier and I have no sleep apnia at this time.
Any thoughts any suggestions? Does any one else feel this? Maybe I am pushing to hard and wanting to much to fast, that would be my usual pattern?
Thanks
Phillip :confuse: :quest:
