Kelly, don't beat your self up about giving in to having that first smoke after 6 days, I don't know how many times I tried to stop in the past but never got through more than a day. The main thing is to be persistant, and with that new med I bet it will help a lot, my foreman at work took some kind of med, I don't know what it was but he said it cost over 100 dollars or a Rx. It might have been the same thing and he did quit by using it, he went through the lolly pops for a while though but no smokes, and his wife was going to stop too but she couldn't make it so he has the same thing you do. the spouse smoking, I am sure it would make it a lot harder to quit.
LOL. I bet your hubby thinks you won't quit and that way he won't have to either.. but you will show him and then you can see how much trouble he has in stopping. lol..
I went back to the Dr. Friday , maybe it wan't the stopping smoking that caused me some trouble like I first though, the dr. said I had infection in my lungs, at least that is what he told me but with the antibiotics and the second round of steroids which I am not keen about, I think I am about back to the way I used to be, he told me too, that a smoker gets a little shorter of breath for a while after stopping as the tars etc. are coming loose from the lungs.. Anyway I never heard or though of anything happening from stopping but it is all supposed to be temporary so that isn't bad,,
Ok, keep at it and I think this med will help and I know you have the drive to stop , and that is very important in success.
I hope the others on here are having success as well and I know if they keep trying they will stop smoking too even though it might take some time and a few set backs.
Good luck to all.

Vernon, I am glad to hear that you are feeling a little bit better at least. If you had a lung infection like that, it is even more important that you quit smoking. You are a real inspiration for me and I know that once I succeed, you will have played a big factor in my success :)
