ONDERLAND BABY YEAH!!!!!!
Hi Tony
When I first started trying to quit I used The patch and the perscription Wellbutrin...When that wasn't working very well I went to my PCP, and she prescribed and new drug treatment...CHANTIX...It worked great...I haven't smoked for 3 months now...and I had smoked for more than 30 years...I am around smokers everyday, and sometimes it is very difficult...It is still a daily struggle...but not near as bad as it was...I still get accused of smoking from time to time...But I know I am not...and that is all that matters...I had to stop before I could have surgery...and I wanted this surgery more than I wanted a cigarette...Feel free to E-Mail me anytime...
I wish you luck...

I'm with you on the struggle! Do u know if chantix is covered under ins? So did u have any withdrawels and how did they affect u and how did u deal with them? I know I;m full of questions but I need help!! All by the way I believe u when u say u haven't smoked. I will kick the habit cuz I want this surgery more than I've ever wanted anything in my life. Thanks 4 responding,as it means alot to me. I love this website..It has so many wonderful people and I hope to get to know each and everyone of you as I start my journey to being a loser!!!!
Tony,
It is quite expensive if it is not covered by ins...Mine covered it...I have anthem BCBS...I only paid $26. for a one month supply...without ins...its over $100...I had no side effects at all...I just didn't have the cravings....Before I started taking it, I felt like I was going insane...It was a life saver for me...There is a website...Chantix.com...That will help you with a lot of questions....about the drug and how it works...also a support page to help...You can do it...I know you can...
keep telling yourself...I WANT THIS SURGERY MORE THAN I WANT THAT CIGARETTE...I understand what you are going through. And if there is anything I can do dont hesitate to ask...
