I want to say good morning to everyone, I am remaining a little light headed but nothing I can't handle. One thing about being in bad shape when you have to go to the hospital is you get looked at right away, mind you 8 hrs On Sunday was a long time .I got the call yesterday to get the heart monitor Fri morning and I made an appointment to see my family doctor as well on fri the hospital also called and Mon morning they set me up with a stress test and I will also see the specialist the same doc that didn't like the sound of my lungs and set up the breathing test that showed the COPD that was back in July . I really like him, so I am glad he's looking after me . I told his secretary a couple of months ago to let him know that I quit smoking. Now I get to tell him myself that I have nearly 5 months in. I am so thankful that my husband and I both quit smoking we only have one life and once our health is jeopardized it's a wonderful thing to be able to say I don't smoke anymore. Please everyone especially if you are new to your quits, stay strong you can and will succeed. You need to be stronger than your cravings, keep your mind as well as your hands occupied, drink lots of water it's a wonderful thing to be an EX SMOKER. Hang in there because it is Sooooo worth it.
