This morning I had the worse cravings ever. I know I would have smoked if I would have had access. Then I didn't take the chantix this morning to see if it was causing my severe nausea and it is. Then I started to think about plan b. It seemed stupid to start using patches and put nicotine back in my body after 4 days but I'm really scared about going cold turkey. I took a nap and when I got up I wasn't having cravings but when my husband got home from work I actually asked him for a cigarette. He was so disappointed that I didn't take one but this has been one scary day. I called my primary Dr. to see if she would give me a prescription for something to help with the nausea. All my docs know the severity of my copd but it will be Mon. before I hear anything.  I did get some cinnomin sticks and hope they help. Over the w/e I am going to cut down on my chantix dose.

Hope everyone has a good w/e.
