Life's Challenges...

[arlingtondeedee]

So, I just found out I have ruptured discs in my neck... I'm on steroids for a week, and massive pain killers IN ADDITION to the Chantix (day 5 today...cool dreams last night!)

I have to do a whole routine of things in addition to taking the pills 3+ times/daily in order to avoid surgery...and it's very depressing for me.

I asked my doc if I should continue with the Chantix since I'll be taking all this other medication, and he said there shouldn't be a problem... but now I'm so spaced out on painkillers, I'm smoking w/o even realizing it!

I'm not sure if this is a 'good time' to quit, but will there really really ever be a 'good time'??? Probably not... life constantly surprises us with challenges and we have to step up the the plate and start swingin'...

Patience and a postitive attitude are what I'm leaning on right now...

Thanks for letting me vent...
