The WORST thing you can do is to smoke now, you need to give your lungs some time to heal.  Drink lots of fluids, I suggest taking generic mucinex which may help to loosen any phlegm you have.  REST, watch movies, listen to music.  You can get through this, it will get better and no crave is going to kill you but no one can say that about smoking.

I'm so glad you went and got checked out. Bronchitis is nasty and it would be a huge mistake to smoke. I bet you don't! Stressful stuff will be there whether you smoke or not. If you smoke, you have that to deal with AGAIN!

Take care of yourself. It takes a bit to get over the bronchitis.

Congrats on not smoking.

Happy to hear you went to the ER and know the cause of our chest pain.  That can be scary.   Take care of yourself right now.

Smart girl.  No cigs in the house. That's the way to do it.  Once you get over the issues of quitting, you will never be sorry you quit.  It becomes pretty wonderful.  Take good care of you.  Lots of fluids, vitamins and good nutrition.
