Give and get support around quitting
I've been sick for 3 weeks, quit smoking 6 days ago, but I'm still sick with head congestion and sometimes feverish. Help?

If you were sick BEFORE you quit, I think it's just a coincidence that you were sick after you quit. Sounds like the regular old flu to me. I agree a call to your doctor is in order - three weeks is a long time to still be sick.

Contact your doctor. When this has happened to me, it was usually a sinus infection.
