This time I want it to stick. I am using the patch 7 mg, because I was getting such bad headaches with the 14mg. Anyway, I have been having such bad indigestion, constipation, tight uncomfortable chest since quitting 3 days ago. I've seen the uncomfortable chest feeling, but is the indigestion and constipation a typical side effect? Oh , and the patches give me such a welt where I put them which last for 2-3 days. I thought before when I used the patches it was due to Rite-aid giving me generic brands, but the ones I have now are Nicodem brand? ?
HI and Welcome to Ex’s KAM_RGM
Sounds like you may have an allergy to the patches. Perhaps you can call your Doctor and see what he / she suggests...I know some years ago I did the Nicorette and I got so sick from it, my Doctor told me I was having an allergy reaction...anyways, this is my third and last quit and this time I planned for my quit date like no other through My EX Plan | BecomeAnEX and the night before I quit I rid all smoking paraphernalia, also, decided this was going to be my number one priority. Then I read everything I could about quitting and addiction. Lastly, I came here everyday for support and to encourage others on this journey. You can do this and we are here to help...
I hope you can figure out what is going on with the Nicorette...quit aids have helped many here to quit smoking.
Happy Friday...Colleen 648 DOF
