I don't miss the constant throat clearing, and the coughing as I fell asleep. Those are gone. YAY! It's funny, my lungs felt better the first couple of months- I notice that I'm coughing a little bit again. But it's
different, not nearly so constant, not is it phlegmy (is that a word?). I'm pretty sure that it takes longer than a few months to heal 30+ years worth of damage. At first, the change was so pronounced, what with losing the tar and carbon monoxide that I thought my lungs were all better. Not all healed yet, but enough better that they're getting sensitive- pollen, car exhaust etc. They're doing what they're supposed to do, and hopefully one day they'll be all pink and shiny again.
