Yes I still Smoke Cigarettes and I am addicted to the smoking habit - support and chat thread.

[daleron]

After only 3 analogs all day yesterday, I've had 2 already today. Ugh.

Make that 3.

If you update the thread every time you smoke another cigarette you'll feel worse about yourself. Just go with the flow, smoke if you want to, vape in between, and tomorrow's a new day. Just my 2 cents.

Sorry! That was just so funny

Contact Eric - he's a great vendor - ask him about combining orders - but do it quickly! He's fast!

Isn't he tho'?!?

Hi, I'm back & I'm lazy so I'm pasteing this over from my first home page so......
Okay! Okay!
I'm not finished reading but started to feel like I should stop and let you know
I'm back home ... nothing was done except for an x-ray. Surgeon doesn't think the
teeth need removing. He say's I'm having "menophause" in the mouth
Stop taking any new med's started this year ... there are a few.
Does not think vaping is an issue ... Switch from four Tylenol to 4 Motrin's every 8 hours with 2 Tylenol every 3 hours on top of that. Stop all previous med's & mouth washes given as they are probably causing more problems than they are helping.
(p.s. I'm crabby due to lack of food & beverage, fixing that right now & just took a pain pill)
Uuuuh ...... there's probably more. Oh yeah, come back in two weeks if nothing is better Although I have to say he was very nice and get this ... did not charge me a dime
If things don't "start" to improve in two weeks then we will begin blood work for BMS and hormoral levels to see what to do next.

Awesome Dale!! Menopause the old heifer!! At least you got this diagnosis on his dime and not yours. Hopefully you won't have any issues stopping your meds, and your pain goes away!

menopause in your mouth? Never heard of that one - unless you're referring to things "said"....

 

[daleron]

Hmmm...this is VERY interesting...


An Immune System and Thyroid Upside for Tobacco? Anatabine / Anatabloc Dietary Supplement | National Academy of Hypothyroidism

THAT is very interesting! Wonder where one get's that?

Crossin' my finger's & toe's! I've been thinking about ditching some of that stuff anyway ... doesn't seem to be doing much good.

Me neither Jazz, but that is exactly what he said "menopause" in the mouth Might make sense since I'm pretty much full blown "post" menopausal & haven't had a lot of issues with it so far. Lot's & lot's of hot flashes but that's the worst of it. I'm sure my hormones are all wacky tho' since I don't take anything for it except OTC med's ... which I'll be stopping as of today Heaven know's what's gonna happen ....... poor DH!

Thanks! If I ever do get straightened out here with the mouth I may try that
NO new med's for now tho' until we figure out what the "exact" problem is.

Well my word!!!
Wouldn't ya' just know I'ld have something "very rare"

 

[jessermay]

Hey all, it's been a busy couple days for me, I've been trying to keep up with all the convos but you guys are chatty
I hope everyone is doing good!

 

[kittyn]

Yay for potential answers Dale! The fact that he evidently listened and has SOMETHING to try, for free too, is amazing. Alsoamazing that he's not trying to yank teeth out.

My little experiment yesterday trying to figure out precisely how much I smoke? Ha. Ha. Yeah, wayyyy to much and I don't wanna think about it. I've been vaping the GLV Freak Show, as it was pretty tasty out of the mail and I needed something smoother than what I had. It's pretty good, a little flat tasting but that I'm assuming has a lot to do with the whole 'fresh out of the mail' thing, as its been filling out pretty nicely over the past couple days.

Unfortunately I got banned from vaping it in the car. Evidently it makes my husband want sugar cookies and I'm now committed to making him either sugar cookies or oatmeal cookies sometime over the weekend. Whoops.

So, I'm back to digging to find something acceptable to both my palate and sore throat AND the males ability to avoid bakeries. I was specifically told to find something, ANYTHING, else vapable though, so would you consider that the OK to buy more juice this week?

 

[GtrSoloist]

Wow lots of posts since last night.

Dale: I'm totally with you, not being able to drink would be like torture. I also share your apprehension for being put under. I once woke up during surgery and that was not fun. Sometimes they don't even really put you out, but the medication effects you so strongly that you don't have any recollection of what happened, but were conscience for it the whole time.

It sounds like the oral surgeon is on top of things. Obtaining a correct diagnosis is often 90% of the battle.

Erised: Grats on the new job!

Lox: I'm going to look into Lecithin. I've had a lot of stomach issues since my appendix ruptured a few years back.

Notorious: I tend to like fruity, sweet flavors as well. I dislike every tobacco flavor I've tried which seems odds considering how long I smoked.

Kittyn: That definitely sound like an "okay."

Bake the cookie's & keep Vaping!!

Oh I think that's a definite A-Okay!

Yeah, I'm really ashamed I'm such a fraidy cat about that at my age, but there you have it
Oh and trust me I have made up for not drinking earlier I've lost track of how many cups of coffee & glasses of tea I've had!

 

[FinallyQuit]

Jessermay, so glad to see you posting, poke your head in more often, we don't bite!!

Kittyn, that was total shopping spree permission. "Now, honey, I have here 30 bottles of juice, you just tell me which ones you don't like, I'll pass them on to someone else and replace them as needed." He'll either stop complaining or you'll have a juice extravaganza!!

I'm getting the girls ready to go to their sleepover. The little one's daycare hosts 2 each summer, and since the big one used to attend the same daycare, she wants big sissie to come or she's NOT going. Big sissie said sure, so I'm alone tonight. Can't figure out what to do next!! Drop off at 8:30 pm and pickup at 7:00 am. That's way too early to be up on a Saturday, so I'll probably just go shopping, pick up take out, and enjoy the solitude!

Hope you all have a wonderful evening. Lori, are you out there? You are on my mind a lot today, guess I'm worried about you a little.

 

[daleron]

Wow FQ!
That sounds great
You need some down time to pamper yourself!

I'm a little concerned about Lori too

 

[kittyn]

Glad I'm not the only one who can take that as HECK YEAH SHOPPING TIME!

Unfortunately we had to tag and register the car today, so I can't go ridiculous with it, but definitely eyeballing stuff now.

FQ-7AM... On a saturday? Talk about talking all the fun out of a no kids night, sheesh.

That certainly looks like a green light to me! Ohhh, and while you're online shopping -- I saw these really hawt red pumps that I'd just luv!!! (I'll PM the link)

Yeah that! What if I tied one on [I would have in the old days] and had the hangover from you know where and didn't get there on time? The director would bring them home and give me a very stern lecture!! Yeah, school supply shopping it is. Can't buy either one of them clothes without them being there, but I can still pick out cool binders and folders and pens. At least, some of the time. . .

 

[jessermay]

Hi FG! It's been such a busy couple days & hopefully calming down for the wknd & I can find time to chat with you all! Enjoy your night off!

Dale I'm so glad to hear things went ok for you today & you have found a dr willing to get to the root of the problem, sometimes that's half the battle- finding someone to really help & not just treat symptoms.

Kit, shop away girl!!!!

I have to share something that happened this eve with my baby.....

I started using sign language for simple words as I talk & communicate with the baby who will be 9 months old on Monday, just little things like eat drink milk no yes please thank you & tonight when we got home & settled in and I asked him if he wanted to eat while signing eat at the same time like I do every time & he signed eat back to me! It was amazing & I was so proud! This kid is catching on & using signs already, it's awesome!!!

Thanks for letting me share my proud mommy moment!

 

[FinallyQuit]

Wow, what a fabulous accomplishment! Proud mama all day long!

 

[ShariR]

You will be fine. Everyone is afraid to be put to sleep. Most just don't talk about it. Much better than to be awake through the procedure. Good luck today.

I need to get this off my chest, hope you don't mind ... it has nothing to do with vaping.

I'm scared to death to be put to sleep. When I had my son 25 years ago it was an emergency c-section.
During the surgery I came up out of it and got loose from the restrainst and started fighting them because
I thought I was dying. (couldn't breathe) I had the bruise's and swelling's to prove it so no, I didn't imagine it.
Afterward's I ask the doctor what happened & he got all defensive & angry with me & refused to discuss it so
I know he (they) screwed up royally somewhere during the procedure Needless to say I never saw him again.
And yes, I know things have changed since then & they do things better ... doesn't change how I feel.
