    Sue, I know this must be a hard thing to do so I think you are doing great. You didn't smoke the entire thing so I think you are doing a really good job. I have seen so many people try to quit smoking and not even last a day. Also Just think on how much money you will be saving after you quit. I know you can do it. Just keep thinking positive and you'll do fine. -hugs-

    Sorry I'm a little late on this. I'm glad to hear your doing well, and half isn't bad at all, most people can't just go from cigarrettes to none w/o having 1 or 2 here and there. I have a friend who gets severe migraine, when she feels a headache coming on she'll have 3 shots of expresso (the caffeine dilates the blood vessels allowing for better flow to alleviate the headache) + aleve or tylenol. It doesn't always work, but it might help if you feel one coming on since I think nicotine has the same effect of blood vessels.

    Thanks for the tip. I don't drink coffee though, I can't stand the taste even if it means possibly getting rid of a headache. I wonder if a couple bottles of MT Dew or hot Choc, or even the caffine pills would work?

    My migrane lasted one day but the headache lasted many days. Today is my first day without a headache since Sat.

    Still no cigs!
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    That's great!!! A couple of bottles of mountain dew or caffeine pills might help if you catch the headache early enough. Hopefully it won't be something you have to test out...
