A very good afternoon to you all - my dear friends in MS cyber land!
Hubby got back from his hospital appointment much sooner than I expected.
His consultant is on her jollies, so he saw an RA nurse specialist.
She showed him his chest xray and it showed a healthy heart and no tumours. But there is some shadowing in the lower area of his lungs, which is caused by smoking. he said he filled up and had to fight back the tears!
He then told her he is doing well on a stop smoking course and is down to less than half his usual amount in just 7 days.
So he has to go back in a month to see if they want to try another drug…he doesnt! He says hell keep taking paracetomols for the pain!
That is great news! The very best of luck to Hubby to quit the ciggies. I have never smoked but my sister did and I know how difficult she found it to give up. She said she found it useful to treat each day as a new beginning. The very best of luck!!
Hey Poll Really great news. I had a feeling it was going to be good! I’m so pleased for you both, now you can relax and get on with your lives. Best wishes Tree66 xx
I have now stopped the e-cig as I’m feeling so ill right now I can’t handle anything… everything is sending me into huge fatigue meltdowns. I’m using NiQuitin mini’s and am determined this time not to go back on the fags. Haven’t had a fag since October 1st and stopped the e-cig on Sunday.
Tell your hubby that I’m going through it with him. I’m a 44 year smoker and really think it’s probably about time… te he…
so pleased! If he’s giving up because of this then something good has come out of this horrid experience. Suz xx
