Nicotine and HRT?

[Janet_Girl]

I posted in my blog, but week two on Chantix.  Trying never hard this time.  I have to for me.

there was a program on today about a couple wanting to marry but the woman was a 40 a day smoker and guy hated it.  so she went for acupunture and it cured her immediately.   might be worth looking into.
no idea of cost.

I hate to admit it, but I recently started stress smoking again.

I told my therapist & M.D. this morning via email as part of a routine check-in process. My doctor replied an hour later:

STOP SMOKING IMMEDIATELY!

A friend of mine had a stroke because she was a heavy smoker taking estrogen!
More commonly people can get pulmonary emboli that will kill you dead!

STOP SMOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I quit on the spot, even though I'm not happy about it.
