This thread was a big trigger for me - so **"" triggers!!!

F#@k you to hell and back Ultra Lights...take your cottony ass and buzz off...

F*** the Marlboro Man and the horse he rode in on.

Went to get my prescription for my Ventolin rescue inhaler today and saw when they rung me up that the cost was zero. So instead of just keeping quiet I told them and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was generic and my insurance covered it. Since I only have generic drug coverage I've been paying $64.00 a month for it so big savings for me. THEN I cashed in a $5.00 lottery ticket and bought three more of the same tickets with the $15.00 I won AND WON $500.00!!!!!!! So all in all a pretty darn good day

We all know the more known problems from years of smoking (Cancer, COPD, Heart problems and such) but their are some problems that are lesser known. Today I am going to the dentist to start fixing my mouth. Most of the problems are tied in with my smoking over those many years, something I really did not think about. For the past year it has been very difficult for me to eat and also a lot of pain. Now I have been dealing with COPD (at this point stage 1 and has done much better since quitting and not really advancing at this point) but now I have to deal with all these upcoming dental appointments to include 3 different appointments for oral surgery (first this morning) then several appointments to replace several missing teeth. I do not enjoy going to the dentist but most of all I do not enjoy what this will be doing to my wallet. At this point it is going to be close to $20,000.00 (there goes all the money I have been saving from my quitting). The main point here is not sympathy for me but to let others know to include those that are lurking and have yet to make the choice to quit is that you really need to understand everything that smoking cigarettes can do to you. It all sneaks up on you and will cost you both to health and to your wallet. I have done this to myself and I must take accountability for my actions but hopefully others will see this and do some serious thinking!!!!!!! Quit now so that you can live a better life in so many ways!!!!! Sorry about the long post but I get really anxious about going to the dentist, oh alright -- scared, and it is about an hour before I can take the sedative -- anyway good day to all.

F*** Marlboro Ice. Think you're so cool, don't you!!

Nope

Nope!

NOPE

F_______Marlboro Light - the short ones. Another F_____ing attempt to make us think smoking light ones would be better for us!

F _____!!! Fill in the blank with your former cigarette brand if you want to tell it to "F off" .* F Vantage!!! *Yes, I know we have to accept personal responsibility for starting to smoke and ultimately becoming addicted. But I still hate RJ Reynolds, the maker of my former brand Vantage, and I'll never give them another penny. I'm free now and that's how life should be lived.

NOPE - Smoking sucks!

Thanks all, back from the dentist now and bit sore (at least I have meds for the pain). 5 more appointments and two will be more oral surgery -- take one bridge out and removal of some more teeth, then the dental implant surgery when the healing is done. At least I am getting it taken care of, though it will cost money at least the money I am saving from quitting is going to able to pay a good deal of that

Yeah - oral surgery sucks for sure (and is costly)! It's not the actual surgery so much as the aftermath healing. At least now you will heal faster and it will be worth the $$ you put into it because you are no longer creating the problems that got you to this point so that's one good thing. Another disease closely related to smoking that isn't in the forefront much is Buerger's disease: "Virtually everyone diagnosed with Buerger's disease smokes cigarettes or uses other forms of tobacco, such as chewing tobacco. Quitting all forms of tobacco is the only way to stop Buerger's disease. For those who don't quit, amputation of all or part of a limb is sometimes necessary."

NOPE!

F*** Camel Lights!

F#=#_ Marlboro Light 100's!
