Hi Stewbum....I get what you are going through. Even though the nicotine is out of your system, for some reason it leaves lasting effects. I am quit a bit over 2 months and got a sinus infection/cold/whatever you want to call it, 3 weeks after I quit. It went away after 3 weeks and then came back, so I have it pretty much for over a month. I think quitting smoking, even though it's very healthy, gives us weird symptoms!!! I have also gone through equilibrium problems related to the sinus problem,. which is related to quitting, at least I believe.
I can't say about your confusion, but I'm sure someone can chime in about it. Quitting smoking is a wonderful thing, BUT, for some reason it makes lots of bad symptoms that we never went through. The first time I quit, I never had anything like what I'm experiencing now, but I think that is because I was on Chantix, and now I did a weaning method. Who knows what goes on with our bodies!
Hang in there and talk to people on this board because there are many that I'm sure went through at least one of your symptoms! Good luck!!
Congratulations Doreen!!! What an amazing accomplishment you have achieved!!! And thank you so much for being on this forum and helping me through some very difficult times in my quit only a couple short months ago! I look forward to sharing many more happy accomplishments with you! Have a great day, my friend, all the best to you!!
