That sounds like a horrible thing you went through Jillar. Very scary.  Glad you're back home now and making progress.  I'm not sure that would be the case if you hadn't quit smoking a few years ago.

Be sure to advocate for yourself when it comes to your medical care.  It can be very frustrating, but it's your life and welfare we're talking about.

Best wishes for a rapid recovery and peace of mind.

I'm home and what a journey,  I spent January 18-24 !n ICU with respiratory failure from a viral infection I caught from my husband. Ct scan came back terrible with severe emphysema and two nodules on my right lung. Diagnosis at that time was 50\50 that I would recover or go home with hospice.

 

Damn.  That's some bad action.

 

I hope you are on the road to recovery and feeling better now.

 

Stay strong and be well.

So very scary, Jillar.   I'm just glad that you've made it through the worst of it and are now back home where you can rest, regain your strength, and continue to surprise the doctors with your swift recovery.

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
