Second Attempt

Second Attempt

I am one to say I fell off the wagon on this quest to give up smoking.  I truly did suck at it.    

Recently, I have been quite ill, in a lot of pain.   I was even sent to the hospital, where they even sucked at their job because they just didn't do any real investigations, considering they lost my urine sample?? Pathetic.  

Anyways, one of the requests from my doctor to the hospital was to investigate if I had Diverticulitis.  What is it you may ask?    Its a form of IBS, where there is a inflammation or infection of the colon, gastro tract.   I haven't been diagnosed with this as such, but found out a close family member has been, and was given guidance as to how to eliminate certain foods in my diet to stop the lower abdominal pain.   Well, I have been doing this for a month now and realise now I can't have any  creams, including sour cream,  I can't eat Chinese foods, I can't have some curries and certain spices in my food. 

Yesterday, I finally went back to my quack and asked him, whether it was possible that I too could have this.   He advised that it is possible but the first thing we must do is get me off the cigarettes .   EEPS. :)

I have been prescribed Champix and began my first dose of it this morning.  OMG, I have been on this before, but forgot what cigs taste like on it LOL.  Even my coffee doesn't taste the same :(.  When I am feeling the urge to have a cig I get this real FOUL taste in my mouth, Its like someone grabbed a dirty stinking sock and rubbed it on your tongue and down your throat HAHA.   Seriously its a disgusting taste lol.   All good. I know I am not supposed to have a cig, but like last time with it I was able to quit fully by day 7.   I have until day 14 to set a date and just don't smoke anymore.    I am going to do this, and do it right!!   Just a day at a time.    As one of my wonderful sisters have said to me before......... Rome wasn't built in a day!

So once again I will resort to documenting it and see how I go.
