I have smoked for many years, I've quit several times and always went back, unfortunatley I enjoyed smoking. I have recently quit again it's been 5 months and I could light one up right nowand enjoy it. I really had to quit, I had a stroke 3 years ago and have mild emphasema. Will I continue to be smoke free? I don't know, it's hard when people around you smoke. I inhale deeply when I smell it. I keep telling myself "you can have one if you want one"if you tell yourself no, you'll want it more.
It was a week after my 42nd birthday, I woke up inthe morning and couldn't speak correctly, I would think of what I wanted to say but maybe one word would come out and wouldn't make sense. When I drank water it dribbled out and my left hand didn't work right. My mouth hung open, I had no control over it. My boyfriend told me I looked like I had a stroke, but did that alarm me? no...I got up took a shower and kept looking at myself in the mirror. I finally went to the hospital.
I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in Jan.'08. I was kinda relieved and actually happy it was Fibro. I guess I was glad it wasn't anything terminal like cancer. I've had migraines all my life and had a stroke on Oct.2004, they think it may have been migraine related but they can't tell me for sure. The Fibro adds to my headaches, which scares me because I don't want to have another stroke. So I am hoping to meet some great people in this group so we can talk about Fibromyalgia.
