well guys, I'm almost 2 weeks tobacco free.

I definitely feel better in the morning and don't have a bunch of weird phlegm. And my mouth finally feels normal and no cotton mouth or weird taste.

Congrats, i quit about 5 months ago. I still crave cigarettes when Im around them but seldomly when Im not. I still do non tobacco nicotine products tho so im halfway there lol

I think biopsy results were good. I guess I didn't get a total answer cuz they said they were all benign but one, they aren't saying malignant or benign just that it shows signs of hyperplasia n she asked what the chances were that id come in contact with contaminated water. Which is obviously 1000% . She said now that the polyps have been removed i shouldn't be needing to go all the time like this still. So she said im a complex case n should really only be going to the specialists at Northwestern, which is the other doctor i went to yesterday who told me get a new primary asap , zero strenuous activity , surgery tomorrow

I'm private sector. I actually do have a pension. They froze contributions about a decade ago, though. But I'll still get like $1500 a month when I retire out of it.

I had a pension for 30 years at my last job, but they liquidated it and I had to roll it over into my 401 of this present job. The big kicker is the amount of the payout was calculated out that I was only going to live to 72. I think i took a screwing cause both my parents are still alive, so i get to live broke in my late elder years.

I wanna be happy for ya, but i'm still wondering if u called me a kiss ass. lol

I didn't mean to imply YOU were a kiss ass, LOL.

I meant like, I had seen that done, and it was always the golden child that got picked. But maybe its worth looking into if it applies to you.

I was using snus. I liked the General brand swedish stuff when I could get it, but I'd settle for camel at the gas station. But it was $7 a can a day, and I was starting to feel a big divot in my gum where I put it at. So I said it was time to walk away. The first 2 days sucked pretty hard. And I still get a weird craving after dinner. But I'm glad I got rid of it.

My present company of 16 years was bought out about 2 years ago, and after they cleaned house of the old management, they all of a sudden realized the old timers knowledge is all they got.

I use rogue pouches but the gum divot still happens. Im down to the 3mg and i only use them at work or doing anything that causes elvated stress, which is usually only work, or working on my car lol. Theres lots of other products out there. I know many people dont like it but nicotine gum did me wonders if you use it right. I didnt know you were suppose to park it like a pouch after it starts to burn. I just kept chewing the shit. Nicorette is the best in my opinion you can get 200 pcs for about 50-60 bucks and a box lasts me almost a month if not more. Off brand is about 30 to 40 for the same amount. But since ive weened off quite a bit the pouches are alright for me. Just a fair warning tho if you use nicotine gum and dont chew gum often after the first day your jaw will be sore lol or at least mine was till i got used to chewing gum all the time.
