Glad to hear you are doing well!

I'm pretty good apart from the cold I've got. Been off medication for just over a month now & apart from a small slip up earlier this week my symptoms haven't gotten much worse. Hopefully things will continue that way!

I guess if my chest gets congested I'll have no choice but to switch to my nicotine mouthspray but for now as long as I don't have to keep using my inhaler then I'll probably get away with smoking.

Just sipping on a Honey & Ginger Lemsip now (I think it's the same as what you guys call Theraflu) & I guess I'll be having a quiet day.
I always get a bad cough when I give up smoking. I googled it to see if there was any basis behind it or if it was just me. Why do we cough so much after we quit smoking?

You might be better off waiting until your cold is gone at least before you stop, or try stop for a day or two and see what happens. If it gets worse it's probably not the best time to stop.

I'm in the same boat anyway, which sucks because I'm only after a bad cold and it seems it's back. I hope you feel better soon!

Anyway, I was supposed to go out today to a car show with my sister but found out it's €20 to get in and I just don't have that much money and money to do me the rest of the week, my parents aren't here so I can't borrow money. Raging, I got all ready to go, my hair took me ages and it's wasted now lol Boring crappy day to myself so! You guys will keep me company, right? Riiiight?

Thanks. Hope you are feeling better soon too... having two colds back-to-back sounds awful!

It's not that I'm going to try giving up smoking it's just that if my asthma starts to play up, smoking is the last thing I should be doing.... therefore taking a break from smoking until things are better might be a good idea.

Strangely enough though, I've never developed a cough when quitting smoking. I guess it's just one of those things... some people do & others don't.

Sucks that you got all ready for a day out then had to cancel... we'll do our best to keep you entertained though!

If that's the case yeah it might be a good idea to even cut back, if it where me (I smoke 20 p/d) I'd cut back to about 5. I have to be realistic myself as I have no willpower. I lost that a long time ago

I just hope the asthma doesn't flare up, that can be uncomfertable and even dangerous so make sure you've plenty of inhalers. Tip no. 2 from Mammy Paula

Yeah I was really looking forward to heading out, my sister offered me the money but I know she doesn't have it, she had to pay for the kids and her boyfriend so I wasn't going to take any money off her.

Entertainment Loial? A dance... via Youtube... this would suffice. Get to it

To be fair it's already playing up, just had to use my inhaler for a second time today. I think that's a sign to lay of the cigarettes for the moment.

You know it's strange, as I alluded to above this is the first flare up I've had this year which is something considering I've been smoking the whole time.

I was only diagnosed last year despite probably having occasional mild symptoms since I was a teenager. I think technically I have intermittent asthma since it generally doesn't affect me much apart from the occasional flare up.

Me, dance?! You have to be kidding right!

It really would be cringingly entertaining to watch though.

Well, I'm glad I stopped smoking earlier because my asthma is just getting worse. Had to use my inhaler 4 times today. I'd almost forgotten how **** it feels when you can't breath properly. It's worse than the cold that's causing it.

Guess I'll call my GP tomorrow. Might have to go on a course of steroids.
