Sam, As the members have advised, this is normal and will pass :) Take the time to check with your doctor to rule out anything medical, if this persists. Great job on 4 days! Josie, Support Specialist

Sam, You are doing great! If that feeling persists more than a few weeks I would get it checked out, unless of course you are running a fever, in that case I would get it checked right away. Just don't let it stop your quit!

Thanks Janna for your response. Good to know that I am not alone with this feeling. I don't feel particularly anxious so hopefully it's just the healing process. I would think that our bodies will go through a number of changes - all positive ones ! Well I'm just going to keep an eye on this and yes, if it does persist I will consult my dr. I was also thinking that maybe it's the high levels of heat, smog and humidity in the air - we're having a heat wave in Toronto so maybe that's a contributing factor. Either way I'm aware of the feeling and won't let it get worse than it is right now. Thanks again :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]6/23/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 4 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 80 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $29.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 41 [B]Seconds:[/B] 26

Sam: I experienced this too. I actually am still having it once in a while. Really weird heavy feeling/ tight feeling. I have read that it is anxiety, but I have also read that it is your body healing itself. I am not sure which, but I just wanted to ease your mind that you are not alone. Others experience this too. If it doesn't ease up in a few days or worsens, I would probably talk to or see your doc. Great job on sticking with it!!!!!

Has anyone else felt a heaviness in their chests in their non smoking journey ? I'm into day 5 and I feel like I smoked 2 packs in a short period of time. My chest isn't congested, I'm not coughing up or even clearing my throat - just this feeling of heaviness. Let me know if this has happened to you. Thanks :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]6/23/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 4 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 80 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $29.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 37 [B]Seconds:[/B] 46
