So after waking up chomping at the bit, ready to take the tablet, after a HIDEOUS night spent coughing (4.24am I managed to get to sleep), I was talking to someone who said about the risks of taking champix with asthma inhalers. I'm not asthmatic, but with this cough, sometimes ventolin is the only thing that helps ease my chest and actually allow me to breathe without coughing. Anyway, I'm on Day 2 of antibiotics, so once the cough's gone, I won't be taking the inhalers - ergo, will have to wait till Monday/Tuesday to start Champix. This actually fits in well, as the husband can't start HIS till he hears back from a specialist, as he's on a drug trial, where he had to sign a form saying he wasn't on any medication - and his specialist never got back to him yesterday giving him the OK - so he's contractually obligated not to start his - he's the only person in New Zealand on the trial, and his doctor takes it rather seriously. So we'll start together in a couple of days.
Now I know there's likely people already rolling their eyes saying "Yeah YEAH.. Excuses already" but trust me - TRUSSSSSSST ME, we are doing it, I haven't been this enthusiastic about quitting for a LONG time - but I neeeeeeed those inhalers to actually give me a few hours sleep each night. And I've had these antibiotics before and on Day 3 or 4, VOILA, no more cough. Will be good to go. *nods*.. Please check back on Tuesday at the latest - I guarantee you'll see my Real Day 1.
Lol... What excuses will Tuesday bring eh? *Taps fingers and raises eyebrows*
