I do hope the doc had some good news or took good care of it.
Fingers crossed for you.

and yep I understand the panic

Thanks, dearie - luckily it turned out that it was vein inflammation.... so now I got some bloodthinning gel to put on it.... phew, but I'm still a tad worried. LOL.

[hafwit]

Shit. :-( Scary.

I'm sending you tons of vibes, even if it's false alarm.

[masteroth]

Thank you!!! Turned out to be vein infection, phew.....

Sounds like it's harmless from your comment, which I'm quite glad to hear about. But regardless, why wait until January 2nd to quit smoking? That's harmful regardless of whether or not this is a false alarm.

[masteroth]

True, true.... but if I'm going to succeed stopping, I have to be motivated and really have a set date. That date has always been january 2nd, but I totally know what you mean. Instead I'm trying to smoke about half of what I usually smoke.

[halfawake]

Fair enough - whatever works for you is good. Cutting in half sounds like a good plan.

Here's an idea: how about trying that cumulatively over time? Cutting in half what you normally smoke for October, then half of that in November, then half of that in December. That way you'll have almost quit by your target date.

[masteroth]

Mmm, it's a good idea - but I don't think I can do it. I'm the 'all-or nothing'-type. I think I'll stick to smoking as little as I can until January 2nd - and of course arrange a 'quit-smoking-course'..... it sucks, but I need to motivate myself somehow. Because I have to quit.

yay that it turned out to be something non-fatal! But jeepers lady, get off the BCP to something low-dose, and get off the cigs. ;) Welcome to the nicorette patch? Water cigarettes?

[masteroth]

I can't quit the BCP, because I have PCOs. I actually have a water cig, but it's not working for me. Instead I have decided to cut down to half of what I usually smoke until January 2nd. 4 months left of smoking.... yikes.

Late to this, but glad to hear it was nothing too serious. *hugs*

[masteroth]

Thanks, *Hugs*.....
My leg hurts as fuck, hehehe.... I hope the gel will do its job soon.
