Anyone else got "Flu" from forced abstinance of nicotine?!


Question:

Anyone else got "Flu" from forced abstinance of nicotine?

The company i work for will not allow it's night shift team any place to smoke. We are not allowed off premises for "security reasons", and are given paid breaks to compensate.

We have just about got round to accepting this and after a week I seem to have contracted Flu like symptoms.

I have read that this can be part of the Nicotine withdrawl process, problem is I still smoke before and after my shift, all be smoke less but I am still smoking.

Anyone else going through Flu symptoms when quitting?


Answers:

This happened to me 3 weeks ago. I was a 20 pack a day man, until I joined a gym. For the first two weeks, I was coughing up a severe amount of black phlegm, but it seems to have cleared itself up. I don't cough from cigarettes anymore. This is normal and a good thing. You're body will thank you for it.
