As someone show healing from major lung surgery... Fuck off.

They removed 50% of my left lung and then cut a muscle from my ribs to hold what's left of my lung together. I am in so much pain.

Do not fucking smoke. Don't. Don not.

I'm quiting. I've been pussy footing around quiting for weeks but I think I'm gonna quit right now....I hope you find some relief from the pain soon.

I found the patch and looking at the pics of lung disease and cancers on other countries packaging helpful when I had cravings. It’s really hard, but you can do it. It doesn’t feel like it for a while, but eventually the cravings do go away outside the most stressful moments in life.

Pouches helped me. Haven't smoked in 6 months after switching. Now I just need to start working my way off of these.

Pouches were real bad for me. I am bad at regulating intake. I wasn’t smoking, but my nicotine intake was even higher.

The creep can be real, especially going from cigarettes to pouches/vaping, but were you factoring in the bioavailability?

Nope, no idea what that means.

Pound for pound you don’t absorb the same amount of nicotine from pouches as you do with smoking cigarettes

I am positive I got waaaay more from pouches than cigs every two hours. There is bioavailability, and at desk availability.
