I am so over my vein situation in my right leg.One has never totally closed and keeps getting knotty and at work last nite it was throbbing badly-I was limping.The doc is fitting me in late tomorrow afternoon but told me in the meantime to put HOT compresses on it and take 2 aspirin (to thin the blood) every 6 hours..my stomach is on fire and I think the aspirin started my ALWAYS heavy period to come sooner..now its really gonna be bad w/ the aspirin--which I never take due to extreme ERR-menstrual flow. Lord knows what pain he will inflict on me..getting a needle jabbed into your vein (to draw out old blood) hurts like bloody crap. I am cranky. i have my regular Doc. appt earlier to get my anxiety meds filled( ie xanax). I am gonna need them. I was taking Prozac for my PMDD(meaning I have BAD irritability at this special time of the month)but stopped cuz it gives me headaches. I am gonna ask for Wellbutrin, it will help and alsomakes you not want to smoke so much. I have been bad on the smoking--I confess at least 5 a day.Yep, I caved. I have been living with my secret.Well its out..I could blame it on my mom being sick--or having my kids around me along w/ ALL their buddies 24/7.Anyhow..i amresetting my meter--new TOTAL quit--Monday 7/14. I am getting my teeth in office whitened that day--I have had this appt. for awhile.It was to be a reward for NOT smoking. NOW its the reason I have to totally stop..Its not cheap, I wont ruin the job by smoking.Its been tuff-I cant do much at the gym cuz of my leg..I want it all over with...Ok i have vented...FOR NOW!!Please pray my leg heals!!xoxo mel

>>Why am I so weak

**You're not weak Mel ..

Quitting smoking is hard enough ..

To have to do it where you have it in your job makes it even more difficult!

>>gonna try again

**Which is why you will succeed .. because you'll never quit quitting :)
