gaban24	Hey, hang in there, you made the right decision. Remember, it's winter, colds are everywhere. You may be pretty healthy, but nobody can escape a cold all the time. Drink lots of orange juice, that will help you out. Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

darlin12009	keep up the good work. they say that whenever you go through a major life change, your immune system seems to take a dive, even if it a good change. i retired in dec, and i am never sick either, but have had this damned cold for over 4 weeks.. tough it out, it will get better great job, congratulations...

Mr. Peachy®	I quit in September and have been fine ever since. If quitting was easy (was for me, too), then start up again and see if that fixes it (it probably won't). If not, then you need to work on your immune system. There's lots of things you can do for that. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

religionbreedshate	That's because your body is going through withdrawal and feeling an artificial need for a poisonous substance (Nicotine). I encourage you to stick with it and do something else instead of smoking, like have sex, masturbate, drink water, eat fruits and vegetables, exercise, anything to keep from smoking.

byron101540	The first year that I have up smoking, I make 5 trips to the hosp My first since 1961, I felt like crap for about 15 months. Get into a rehab program and exercise to help work the stuff out . Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

David B	you are using post hoc reasoning to try and justify smoking again. Just because you've had colds since you quit doesnt mean that quitting caused the illnesses. At 6 weeks out you're over the first hump of addiction, I'd encourage you to continue. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

nickname	great job! I had similar problems after I gave up. I just attributed it to extra stress, and that makes you more suseptible. sp? Seemed to get better after about 4 months. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rjohnson442000	It's still going to take a while for your lungs to expel all of the tar that's been collecting there for a long time. That's where the bulk of your symptoms are stemming from. Your body thinks it's fighting off an infection and believe it or not it's a good thing. Just hang in there and all will be well in another month or so. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
