Make sure that you stay well-hydrated (extra water) and watch out for sugar cravings during the first 72 hours or so while your body is detoxing from the nicotine; the extra water will help your body clear the nicotine out quicker and also help your liver and kidneys work at their best.
You may feel a bit brain-fogged and tired for a bit as well while your brain is getting used to functioning without that regular nicotine hit; within 2 weeks that should be gone as well.

OK, so I'm not wanted in 7 states for aggressive behavior/violent crimes. That has to be good.
Yeah, I didn't know if it was the adhesive or the nicotine. Made me raw. I've not had problem with tape otherwise, but then I dont' think I've ever worn any for the time I'd wear the patches (which I can't recall the timetable). T
You are SO right on the water. I'm bad at that anyway and really need the kick in the pants. Will do. I'm also bloating from TOM, so the water should be helpful all the way around.
Have been foggy and tired, but I was chalking it up to the TOM stuff. Maybe it's a combo thing. Appetite was pretty much shot all day due to cramping, but then kicked in this evening. Only wanting something sweet. Detox? TOM? Both? I dont' think I care, just want to get thru it without hurting myself too much.
Thank you again on the water tip. Something I really should know and be doing anyway!
