I'm the furthest thing from a doctor Wooly. But I can tell you I went through some weird shit in the beginning while my mind and body were healing. Plus not everything is dip related. See your Doctor, but I can tell you having a dip sure as hell wont solve anything!

34 days no Kodiak is a blessing indeed but anxiety and fear can be debilitating. How normal is it to fell tightness in the neck, typically left side? Is this part of detoxing the body or possibly not related. It's not like a sore throat/esophagus, seems to be outside either node or muscle related. Of course everything on Google has to mention cancer which is obviously cause for concern. Weird thing about it up until I quit I never noticed it. Not an option for me but I'm Not going to lie, I have wondered if I just put a dip in maybe it will go away I do have an annual exam scheduled for next Tuesday.


Im still trying to figure out this site. Is roll call just for posting roll or isit for comments as well?
Hey Bro.. Take Rdad's advice.

Regarding the sight yes you can post comments with your brother and sisters in May. And or you can post comments here. This into page is yours like a personal journal to help you remember your quit and suck. It also helps those reading.

Regarding the throat... I had problems swallowing in the beginning because my muscles were freaking out. I would go run and drink water... That helped. What didn't help was sitting still, like watching TV or a movie.
I would hang in there and see the doctor Tuesday. If your really concerned go see a doctor now. It will ease your mind. And don't worry about the money..... We are talking about saving your life.

When I was like 40, I had a new company and too many employees, thought something was wrong with my heart for weeks.... I finally just walked in to emergency room, thought I was having a heart attack... 2 hours of test, all good... Nervous gone, doctor told me to go run...

A dip, will not help it... It will only make your anxiety worse because of the regret....
Your climbing over a wall, stay on it, don't look down.. Keep your head up one small hand in front of the other. You are doing good and every day you are closer to being free of anxiety and fear...
81 days my fear has been replaced with a smile, Confidence and a new identity that honestly is crazy cool.

You can do it.. We're all right here with ya.

Planning to make a dental appt for a screening. I dread it but know it's something j need to man up and confront. Other than the receding gums i've known about lumps in lip for awhile not sure if to some degree that's normal. I've had fellow dippers say it's just glands in the past and for some stupid reason took that as a pass. Yesterday I was feeling around and found one tender but under the surface down in the pocket where cheek meets gums. I will never touch that poison again and will do my part in helping others steer clear of it.

Get it looked at so you can relax. I work in the medical field but since I am not a Ear Nose and Throat doc who specializes in oncology, I would be only guessing also. See you been quit a while, awesome. I am new, neck and lymph nodes hurting, swollen. Course they are probably just crying for some nicotine to make them hush.....Best of luck
