Day 172

[Keith0617]

Hi I'm Nodnarb. I'm on day 172 of my quit. A little bit about me, I'm 27. I worked for a paint shop and I enjoy anything outdoor related. Sorry my introduction is late. Since day 1 on this site I took my quit seriously but today I realized the brotherhood and how much others care about you here. So last week I went to the ER for a panic attack. They did all kinds of tests and blood work and my heart is good. But the ct scan on my chest showed swollen lymph nodes. They sent me to an oncologist doctor today. They told me there's a possibility the nodes could be lymphoma. So before the panic attack I felt fine and had no symptoms of anything now I feel like crap and obviously my chest hurts and I feel like I can feel everything in my body. My anxiety has been through the roof.  Big thanks to @SmokeyMountainExpress for talking to me for a little tonight. Anyone else ever have a similar experience?

Glad you started a intro.  I hope someone has experienced something similar and can help calm your anxiety.

@Nodnarb
I’ve had different experiences but I think I get where you are coming from. My suggestion would be don’t jump to conclusions. We can talk ourselves into almost anything. Follow the doctors orders, get the appropriate tests, and then you will have facts. Just about every quitter I know has experienced some time of physical issue that eventually goes away. For example, doesn’t your mouth feel sooooooooo much better today? Hang in there and let your network of friends and fellow quitters support you. You are not alone.
