@JoeyinAL

How are you doing Bro?  Don't see you on roll yet?  Certainly hope you are still clean but this is a hard row to hoe on your own.  Guessing you've tried in the past and failed...much like ALL of us.  Posting roll is a small price to pay for freedom...and it works.  Please reach out if I can help in any way.  Good luck my friend.

Hell yeah man, you got this. Just remember all this stuff will be temporary. I'm no expert, only been free 2 weeks, but I am over the worst physical part and I am sure you can do it too.

Hey guys. Thanks for the replies.  Nicotine free since 7pm last night. Sorry i dont know how to find all the right groups on here from my phone. So far so good. A little nervous, foggy etc.  but its manageable.  I kicked a 15 year meth habit cold turkey.  And im gonna kick kodiaks ass too.  Stay safe and god bless!!

I have know are you still dipping now? If you are its time to pitch everything you have and go cold turkey. You already have withdrawal symptoms from cutting back. Why not just quit it all and join. Its on you to do this and we are here to help. We are not docs but we can be a huge support group. Just dump it all and go post up my friend. They already provided the link and if you need help just ask. If you screw it up don't worry somebody will fix it and get you set straight. If you want my digits let me know in a pm as we all need quit buddies as thats what makes it stronger.

Hi Joey. I'm not in the medical field, so those numbers don't mean much to me.

Yeah, my only idea, thought, and opinion is to cut back to zero cans of Kodiak. Quit completely.

Go to your November quit group: https://ktcforum.org/index.php?topic=15852.0

Learn how to post roll. Make your promise to remain dip/nicotine free for 24 hours. Go back tomorrow, and every tomorrow afterward, and make the same promise again.

Keep drinking lots of water. Watch your diet. Get more physical activity. Get plenty of sleep.

^^^ He’s right, you know....
[spoiler=signature stuff]Leonidas nickname is Dyson because he he sucks like a cracked out meth whore - Candoit

Could I quit without KTC? Probably. Let's say it's 99.9% yes, I could quit without KTC. That 0.1% risk of failure isn't worth it to me. That 0.1% is enough to keep me here, long into the future, just to be sure.-srains918

Not sure who Batdad is, but he keeps coming up as an asshole =P so he can be an asshole if it helps others quit lmao. BTW who is batdad? I'm newer so it might be something I am missing. -evillen

With all the craziness swirling around us, it's nice to have certain constants that we can always count on, like Batdad is an asshole. -Rewire

Quitters I have had the honor to meet
Viking, MNxEngineer, PMILS, Weedsta, Natro, Jenahen, Bucky, Palpatine, Gassy, JohninSLP, DonkeyMN, ReWire, Clemte, Wepdoc [/spoiler]

Recently had labwork done. Its not good. I have minimal heart failure, take diuretics, and dipped tobacco for 37 years.
Labs were always normal until now.
So on july 13 my labs were
Rbc 6.17
Hematocrit 57.6
Hemoblobin 19.6
Cardiologist said to follow up with my normal dr.
I thought i might be dehydrated so made sure to drink alot and went from a can of kodiak per day to 2-3 cans a week.
On july 28 labs were
Rbc 5.99
Hematocrit 54
Hemoglobin 18.9
Iron 166
Reticulocytes 1.5%.
Reticulocyte count .0980
She referred me to a hematologist. My appt is Oct2.
Ive been having some symptoms for the past few months.  A few hours a day my feet are cold but it always goes away. Very few minor headaches. And some nervouseness. Also heavy legs and a feeling of unbalance. My symptoms are getting better and the numbers improved. I have a recheck on Aug25 and will see how numbers are then.
Any ideas, thoughts, or opinions are welcome.
Thanks And looks like im about to KILL THE CAN
