Smoking: Congratulations on your decision and your desire to quit smoking! That is one of the best decisions you can make for your health in your life. The good news is by stopping now your lungs will repair themselves and within months be basically back to normal. Your risk of cancer from smoking will be gone. I recommend using OTC patches and following directions to wean, need help see your doctor.
