hello. my name is amy.
i am 24 years old. me and my husband were going to quit cold turkey starting today. i've been smoking since i was 14. i have POTS-palpatations-irregular heart beats-hypotension-hypoglocimia. i was fine with the irriatability and the cravings and all that but now my heart is really starting to have sharp pains and my vision keeps trying to go black like it does when im about to pass out. i can deal with all the other but it scares me when my heart hurts. and i also have a 3yr old and a 1 yr old i stay at home with, so ofcourse it scares me more. my question is: is it healthy for me to quit cold turkey or should i gradually quit? im beginning to think i should have done this gradually, but i didnt think it would make my heart hurt the way it has. please advise. i'd like your honest opinions. thank you in advance.
