Nicorette Nausea



Recommended Posts

***No need to scold me for smoking.*** I already know it's bad and pathetic - "why would I start again?" I quit for my surgery and like any addiction, there's a reason it's called "addiction." I started back up about 3 months post-op. I need and want to quit again but am trying the Nicorette Lozenges this go around. It's making my stomach hurt and I feel sooo sick. I'm on the lowest possible dose and not even taking them as frequently as suggested. Anyone else experience this or have any info on if sleeve patients should even use them? I KNOW we aren't supposed to be smoking ... That's a given, but I find it odd my stomach doesn't hurt with a cigarette but does with the lozenges.

Try an electronic cigarette you can get different levels of nicotine. That is how I quit smoking going on three years. If I get an overwhelming urge I can take a drag of my electronic cigarette with zero nicotine. (This would happen if I was having a few drinks with friends. Hasn't happened since surgery [emoji1303])
Check out haloecigs.com depending on what you smoke, they have different flavors. I was a Marlboro light smoker and the tribeca is what helped me quit.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
