Smoker for 30+ years.
Hi everyone,
Found this board while googling, some great reading here.

I've been a smoker for 37 years and thought I'd never be able to quit.
I started taking Champix (as it's called here in Oz) and have been smoke free now for 3 weeks.

I've had none of the side effects that others have experienced except for restless nights but that's no big issue.

Cheers
