Thanks chickstarr and Casey for the posts Your posts make sense, it is so itchy so i thought i might have bugs there :blush: as i said i looked and its not really dry either. Thanks for the knowledge about the carbon monoxide leaving casey--it makes sense.. Is carbon monoxide crossing brain and barrier casey?? actually filling up in the brain too?? hope you understand my question?? The dizziness make also sense, but its annoying feels like im going to pass out, scared to drive car actually, and feels really weird "swaying here and there" sort of :blush: What about forgetfulness?? I have today realised i forget things! Is that also normal?? ann [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 7 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 347 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $111.3 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 5 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30

Hi, Aekvall. The dizziness is normal, pretty much every quitter goes through it. The cause is carbon monoxide from smoking is leaving your body. It passes. The itchy scalp I've not heard of. But there are a lot of chemical changes our bodies go through when we quit smoking, so itchy scalp may be one of them. Could it be from all the showers you took fighting craves the last few days? Just a thought. Look at you!! 7 days quit!! That's awesome. Congratulations on getting through hell week. Super job! You need to reward yourself now. You've certainly earned it. Keep up the good quit, Aekvall. :) Shevie [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/23/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 386 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 7,728 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1466.8 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 72 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 48 [B]Seconds:[/B] 20
