Avatar n tn A tip that someone gave me, was to buy a fresh bunch of mint leaves ( keep them refrigerated) to use instead of the pouches. Every time you feel the urge to dip, reach for a mint leaf instead. There is mint snuff which is made from mint and it is a non-tobacco product, but it cost about as much as the real stuff...
Avatar n tn This means that you must not smoke while using these products. If you do, you may develop serious side effects caused by an overdose of nicotine. Nicotine replacement must not be used by pregnant or nursing women. With any nicotine substitute, it’s always wise to check with your doctor to see if there are medical reasons you should not use these products. take look here www.ellisfischel.org/thoracic/smoking.
Avatar f tn I am 22 years old, and have been smoking for 3 & a half years (about a pack a day) I have quit 2/3 times but it is never succesful. As of now, I am trying to quit again. I had been succesful for five days and I just took 3 puffs of a cigarette (which I feel guilty for.) I am trying to mainly stick to cold turkey and if I'm really craving the Nicotine, I have been chewing the Nicorette 4G gum. I feel very depressed without smoking, and I know this is a common symptom.
1006035 tn?1485575897 [10] Menthol is derived from plants in the Labiatae or Lamiaceae (mint) family. Menthol is a component of Menthe piperita (peppermint) and is the main ingredient in peppermint oil.[14] Several case reports have highlighted menthol as a potent allergen. Camarasa and Alomar reported on a 26-year-old female who presented with a 2-year history of scaly lesions with erythema, concentrated around her mouth, upper lip, and dorsal central fingers.
Avatar m tn You provide an invaluable service through this website. I found it very strange that i could feel the effects of the mint while I was wearing a condom. I guess I figured if the mint could get through so could everything else, but it sounds like I was in a very low risk situation.
Avatar n tn I have discolored lips also from smoking though. My bottom lip in center is very red or very pick. Rest of lip around that discoloration is normal color. Can't wear lipstick especially reds because my lips look very uneven. is there anyway to get this redness or pinkish toned downed to get back to narmal skin color. Not pretty at all.

Avatar m tn Marijuana can cause panic attacks in some people. Mainly in people who have been smoking for a long time, however, I suffered panic attacks after only 4 months of smoking. Marijuana stimulates the pleasure cells in your brain. If you wan't a scientific answer do a web search. Personally, marijuana affects on me were : increased taste, increased hunger, increased sense of hearing, increased sexual pleasure, increased interest in simple or mundane activities, increased paranoia, and sedation.
4430052 tn?1355003242 I've been looking around and not finding a direct answer to this question. Is peppermint okay to having during the first trimester? What I want isn't peppermint candy, or tea. It's a peppermint water, that is already bought and prepared from the store. All that's in it is purified water and mint. I also have this other drink. Made by the same company that's Chocolate Mint water. It just just has purified water, mint and coco essence.

Avatar f tn re at even higher risk of complications) and smoking, it benefits no one least of all your children. Reaching out is the first step and it's wonderful that you have. Now you just need to take the next step and stick with it. It IS possible, and it likely won't be easy but stopping an addiction never really is.
Avatar n tn i also have alot of random thoughts and alot of things remind me of people usual they just pop into my head. im trying to figure out whats going on and if it will just go away?
Avatar m tn You are not going to do permanent damage to your brain from a couple nights of drinking and smoking pot. I don't mean to encourage doing things that have some risk of creating dependency, but the actions of cannabis are temporary-- as are most of the effects of alcohol-- provided you aren't drinking to the point of alcohol toxicity (for example, drinking so much that you pass out, repeatedly).
Avatar n tn The severity of the difference would also be dependant on the length of your Herceptin treatment. Oncologists monitor these side effects very closely and I'm sure your Onc. will take this into consideration and discuss the risks of continuing your treatment. The longer the treatment the less the incidence of heart damage but each case is different. Regards ....
Avatar f tn Today I have 1 year of not smoking. Woot Woot! I used all the stuff to quit including zyban, patches, chantix and nicotine gum, in that order. I’m still using the nicotine gum and, I told myself that after 1 year of being smoke free, I would deal with my gum addiction. Booo hooo because I love the gum. The plan of course is to wean myself off of the gum now. Scheesch, if it’s not one thing, it's another thing when it comes to addiction!
Avatar m tn An x-ray cannot detect smoke, especially to a light smoker like you. However, the effects of smoking are diagnosed via x-ray, including emphysema and lung cancer. But there is a different case for heavy smokers, as the x ray result shows changes in the interstitial markings referred to as dirty lungs.
Avatar n tn Hello, It is possible that you are allergic to mint or any of the constituents in which mint is a co-constituent like in tooth pastes along with mint,number of other ingredients are present. You can find out whether you are allergic to mint or any other ingredient by getting allergy testing done. Skin tests are used for this purpose. This test involves pricking, scratching or injecting food extracts into the patient’s skin.
Avatar f tn So I got the cold from one of my students, how bad is it for the baby, and what can I take, I'm constantly coughing with a stuffy, runny nose :( any suggestions.
Avatar n tn There is not much standardized research done on this due to the illegal nature of marijuana. You can find MANY websites on the effects of cannibis and blood sugar, though and I am surprised you are on this one asking questions. Do you really think someone is gonna get on this site and admit to breaking the law????? Please!
Avatar f tn I have known people to quit smoking and then have bronchitis or other irritations as their body gets used to not smoking. In the end all of this should calm down. I would avoid foods that cause inflammation, such as sugary drinks and dairy. Instead try almond milk or other nondairy milk. Also try drnking hot tea with mint as it is an antiinflammatory. Also eat lots of vegetables and greens for the same reason. Chicken soup may be soothing. Hang in there.
Avatar f tn I have a close friend who has been addicted to marijuana for a long time, she also smoked during her pregnancy and no they did not test her for it when she gave birth. I don't know much on the effects of marijuana use during pregnancy but I strongly suggest that you look into that for the benefit of the baby. I know that she breastfed for quite a while, continuing to pass the drug onto her child. Our sons are the same age and have been friends since infancy.
