I was never a smoker.
I am now on 2 mgs a day - using lozenges. You can also cut patches up. I found it challenging for first hour or so....and yet? If I rest, symptoms became relaxation!
If there is a cleansing of receptors - this may be why it packs a wallop at first. My brain fog is going and my energy is returning. I won't add more until I am stable in 2-4 mgs. E

I have never tried a lozenge. My reaction was so rough to patches, and gum didn’t seem to do anything. So I determined maybe not for me, after trying three times.
I may give it another go with lozenge.

My taste and smell came back shortly after being sick with Covid. I have hearing loss and eye, and digestive issues that started six weeks after the initial infection ended. It’s a puzzle I’ve been fighting for two and a half years. Can’t even count the number of doctors and specialists I have seen over that time.
