Sure I’m gonna quit.
It’s just that nicotine patches don’t work any more …

I also get shortness of breath after trying to exercise more intensely or climbing a hill.
I’ve tried quitting cigs but can’t. Smoking is the bane of my existence.

Maybe zyns would work? Nicotine pouches. 1 every couple of hours. Start off low strength. Good luck

No thank you. But nice of you to offer.
My grandpa had COPD in his last years before he passed away.
He smoked for most of his life.
I hope you quit soon. I know its very difficult to do. I’ve stopped and restarted a million times. I always feel better when i’m not smoking though.

Smoking bronchitis is one of a few forms of COPD. The other forms are emphysema and asthma @zoa.
I have mild emphysema myself. Just diagnosed with it last year. Quit smoking almost 20 years ago. Smoked on and off for 33 years. Didn’t inhale though. I still got copd. I don’t seem to need any inhaler meds.
