Hi Carol!
Good luck, you will make it. See if your doc will give you the stepped patches...you start at 21mg X "x" number of weeks, then go to the 14's and then to the 7's. That's what I did way back when and it worked fine for me...I was a 1 1/2-2 pack a day (and more if things weren't going well!) and will celebrate my 20th anniversary off cigarettes next month.
So like I said, good luck!
