After years of berating by my nurse relatives, I quit without any help. It was horrible. The worst thing for me at the time (it wouldn't bother me now) was that I decided the only way I could be successful was not to drink beer for a few months. It worked, and it's been twenty incredibly boring years, as I really enjoyed it. The best thing about it is, I don't have to lie to all those self-righteous medical types. They always expect me to be a smoker for some reason. I think it had a good effect on the CH but it did not stop them. They lingered off and on for more than ten years. PFDAN- - -Charlie
