Has anyone had nicorette (overusage) cause daily vomiting

I have been chewing nicorette for about 4 years + still smoking about 4 cigarettes a day.
I think(know) I am more addicted to the gum then anything now.
However, I chew 24/7, I even have a piece in my mouth when i am sleeping at night.

For the last 2 months (give or take a month) I have been throwing up any food i eat on most days.(and still not losing alot of weight(which really *****!). HAS ANYONE HAD THIS HAPPEN OR KNOW OF ANYONE THIS HAD HAPPENED TO?

I guess this is what i am looking for, easy compared to lots of things.
I also am disabled and do take heavy pain medication for Psuedo Tumor Cerebri and Chiari Malformation.
I have had 50 or more surgeries and 100's of spinal taps in the last 11 years, so at this point I am hoping it is the gum and I don't have anything more serious. I don't think i could take that!

Ack

Thanks for the answers.  I think I knew that in my heart, but, I am so tired of going to the Dr.s- IT NEVER IS A GOOD THING FOR ME,
But I will make an appt on Wed and go.

Thanks again, I appreciate all your posts:)

Kim is right even if some people taking have thrown up that DOES NOT MEAN that's why you are and with some prior medical issues it makes it that more important you have it checked out .

PLEASE listen to what Avisg told you.We are not doctors here.Even if someone here did experience vomitting while taking the nicorette,that doesn't necessarily mean thats what is going on with you.You need to see your doctor.Good luck to you.....Kim

i quit smoking 3 yrs ago, with nic gum, and i still chew it, i am ok with that
i chew 2-4 pieces a day, i used to use nic suckers that a friend of mine made, he is a pharmacist
when i smoked and chewed the gum i did throw up alot, you just cannot do that, pic one or the other
i hope you feel better soon, its hard to stop smoking but you can do it
this is what i used to stop smoking
