Yes chantix really works for me and many others. The only problem is that one time I was in the hospital and stopped I started smoking again for a few days. Now I take 1 pill a day and no matter how long I have to take it or how expensive it is(1 pill is less that 1 pk.), I will continue. all the best

I quit after smoking for about 38 years and I was considered a hardcore smoker. I smoked through my pregnancies, my youngest will be 19 next month. I had thyroid surgery in 2000 and even with a drain in my neck, I smoked : (  I even stopped taking family vacations because I couldn't imagine how difficult it would be to have to "not smoke."
Fast forward.......I am :
3m 4d 15:32 smoke-free, 2,123 cigs not smoked.....
me, the hardcore smoker, without a smoke for over 3 months, WOW!
You can do it too! Make it your priority and if you really want that surgery, you need to be healthy and smoke free.
Good luck to you!
