If you can kick cigarettes without bad side effects and keep smoking a pipe on Chantix, maybe
it's okay, or good even. If it were me, I think I would try to do one thing at a time, like kick
the cigarettes, and re-introduce the pipe later. But maybe the pipe is helping you balance so
you don't get some of the bad effects. Don't take this wrong, but in a sense, we all have to be
our own physicians, that is, use all the expert advice from MDs, nurses, pharmacists, and others,
that we can gather, and then make the best decisions for ourselves we can. If you can kick the
cigs, get off the Chantix as soon as possible, and smoke a pipe moderately, and not have any
side effects, I say that's success. The side effects others describe sound scary.
