and the tunnel vision is getting worse. surreal. I can probably see about 70-degrees right in front of me, the periphery is out of focus, but the periphery covers the remaining 100-degrees of vision…
headache is manageable. much better than before, now it just feels like a blunt axe was used to cleave open my skull. not too bad actually. an hour ago it was like a saber stuck into my left eye socket and out through the back of my head. thank goodness for axes!
right, I’m off to bed now where I hope to read a bit more of Monsoon by Wilbur Smith for the 1,839th time!
G’night y’all

I get it. But sometimes I just get the disturbed vision, and escape the headache by secluding myself in relative darkness.
If it happens while you are driving, pull over and wait for it to pass. We can’t drive without our peripheral vision.

if you can make it through 3 weeks, you will be golden. i used to be a smoker for 10 years. I quite twice, the first time for 6 months. the second time for 9 years and counting. Both times cold turkey.
it takes 3 weeks to actually get the majority of stuff out of your system. you will find that your taste buds will be discovered again and you will taste things like salt and the like. my advice is to get into a workout routine as well .. give youself until the end of the year to take stock of where you are. good luck!

thanks JJ, I appreciate your support. as to the taste, I’m experiencing that already!
