Fell asleep in the chair last night

 Yeah, it happens. 

 Sometimes I fall asleep in an upright position watching television. 

Usually if I fell asleep with my feet on the floor they would be a bit swollen when I woke up the next morning. Not so much today. Think this is anything to do with not smoking?

I can't say that the lack of swelling in your feet has anything to do with quitting.  It may, but I don't really know.

 

However, if your feet often felt cold when you were smoking...quitting goes a long way in combating cold feet.  And in this weather, that is a big plus.

I used to be cold blooded all the time.  My wife has even noticed that I’m not bundled up with the thermostat on 71° (Her happy temp)

 Better bloodflow must be a good thing. 

We hear of ways smoking effects the body all the time....it could possibly be...everyone is different...

I would look at it ,as a definite result...now...what about the mouth dropping snoring ????? Whahaha...

Hello Octain:

 

Check out the resource page http://whyquit.com/joels-videos/does-smoking-cause-my-headaches/

I know its titled about headaches but the issue of improving symptoms for many different conditions after a person quits smoking is covered.

As far as for better blood flow being a good thing--that is an understatement. Nicotine's vasoconstrictive action has consequences that effect many organs of the body and can be downright dangerous and even deadly. The page http://whyquit.com/joels-videos/heart-and-circulatory-diseases/ explains many of these issues.

 

Thanks Joel!!

I don’t notice my snoring. Maybe cause I’m asleep, lol

I did however ask my wife  if she’s noticed me being a quieter sleeper. Says she hasn’t noticed.

The mouth dropping open and snoring is to keep the flies away
