It was open heart surgery. I had smoked 2+ packs/day fo about 25 year. I put out my last cigarette as I opened the door to the hospital. I went to the hospital for a heart catheterizing. From that procedure they woke me up long enough to tell me that they were taking me to the Operating Room for emergency bypass surgery. They said they would do 5 bypasses. The surgeon put me on Wellbutrin (same as Zyban) to help lesson the cravings and withdrawal symptoms of quiting. So far it has worked well. It's been a month and I have not had a cigarette. I really haven't wanted one. There's been a few times where I kind of wanted to reach for one but realized what I was doing. It's been surprisingly easy for me. But you have to consider my motivation too. Before my catheterizing no doctor suspected I had a heart problem. The check was done at my instance. Smoking was my ONLY risk factor for Cornary Artery Disease (CAD).
