I know this string hasnt been used in over a month but was wondering if anyone having used Chantix at anytime had any neuro type symptoms. This is my second go round on Chantix but quit smoking after only 4 weeks the first time. Stayed off the smoking for a solid year then went back. Smoked a year before trying Chantix again. I experienced horrible nausea and vomitting for the entire third week but felt much better after that. (still smoking a bit) I have now been on Chantix for 10 weeks and still smoking a few a day but have started having very odd sensations in my shoulders, arms, feet and legs. My coordination seems a bit off when I reach for something and am not looking at where my hand is going. Some pains in my stomach and in my shoulders as well. Feels kinda like my nerves are being affected in some way. Also feel a bit loopy sometimes.....
Anyone out there having or have had similar issues?

I took Chantix for about 2 months and it made me insane. I nearly ended up divorced, had severely vivid horrible dreams, was extremely aggressive, etc. etc. etc. I quit the stuff before I ended up killing someone. It is a horrible drug and I would not recommend it to anyone. I'm glad it does work for some people, but to me it is not worth the risk of the side effects since everyone reacts differently. I am going to try to quit without anything for the 100th time.
