Is Diarrhea also a common symptom after quitting smoking. I haven't smoked for the last 3 days and I am a thyroid patient.

Hi!
Maximum symptoms of nicotine withdrawal are felt in the next 3-7 days after the last cigarette. However, yes, symptoms like anxiety and headaches can re-surface time and again for a few months, especially if you are stressed or around smokers or   are sitting idle. Headache with cold can be due to viral flu as well. Please check your body temperature. Low vitamin B12 and thyroid problems are the other causes.
If the symptoms recur, please consult your doctor. You may be given medications to control these symptoms if the symptoms are linked to nicotine withdrawal and may be given some counseling to help divert your attention from cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Take care!
