Hi,

I do not feel that your symptoms are in any way related to quitting smoking. I would suggest that you see a doctor and get yourself examined. What is happening is most probably due to an underlying medical problem. Tobacco withdrawal is unlikely to cause such symptoms that persist for months.

Best wishes.
