No I am a dope, I didn't think of it until I got a pm advising menthol! I mean how thick do you have to be not to think of menthol!

I am using it and kiwi today..it feels nice!
Thanks for thinking of me.

MK if you ever have a cold with a bronchial cough avoid menthol, it is counter indicated for bronchitis because it can instigate bouts of coughing, but as long as it is just a cold it's good lol.

Nope! No Bronchitis this time! The cold is almost gone, I am amazed. I love vaping!!!
The spearmint was good and so was the menthol.

Yep, I had to use my menthol juices the past couple of days when I've had a cold. My cold is better but my taste buds are still off...and I'm sooooooooo ready to be able to taste RY4 and RY3 again...I'm missing them.

I did have half of a regular cig today...to see if I could get a stronger taste with it. Nope (thank goodness). This is the first time I've a cold as a vaper...I'm amazed how quickly it is passing, and I can only attribute that to NOT smoking!

My daughter has a cold and asked what I did to get over it so fast. I told her I quit smoking (she is not or has never been a smoker)..She said gee thanks mom! So I told her to take theraflu. It tastes so bad you get well faster so you don't have to take anymore! She's taking it in her hot tea..yep, it's still horrid!

I think I have a cold and wow, it's simply not affecting me the way it would when I was a smoker. Now, maybe it hasn't hit full strength yet but it's been several days and only a couple big coughs and some throat tickling, slight headache/head cold type thing. I'm not even taking any OTC meds for it.

As a smoker even minor colds would make me miserable! I'm so glad I don't smoke!!!

MaryKay · 09-11-2009, 06:00 AM

I know Shiva! Isn't it great! I got so sick before, this time it was just annoying!

I love vaping!

Wow, I'm finally starting to get over the flu - first serious gastric problems that drove me to the doc, then turned into a nasty respiratory thing with fever. If I was still a smoker, I'd be in the hospital with pneumonia. My juice all tastes awful, but just having a vape instead of a smoke has really made all the difference for me, I think.

At least today my head only feels like a 25lb pumpkin - 3 days ago it felt like a 100lb pumpkin!

Guess I don't need to get the flu vaccine, eh?

Yeah, my cold wasn't as near as severe, nor lasted as long as normal. I attribute that to vaping instead of smoking.

K, hope you feel better soon.

MaryKay · 09-19-2009, 04:20 AM

K, at least you are in the right season for pumpkins! Just don't let anyone do any carving!

Get better soon!
