Went in for a checkup yesterday, was asked if I smoked. Told them I vaped. The nurse then proceeded to educate me about the dangers of popcorn lung, citing that same flawed study that gets thrown around.
When dealing with the medical field, please remember that there are two types of people involved:
1. Those that truly believe vaping is bad.
2. Those that are simply obeying the rules they have to apply in order to keep their jobs.
In the end, let them say their piece, say thanks, and go on with the exam. You can't defeat most medical professionals because they are either in the #1 or #2 category. There are exceptions, though. My wife had a doc recommend vaping to her. He waited until everybody else left and it was just us 3 in the room.
