    It's private insurance. I'm hesitant to use the ER, because if insurance declines to pay for it I will have to and hospitals are not cheap as healthcare goes. I have been seeing a pain management center prior to this who have been very helpful through this ordeal. They are supposed to be adding...

    It's good to see so many familiar faces... and on a not entirely unrelated note, after reading through the last several pages, I can I relate with a lot of the issues I am reading about. Much like FQ, quitting for me doesn't come from a place of a desire either because I love to smoke too...

    Thanks everyone for the well-wishing. Let me clarify. None of the ER Docs seemed concerned by the Chest X-ray. I'm not thinking the C word or anything, but it's still a wake up call. The back and heart thing... I need to see some specialists. Hoping for the best. :) U.S. banks are really on...

    Hey Everyone, It has been crazy here lately. Just over a week ago I fractured a vertebra in my back due to an abnormal heart condition. Of course if anyone asks, I got into an elevator with Ray Rice... or I was base jumping off my couch, or...(I have a million excuses to explain this stupid...

    Hey Guys, I'm lurking if not posting. Not really vaping right now... but that will change soon enough. Going to pick up some coconut water next time I'm at the store and see if that helps with the dehydration. Tim, I'm glad the WTA is working for you. That stuff helped with my cravings a...

    My current setup is a zmax v3 using either an Igo-L or a Protank I/II with an Air Control Valve. The liquids are a 50/50 mix at 18 mg. I have no issues with PG, but some high VG liguids do bother me (probably the alcohol base.) These are basically the same 2 liquids I've been vaping for years...

    Hey everyone, long time no drop in. My A/C died a couple weeks ago on a Friday so that really sucked. Couldn't replace it until Monday, so that made for an uncomfortable weekend. Now I'm having A/C issues at the rental house... I really don't need another $4500 bill right now. :/ Tim, I...

    I'm not stressing over smoking or vaping. It's counterproductive. I will be back down to a couple smokes a day in no time and eventually down to none. It will happen when it does and I'm fine with that. Evil Dead the musical was awesome! Fun, hilarious, and just a good time all around. It turns...

    Just dropping in to say hi... and welcome to all the new people. My best advice is to hang in there and remember it's usually the second mouse that gets the cheese... Grats Jazz and Theya (one year woohoo.) Top, I'm glad your son is better and you are home now. Sorry about the mini-flood, try...

    Aik: Thanks for the info, I will check out the nic suppliers you mentioned. This is just my personal speculation, but I think BP is pushing to kill the ecig industry. BT is focusing on the asian markets because that is where the money is now. Remember the 3 year old kid smoking in indonesia all...

    First I want to congratulate all those reaching milestones or for personal victories. (a la Shari or FQ) I lurk, but rarely get caught up enough to post, or reply to posts that aren't already a week (or more) old. I will try to address what little my feeble mind can remember... Shari: I can...

    Losing loved ones is never easy. It's hard to know how to react or how someone will react to your reaction (clear as mud yes) on the topic of death so don't sweat it. It's a part of life, and in this case (like many others) it's one of the best things that can happen to someone suffering with...

    I've been lurking when I can trying to keep up, but it's been difficult lately. Grats JJ on the 1 year anniversary. My uncle passed away a couple weeks ago, the funeral was last weekend. His wife will be moving closer to her kids, which is for the best. Things are getting a bit more...

    Hey everyone, welcome to all the new comers, and grats to all of you with recent victories of one sort or another. I decided it was time to make a concerted effort to vape more and smoke less. All the stress of moving, having another smoker in the house and a terminal relative spending his...

    The best vape I've ever had was on my zmax while using a micro-coil on an Igo-L. Great contest, thanks!

    Thanks again for the info Aikanae. I need to start making phone calls, I just hate using phones. If I don't get anywhere with the State, I will try calling the HMO I signed up with and let *them* enroll me, I get the impression from their website that they would be more than happy to do so. At...

    Thanks for the info aikanae. I've searched and searched and searched online and can't find much of anything about medicaid in this state. I've never had medicaid before, and this state just did the expansion and set up their own healthcare exchange which forces everyone to sign up for healthcare...
