Anyones allergies or asthma gotten better with vaping?

[debomizer]

I am curious if switching to vaping has helped anyones allergies or asthma symptoms?

Absolutely. Used to have my head filled with cement about every third night (or so it seemed). But hasn't happened at all since I quit smoking and started vaping. Can't say for sure about the cause/effect, but definitely have noticed a drop in allergy symptoms.

Once my lungs cleaned up my allergies have seemed much better even with still taking Allegra as a normal regiment. Asthma / wheezing has been much less and haven't been getting sick as much either.

I was heading towards surgery, and the only thing that was going to keep me from getting it was my breathing. At 2 packs a day, my O2 levels were at 93 (constantly), walking to the bathroom could strain my breathing. And, gods forbid, that the elevators/escalators are out at the BART station...ewps.

I needed to make the switch, because I needed that surgery. I figured it was a 'cheat' to get around the no smoking bit, and figured once I was done with surgery, it would be back to analogs I go. In the month leading up to the surgery, my breathing had drastically improved, broken escalators don't bother me, and I'm going for extended walks without fearing that I'm going to start to get all wheezy.

I've been asthmatic my entire life, and I'll be honest, I haven't felt this good lung capacity wise in about 20 years.

I always had a stuffy nose and got sinus infections at least twice a year. My nose has cleared and I haven't had a sinus infection in what is almost a year of being analog free.

My asthma has just about disappeared on me. There are times when I have a little reaction when I am in a house with dogs or cats that I haven't been around but I think that is just the allergies getting to me and causes a slight asthmatic episode, but I have used my inhaler far less than I was before. I would have to use it atleast once a week when I was smoking and now its maybe once every few months. I have only had to use it 4 times in the past 8 months I have been vaping.
