Controversy and then some LOL

[Devonmoonshire]

So I have done a lot of research about the E-Cigs before I bought my eGo-T and I am very happy with it. But all I hear is FDA this ATF that and they are just as bad or worse than smoking is. Well I was visiting my Doctor this week for my knee and she has been harping on me for years about quitting. So I told her that it had been a week since my last analog cigarette. She was elated to say the least. She asked me how I finally did it and I told her I was using the E Cigarette to quit real cigarettes. I asked her, (A DOCTOR), what her take was on them, her reply: "I have heard nothing but success stories about them and they are working! So I am in full support of anything that works as well as these seem to be working to get people to quit tobacco.". SO..... I got it from my Doc so I am satisfied with that because I trust her implicitly.

i love the sentence: "So I am in full support of anything that works as well as these seem to be working to get people to quit tobacco." <3

Me too I loved hearing that from my Doctor. I will say this much, I feel truly blessed that there is not only an E-Cig shop locally here in San Diego which is Vapure, but there is the one I have purchased all of my kits and supplies from in Panama City Florida where I go for a lot of my training and that is Smokin' Vapor and I love the folks there.

That is great news. Not all doctors have the same attitude unfortunately. I have hardening of the arteries and my doctor says the nicotine is adding to that problem. Regular cig or e-cig or chewing tobacco still gives nicotine.

This is very true, but luckily, unlike cigarettes, you can go down to zero nicotine and still have the physical habit cravings satisfied with e-cigs. At least that is what my doc said, my blood pressure was a little bit higher than normal last tme I saw her after quitting but she said it is probably due to the nicotine and as I decrease the amount I intake it should level back out to the normal healthy level that I had when I was smoking analogs.
