Has anyone had a chest CT or xray since they started using ecigs? Were there any findings, and, if so, do you think it could be connected to use of the ecigs? Has anyone's doctor told them that ecigs were affecting their lungs negatively? Thanks much.

I have not. But it seems I read about someone who did have an X-Ray recently along with a battery of bloodwork and both came back very positive. Might try a search and see if it yields anything.
Quite the contrary. I had chest x-rays about 7 months after I started (about a year ago). My lungs were clear for the first time in my adult life.
Still feeling great.
Haven't had a chest CT or X-ray recently, but my O2 level went from 92 to 98! And my BP dropped 11 points on both sides...
My doctor had heard about e-cigs, but wasn't informed. He asked if I could send him some info, which I did and offered any assistance with those interested in 'bakky secession. He was VERY impressed with my 45 year 2 PaD habit and the painless switch to vaping.

No xray, but my SpO2 (partial pressure of O2 in the bloodstream measures as a percent) after about 6 months with my PV, went from 94-95 to 98-99% (normal is 97-100%). Also, I feel better! I don't get winded like I used to, and have stopped wheezing and coughing.

Not to mention his floppy eared ostrich in his avatar turned into a tree with a dog sitting in it.
Sorry Iffy...I tried to resist...I really did. OK, I didn't...but the devil made me do it. OK, he didn't but it was just there and I couldn't help it. OK, I could...but I didn't so THERE! 
Look, amusing people, lol!!
I haven't had a chest x-ray either but like others, blood pressure has dropped and O2 has also increased from 94/95 up to 99.
I have been vaping for just over a year now with the occasional cig, like maybe 3 in the last 8 months. I don't wheeze all night, I don't cough my guts up every morning. And, I smoked for over 37 years!!!

I had simular results . On average my SpO2 was about 95% after finally quiting analogs within a month or two it went to 97% . My last reading was 98% .

I wish there was a report that displayed medical data of people who switched to vaping.
ALA has the resources but has not the will; shame.
Maybe someone will step up one day.

I do want to add though, it may not be a good idea to be vaping right before you get your BP done as the last time I pulled that it was elevated. I was fasting and got delayed on the stupid visit so I went out and vaped several times since I couldn't eat. This was for our annual ins health check and they had to take my BP 3 times, lol. Now I just don't do that
