Okay I just couldn't read all of the "vaping is evil" thread...just too early for all that rubbish.
Anyway, my hubby has heart disease and asked his Doc if he had ever heard of the e-cigs. He said he hadn't and we let it be. He had to go in a few weeks later for some test results and the Doc had a total change in his knowledge. His Doc had a friend who he had apparantly talked to about the e-cig. His friend ended up getting one (no idea where from) and started using his new found toy to try to quit smoking. Doc said that three weeks later his friend had completely quit analogs after failing to quit countless times. His friend was also getting ready to put down his new e-cig and try to fly solo.
At this point Doc actually recommended my hubby get an e-cig and try it! He said he couldn't see any reason they wouldn't be safe and that it had to be better than smoking analogs. So after pestering hubby forever about getting off analogs because of his heart disease he gave his an alternative hubby could live with .. the e-cig, and a doctor recommendation to go with it.
We have both been using the M401 for 4 days now and loving it! I've had a few more problems adjusting than hubby has (I'm actually wondering if it's a weight thing actually). Both of us had some tightness in the throat but it's starting to go away now. I've felt a bit of a tightness in my chest and am starting to drink water (ugh I hate water). We made the mistake of ordering prefilled carts in the 24mg strength OUCH! Took my first puff, got the headrush from hell, immediately felt sick to my stomach, and didn't want to touch anything with nic for a whole 2hrs! Since then I've cut the 24m liquid we bought down to 12mg and emptied and refilled some carts. The 12mg seems to be going MUCH better.
I'd recommend e-cigs to anyone. Quitting analogs is scary stuff. Just the thought of it to an analog smoker causes your chest to tighten up, your brow to sweat, and that inner voice telling you to RUN! The e-cig made the transition easier than I could have hoped for. I'll admit I am vaping alot more than I smoked for the time being, but the switch hasn't caused me too much stress. I'm now vaping full time and off analogs completely and I have yet to bite anyones head off from withdrawal of any kind! I couldn't have asked for anything more, and all because we actually ASKED a Doc about a products we knew little about, turns out he knew less, but people talk and Doc's are people too! It's funny how a bit of curiosity can go a long way.
So for anyone out there bashing vaping and stating over and over again about safety. No it isn't tested, but it doesn't mean the medical community isn't starting to catch on and standing behind this new product all the same.
