Hello everyone! My name is Mike, I come from Latvia, a country in the Eastern Europe.
I decided to register here to expand my knowledge on vaping as I myself enjoy vaping, just for fun.
A little about myself. I am 18 years old and guess what, I do have a lung condition, it is called bronchiectasis, which means that some parts of my airways dont function properly, which ends up with mucus and stuff like that collecting in my lungs. Have had it for some years because when I was 6 years old, doctors diagnosed me with asthma and guess what, I didn't even have it... So with the help of the docs and the usage of unneeded medicine resulted in bronchiectasis on both lungs and also bronch deformation. Sure, I have some difficulties in my life, but I am living an active life and doing the best I can to basically avoid visits to hospital and all that. But my lungs have'nt been a reason for me to try vaping. The first e-cig I tried was a regular, cigarette replica-type thingy that used those small cartridges with foil that you can get rechargable and disposable, now I stepped up my game and since today I have been using a eGo battery with a CE4 tank, and god is this one a huge upgrade from those little craps. :D I'm also using a 100% pg juice I think and I don't have any problems or reactions while inhaling, excluding the throat hit, that gets bearable fast.

I would like to purchase a some kind of mod or an e-hookah type in the future, any suggestions? I would like to make those cloud like vapes, but don't have much idea which mod or what mod does the trick, I know that it has to do with wattage and ag or pg liquid and stuff like that (basic knowledge) and a hookah would be nice for a night over with friends. Also, do you think it should be considered bad if I vape just for fun? I like to have low-medium nicotine level for extra exp. as I have used it for a year on the small thingy and I'm not addicted to it! It is also funny because sometimes I get to think that the e-cig helps out a bit, because if I have some of that mucus stored in my airways, I can get it out with some puffs or a bigger throat hit, heh. Thank you all for reading! :vapor:

Answering to posts. I may actually made a mistake about deformations, but what I can tell is that I have bronchiectasis on both lungs, but it doesnt affect my personal life that much, just have to put a bit effort to keep myself clean, so I wouldnt call the problem THAT major. And to inhaling anything foreign. I have been inhaling stuff a lot. Heh, sure, medicine not vapor , in this case chloride fresenius with tacholiquin, which helps dissolve the mucus if I feel the need for it.

Welcome to the forum, Mike!

I am sorry to hear about your health issues, and as much as I hate being negative about vaping, I hope you will, at some point, discuss vaping with a health professional.

Please listen to what your body is telling you, I would hate to hear about someone having an adverse reaction to vaping.

That being said, I do hope you enjoy your stay here!

Thank you guys for your concerns! :) I know that vaping may have negative effects on the body, but for the year when I had used the small e-cig I didn't seem to have any bad reaction to it, but I will talk to a health professional when I will have the chance! I am not thinking about making something out of vaping in my life, just something I would like to do once in a while and in the meantime learn a few things about it while I'm at it.
