Medical Uses
PG has been used as the aqueous-based chemical additive in asthma inhalers and nebulizers since the 1950s, with no serious side effects known. PG, because of its water-retaining properties, is the compound of choice for delivering atomized medication. It is also a common diluent for injectable medications, constituting 40 percent of the intravenous form of Phenytoin, an anti-seizure drug.

For me it lasted about a month (1+PAD smoker)... what I have found recently though is that if I vape 50/50 PG/VG heavily I get that same congestion and phlegmy feeling. So I recently purchased some 80/20 juices and that seems to be the fix - I think the thickness of the VG was restricting vaporization perhaps? Either way, I'm happier with the higher PG juices... I'm going to try 70/30 next.
I was a 2 pack a day smoker, and have been vaping for two years. When I switched, it took about 48 hours for me, but I had only been smoking for 6 years, and I was 26 when I quit. I don't know if age is a factor there, but yeah, for me, it was about 48 hours. Felt great! I could taste my food, smell the air better, etc.
Yeah Becca was a pack and half day smoker for over 30 years... guess i should give it some more time...Marlboro reds 100's
You might try experimenting with different VG/PG ratios; as you can see, different vapers have discovered the ratios that seem to smooth out the transitional bumps along the way. Best of luck finding what clicks for you

!I apeciate all of your responses. I really like the community here. i know where to go for answers.. Thanks guys...
It may not be the obvious ie analog smokers cough after quitting.
The Flu, Bronchitis and other respiratory ailments are consuming this country (US).
If something feels wonky and off just make a 15 min appointment with your family Doctor asap.
No I'm good. Just thought if the vaping was giving me this as well...but I am feeling better every day
I have been vaping for 4 weeks and am Just starting to feel MUCH clearer. I a lot clearer after 2 weeks. I smoked a pack a day for 35 years. Another positive effect is my blood pressure has gone WAY down. I am now OFF my blood pressure medicine.
I've been 1 month off of 1 1/2 PAD menthols. I haven't coughed up a bunch of stuff all at once, just a little every morning. I don't particularly "feel better" per se, but I can taste and smell things that I don't ever remember tasting or smelling.
I was a PAD + for 24 years. It took me abut 2 weeks to cough up the majority of gunk. I felt better within a week though. I've been at it almost 2 months and still now and then will cough up a little something. There's still gunk trapped down there but its not all that bad. Sometimes the coughing is related to a specific juice.
About a month for me until my body got shut of all the crap smoking causes. Dry throat and skin and nose bleeds coughing up crap and coughing up nothing just coughing. Ride the wave mate. Exit is feeling better all around.
It lasted about a month for me, but I do a lot of cardio and even though I smoked for 18 years I never really felt congested, but I did feel better after a month.
