Hospital vaping anyone?

[HazeyPurpleHippy]

Hey, just thought I would share this real quick. The other day I spent the whole day, stuck in my hospital bed. Had my provari with me, so I decided I would give it a go, until someone told me to stop. Well, nobody told me to stop! All the Doctors and nurses, around/in and out of my room, and nobody said a thing to me(positive or negative). So I just kept on enjoying my hospital vape, and trying to make the best of an aweful situation! Nothing like blowing clouds in a medical facility! Idk, I vape everywhere, and never even give it a second thought, but in the hopital bed, I felt like I was commiting a felony or something!(guilty conscience I guess) Anyone else ever vape in the hospital, or any place like it???

I love that story. I would probably exhale under the sheets if I was in that situation.

Here in China, even doctors smoke in the hospitals.

Seriously? How on earth can they think its OK to smoke in hospitals? That has to be so bad for everyone. Not to mention all the people in there with lung problems and week immune systems! I did not know that. You officialy blew my mind!!!

When I was a kid the nurse would hand out complimentary cigarettes to people in the waiting room. Dr. Johnson was never seen without his pipe. Puffing on continuously. He retired at age 80 and died the next year in a car accident.

I was at the ER, accompanying my Gramma. First, the place was a "Tobacco Free Zone". Not even a "No Smoking Zone". First try, security was on me. I told them I wasn't smoking. They said as long as it looks like a cigarette, I couldn't do it. I told them it was stainless steel and had a blue LED, showed them, no go.

Tried again later. Got a few puffs in, different security. Same explanation, they told me that normally they could ask a supervisor but it was too late (about 3 AM).

So, I just vaped in the bathroom, perfect. It's so ironic to me.

If I was the one in the hospital, I would have just done it. Because I wasn't a patient, I didn't want to get kicked out as I would have been stuck for a LONG time.

I'm a paramedic and I vape in the hospital's EMS charting rooms all the time. I've been asked what it was, but never been told I can't do it.

I am a doctor and I vape in doctors mess. The other doctors make fun of me saying that the RIVA 510 looks like a mascara!!

When to see a friend in the hospital yesterday and vaped the whole time, even when a cop was beside me in the elevator.

Was hospitalized a week ago, and seriously had no desire to vape till I was on the ride home. Probably a good thing, around here they really have no tolerance for anything nicotine related. Too many retirees being "doogooders".

Just the other day I had to go to the emergency room with my ol lady because she has a severe tooth infection. I vaped as I pleased without any problems.

Earlier this year I was hospitalized 3 times for 4 days each time and I vaped. I mostly kept it hidden and didn't make a big deal out of it but did tell a couple of the nurses, the cool ones. Once a nurse came in and asked why it always smelled like chocolate cake in my room and I just laughed and said that sounds good.

Once I was vaping in a store in the dressing room and a kid yelled out that I was smoking. Like a little kid myself I said, NO I'M NOT!!! It was so funny because the kid didn't know what to say. There wasn't any smell of cigarettes so no one thought anything of it but the kid kept staring at me. LOL

Husband was in ICU for 5 days recently, he could not have made it without my eGo - despite wearing the perscribed Nic patch the entire time (he smokes 2 packs a day). Multiple nurses were all cool with it, only one even questioned him.

About a month ago I had my son in the ER and vaped in the waiting room and his room with no problem.
