I have brutal bronchitis. Good news? First time this year I have been sick!

[BreSha6869]

Hey all,

I feel like I am on my deathbed with an unbelieveably bad case of bronchitis. When I smoked, I would feel like this every couple of months.

I just realized that yes, I am sick, but this is the first time I have felt even remotely crappy in almost a year. Since I started vaping, I have been healthy as a horse. Some believe it is the antiseptic properties of PG, but I lean more towards no longer polluting my body with hundreds of toxic chemicals.

Pretty cool not to call in sick every 6-8 weeks like the old days!

Sorry to hear it but glad it's a rare event now! If vaping is tough, you can always just puff without inhaling for a nic fix. Time for that MTL setup lol!

Hope you feel better soon. Like you, it seemed like I was sick frequently while I still smoked. In the 2+ years since I quit smoking I think I've had one cold, two at most.

I'm not "liking" that you're sick, but I'm agreeing with your sentiment that illnesses aren't as frequent (or hopefully as severe) as when smoking.

This was always a brutal time of year for me. I would land a NASTY case of bronchitis right around now. A few times requiring breathing treatments to help clear my lungs. I've not needed to be seen by a doctor for this for almost three years now.....

Hope you get to feeling better SOON, Darlin'

Cheers!

Thanks!

I think getting sick this time of year is almost unavoidable. I coach 3-4 year olds in hockey (cold rink and germ filled dressing room) and my daughter is in kindergarten/daycare which is Basically a petri ish of germs.

Sucks to be sick, but I can take once a year or so vs. 6x+!

I vaped yeaterday and it hurt my throat. Just like when I smoked, I will likely lay off the vape for a day. The odd puff maybe, but I am too sick to enjoy it or really need it.

That was one thing when I smoked - didn't matter how much my chest hurt or rattled with congestion - I had to have that **** smoke. I do NOT miss that in the least

Get some rest

Almost every time I quit smoking, it was when I was sick. Smoking with a sore throat wasn't something I enjoyed.

Hope you feel better soon! Get well!

 

[house mouse]

Sorry you're sick and hope you feel better soon! And I'm like you. I think I've only had 3-4 bouts of cold type illnesses in the last 6 years of vaping vs. the 3-4 per year I used to get while smoking.

Sorry you're not feeling well, hope you'll feel better soon...

Hope your feeling better soon. Yea I think that the antibiotic properties of ejuice helps us from getting sick, but when it does happen it is going to be a bad one...

 

[BreSha6869]

You folks are nice. Thanks!

I have my meds, I have my Popsicles and my wife is determined to get me up to speed with the Walking Dead. Couch day for me!

 

[dobroeutro]

Popsicles! I may have to go to the store... lol.

Hey all,
I feel like I am on my deathbed with an unbelievably bad case of bronchitis. When I smoked, I would feel like this every couple of months.

I just realized that yes, I am sick, but this is the first time I have felt even remotely crappy in almost a year. Since I started vaping, I have been healthy as a horse.

I had this same problem. Sick as a dog 3-4 times a year and it was so bad.
Then it tapered off since vaping and cant remember the last time I had it.

Dang, seems like you're doing all right!

Feel better soon.

@BreSha6869 I gave you a like for thinking the other 6,999 chemicals in smokes is what made you get sick. I agree!
