I just got back from my Cardiologist. God bless him, he has been very patient with my smoking addiction and has tried every trick in the book to get me to quit. Nothing has worked for any substantial period of time to get me to quit.
He did the usual exam. BP=80 over 120, blood work = right in line, chest exam = lungs clear with no gurgling. He asked me what was going on so I pulled out my VP2 and took a long vape and proceeded to tell him all about the world of Electronic Cigarettes. I told him that I have not had a regular cigarette in three months. He said that he had heard of e-cigarettes but had never seen one. I am sure he had a large degree of skepticism but was genuinely pleased that I quit smoking. I told him that I cut the nicotine level about 2mg every couple of weeks and hoped to be nicotine free in a few months. He told me that if what I had told him was true, vaping was 1000% better for me than cigarettes.
I came prepared and gave him several pages about PG and VG e-liquid and general information on e-cigarettes. I ask if he would do some research and let me know what he found. He said he would because he was now very interested in the subject. He even asked me if I would give a demonstration to his staff! He followed me to the front of the office and as I vaped HE explained what I was doing. Needless to say I was stunned and left his office feeling great.
I do hope that his research will bring a positive conclusion because I dont know what I will do if he tells me that e-cigarettes are bad and that I should stop. Good or bad I will post what he has to say.
