Hey all,

Just realized that my usual morning, hacking, gagging cough is gone!

After a month of vaping and very few analogs this is just GREAT!:D

Congrats!! I had Blue Cheese and Hot Wings for the first time a week ago after eating them for 10 years up to 10x a month. I have smoked for 17 years until this past December. I can say nothing less than you never really know your taste buds are dead/gone until you just happen to eat one of your favorite foods of all time and finally get to "really" taste it and it is even better.

that happened to me too! I didn't even realize it was a smoker's cough, but by some strange coincidence it disappeared as soon as i took up vaping and quit the analogs. yipee!

Yup, it is GREAT.

I think sometimes smokers cough so much we don't really realize how much we do it but my friend who I speak to often recently told me how nice it was to speak to me without having to constantly listen to me cough. :cool:

As for taste: Double Yup.

Last week I was eating this Butterfly Shrimp dish from the local Chinese Restaurant. I've eaten this dish for years and I commented on how this time it tasted so spicy and my mother told me it has ALWAYS been like that. I had just never realized. :rolleyes:

I don't miss the constant throat clearing, and the coughing as I fell asleep. Those are gone. YAY! It's funny, my lungs felt better the first couple of months- I notice that I'm coughing a little bit again. But it's different, not nearly so constant, not is it phlegmy (is that a word?). I'm pretty sure that it takes longer than a few months to heal 30+ years worth of damage. At first, the change was so pronounced, what with losing the tar and carbon monoxide that I thought my lungs were all better. Not all healed yet, but enough better that they're getting sensitive- pollen, car exhaust etc. They're doing what they're supposed to do, and hopefully one day they'll be all pink and shiny again. :)
