MY LUNGS!!!!!!!!!!! question?

[Maleta]

okay think about this and you tell me.. maybe im crazy

anaolg is dry smoke.

vapor is wet smoke..

now considering that do you think you can drown yourself out if you vape to much? just a weird question i know..

and how much vape is to much vape?

i think im at about 2ml a day... if not a little bit more and i vape all day long... so the question is ... is that to much? (i used to smoke 30 cigs a day so theoriticly speaking im not smoking as much?)

and i already went down from 24 mg's to 18 mgs and im about to order the 12 or 14 mg of nicotine fluid.... even though i quit anaolgs about 6 weeks ago.... and any other advice quiting or such?

I think a lot of folks vape as much and more. I haven't yet got a good handle on how much juice I consume ... I use numerous PVs and just haven't really figured it out yet.

But, how do you feel at six weeks in? For myself, by that time I had noticed substantial changes. No more wheezing & coughing. And, greatly pleased that I could INHALE DEEPLY without getting a coughing spell started. I also noticed by that time that my senses of taste and smell were improved.

I smoked 1-2 packs a day for 35+ years. At the time I quit, I was smoking about a carton per week.

You are not likely to drown yourself out if you vape too much. As a matter of fact, the opposite would be more likely. The products that are used to produce the vapor attract moisture and may dry out your mouth, throat and lungs. As for myself, the only dryness I notice is my mouth and lips.

Propylene Glycol is one of these products and it is used in an inhaler for lung transplant patients. My wife had a double transplant in 1996 and this was part of her treatment. This treatment was for the purpose of removing excess fluid from her lungs

Yea, I vape pretty much all day long. I have c.o.p.d. which includes enphysema a condition that causes excess liquid to be produced by the lungs, and my lungs haven't sounded this clear in the 35 years that I smoked. In fact I haven't had a cough ,wheeze or excess yucky stuff coughed up in over a month.

I've been vaping for over a year now and if I've been heavily vaping the day before I can still feel it in my chest. I think that if you do anything to excess it isn't going to be good for you, vaping included. As for drowning on 2ml per day of PG, this is highly unlikely. Your lungs are extremely good at filtering out crap, and they'll see PG as crap.

Well, it's looking like we won't be vaping for too much longer anyway, what with bans being in place already across most of the world and now the UK is about to follow suit. The biggest hint that it'll be banned is from big tobacco, if these looked to be staying legal they would all have e-cigs out now. Heck, they've got brands of Snus for sale because they know it'll always be legal in Sweden. I think with the contacts they have in Government they already know it isn't a path worth pursuing as ecigs will be made illegal.

Although, if they do ban ecigs I will not return to smoking analog. I'll just give up, or vape zero nic.

I can't drown myself with this vapor and I'm trying as hard as I can!
This is a lousy way to kill yourself. It'll probably take more than 30 years and I'm 52 now.

I think you have it backwards. Vapping is a DRY smoke. The jiuce makes the visable vapor by taking moisture fromthe air. Thats why your mouth gets dry when vapping.

actually vapor isn't any kind of smoke at all.
Smoke is something derived from the combustion of materials - no materials are being combusted when you vape as there is no 'fire'; think of it more like sauna steam. I haven't heard of anyone drowning in a sauna..and they do use scented oils on that brazier (which btw is very hot, but not on fire hot, rocks)
Using a PV is also akin to using a nebulizer - its the same basic principle but without the food flavorings; nebulizers do usually employ PG though, which is the carrier medium used in ejuice to which nicotine and food flavorings are added.
