At suggestion of Cleolove I am starting a new thread. Although lurking for a while I am basically treading on untested waters. A virgin so to speak. "50" means the pack years that docs attribute to me. Probably more but certainly not less. Let's see. 50 times 365 times 20 is 365,000 devils. Didn't enjoy all of them but more enjoyed than not. No serious (as best as can be determined) respiratory problems yet but vascular problems just recently evident. Endovascular surgery shortly. Although I realize that nic not the best thing for me it beats the devils hands down. Docs ask - smoker? - and I reply no. Usually end of story. But 99 days ago I would have said yes.. And for the last 40 years plus. So - tomorrow is day 100! I'm thrilled as I didn't think it would ever happen. Have read of some of Hitler's students leanings about "prove of safety". I'm pragmatic - beats the devils hands down. Perfectly safe - probably not. But safer than the devils - what 100 - 1, perhaps 1,000 to 1. I understand Hitler didn't smoke or drink. Perhaps an argument for smoking and drinking? But - no reason any more to smoke. 99 days and counting. The devils (and Phillip Morris) are history as far as I'm concerned. If I should die before my ripe time, never let it be said that vaping did me in.

Welcome aboard JW50 it's a fun ride over here at the ECF you should enjoy the place.
Welcome to ECF. I started having issues smoking myself. It required me to start using an inhaler. After switching to e-cigs those problems disappeared. So yes, in my personal experience, e-cigs are better for my health. That seems to be the general consensus among those who switch.
There you go, i have really enjoyed my time on ECF learned a lot laughed a lot etc so welcome and enjoy
Just smoking 3 - 4 "devils" a day for 2 years. I started noticing health problems. going on my 3rd day with my E-cig now. and I'm not coughing anymore. Good stuff! Hopefully in 97 more days. Ill be in your boat!
Thanks for welcomes. One of argues used by the Hitler type mentioned is that the flavors available with e-cigs will corrupt the non-smoking youth toward the evils of "smoking". I personally don't buy the argument. Too "uncool". But do wonder if there are any e-cig users that never tried and used the devils first.
