I don't know why, but your doctor is correct. By smoking, you do mean combustible cigarettes, don't you?

Cig's are just bad news, I smoked 3-4 packs of Marlboro Reds a day and chewed 2-3 bags of Red Man a week. Doing that for so many years I HAD to stop or It was going to kill me. Smoking and Chewing used to be my best friend's. They became enamies after 35 years.

My guess, its the Nicotine that is making you feel better. Nicotine is not new us, but we just scratched the surface on the benefits we get from Nicotine.

Get your self an e-cig kit and with high nicotine juice. Start with 18mg nic juice.

Since my body was so used to SO much nic intake I had to vape 36-38nic for about 4-5 months to get over the hump. Then when the detox/withdraw's were gone I went down to 24 nic.
