I have bronchitis and I haven't hit my mod in a day and its just starring at me mocking me. I haven't used it because I'm sick and I'm worried that it will prolong the infection. Any body have any suggestion.

I'm not a doctor, and I am NOT offering this as advice. I have only been sick once since I quit smoking, and I pretty much continued to vape while I was sick. My recovery time was a lot faster than when I smoked overall.

I will say that there was about a day that I didn't vape a lot - maybe a few puffs here and there during the day - but the same thing happened to me while I was still a smoker, there were times I was sick and just didn't feel like having a cigarette because I felt so awful.

I have never had bronchitis so I don't know about that specifically. IMO if you can avoid vaping or smoking for a few days, do that. It's certainly not going to hurt you :)

OTOH, if you need to do one or the other I would vape. I have vaped through colds/flus and it has never been a problem while smoking made them worse.

PG is a rather potent germicide, so i doubt it would prolong the infection.

Have small vapes or none as you think best, and make sure you have a constant supply of chicken soup.

When you are back to your old self, take the batteries out of your mod and put them on another shelf in its plain view, just to taunt it back!

Well I'm better now and to help with the vaping I simply took the wicking out of a mark ten cartridge cleaned it out and added some new cotton and my menthol flavor and vaped on that. Works about as good as you would think it would. Thanks everybody hope y'all never happens to y'all or any vaper anywhere

If I did vape with bronchitis I would use a 70pg/30vg, and higher Nic so as to vape as little as possible. No way would I vape lung clogging high vg. My opinion only, as that's how vg affects me.
