Update and questions

Also, if you've been quit for a month or two you may have some cilia growing back and expectorating junk. That's a good thing. They used to say smoking burned killed your cilia off. I don't feel like researching to see if that is actually true, but it makes sense.

I believe it wasn't that smoking killed the cilia, but rather that it paralyzed them. Either way, same result!

I vote with the others on the menthol. I started vaping spearmint, and it helps a lot.
If you get the mint flavoring, just go easy. I used some when I first started vaping, and nearly caused hubby to have an asthma attack when he hit it once.
Feel better soon!

I'm posting, not for sympathy but to let ya'll know that I've read this far. Thanks so much for the advice again - finding menthol was a fail this eve but I've not given up. I'm sure the place I cheat at (occasionally) can make me a lil bottle of I ask pretty please.

Oh yeah, and Iz sick, sneefuls -goes back to bed, whiny voice and all- Definitely not allergies.

I am just getting over a cold, but I have to say if vaping menthols, mints, peppermint or menthol isn't good for you..just grab some vicks cough drops (I like the original flavor and cherry flavor). I drank enough water to float out to sea! I am fine in the day but laying down at night is a bear,,coughing and stuffy. I have been hitting the nyqil cough syrup to sleep.
The cold only lasted 4 days...yea me! The rest is slower to go, but it's NOT bronchitis like I used to get after a cold!
Feel better and pamper yourself.
