What do you do when your sick?

[NancyR]

After almost a week of no analogs I got sick, not just the mild cold or allergies, but full fledged sinus infection and strep throat.

Now this put me in kinda of a bind, I use cartomizers currently and only have one drip tip (something that will be changing soon). I do believe in keeping my stuff clean, but well when you feel like I did the last thing you want to do is be standing at the sink washing all this stuff out every little bit, so I smoked, as I was having a nic fit and well at least those I throw away.

now that I am feeling a lot better I have made sure every things clean and gone back to using my pv, but any suggestions on other ways of handling things when sick would be appreciated.

I suppose having extra carts, tips, and the like would help. Then, when you get sick, you can use carts and then toss them/it. Drip tips should be washable...maybe anti-biotic soap?

If I catch something, I use an atty and drip tip....I'm a carto cat by nature. When I start getting better, I clean everything in rubbing alcohol. Rinse very well to remove the residue from the atty and drip tip. While this set is drying, I keep another one handy. Just repeat each day until you're completely over it. Then clean up everything again and put it away until, but hopefully not, get sick again.

Thanks guys, and yes I am working on getting extras, part of the hang up this go around was I had just changed over to the carts form that inferno/ego t tank system, so really just building everything.

Guess I'm ol' fashioned in that I live by...

Normally within a year I'd have at least three 'colds', with two settling in my tar coated lungs. Since I've been vaping, I've only had a two day sniffle/runny nose attack! So, I don't do anything special to my vaping devices, other than use and abuse 'em!

Normally I don't get the sinus infections and stuff, but my sister got sick the week before, and bless her shes one of those that seems to get everything, and I got it from her. Had it just been a cold or the likes I wouldn't have thought twice about it.

Vodka is actually a better germ killer.
Antibiotic soap will work IF you scrub!
Once you have immunity whatever the bug, your actually pretty safe.

Hot water and soap are THE best.

I agree with Iffy. I also use strong spirits to clean my stuff.
