Yes I still Smoke Cigarettes and I am addicted to the smoking habit - support and chat thread.

Just an update: First, I'm sorry about getting into that tirad last night and really tried to bite my tonque, but for me, my healthcare is directly linked to insurance and not the reverse.

Second, WHOOPPEE! I am finally sick enough for treatment. Thrills and chills. Ugh. They were about ready to order standard asthma meds and blow me off again, but did a couple of minor tests and the doctor came back in (very cute one at that, Dr. Sam) and said results were .... "frankly, terrible". So I'm in for a ton more - which I couldn't short cut directly to allergies, but it's a start and I'm not the doc, so I'm open to being wrong.

Next, my .....'d up insurance has changed my "primary" doc to someone I have no idea who and prob. aren't even accepting the insurance (again). I'm not getting bills, so I assumed this place was covered. Uh, oh. Been here and done this before. I'm afraid they are holding everything and going to do a gigantic billing after it's too late to appeal or acheive clean claim status like before. I hate them. It took me 6 months to find this place. Their network is full of ghost doctors. It's the wild west and I need to figure out my strategy. I'm going to end here.

No grass, one of them is Jazz's favorite, although she mixes it with something else. I taste nothing but acetone. The rest taste pretty much like most of the other tobaccos I've had, but there's also something in them that tastes chemically to me. The only one I halfway like is Turkish Blend (or something like that). Whenever I try one I end up pouring it down the sink and getting out my Indigo.

It was a total waste of $25 for me, but I do know many people like them.

If they don't taste like grass I'd like to try them.

Tribecca is pretty good, a nutty and something taste. I've been slowly vaping mine away since the B&M I got it from only had 12mg in stock.

Tribeca is the one that I can actually vape...but it tastes almost identical to Aroma's Sahara WTA and that for me is much better. So for me, there's no real benefit to using Halo's.

Thank you dear! I have never tried them. You can be our guinea pig though!

I need sleep, have a good night everyone.

Feel better.

I smoked only on outings but after vapeing I didn't get the same satisfaction when I'm drinking I found a putting my regular 12 mg to 18 mg of nic when drinking helped me stop that habit. Reply if you have any neat tricks like that may help some others quit completely !

Well, I guess congratulations and I'm sorry, simultaneously...

And I apologize as well--I totally recognize that your viewpoint is totally and completely related to your personal situation. I certainly hope for the best for you and that you get the care that you need...who the H*!! is your insurance company??

I used to be a health/life agent, and if I can help in some way I'd like to.

(((hugs)))

PM me your address and they're yours! I'll even include the free 10ml bottle of voodoo I got from them. Didn't really care for that one either.

Halo HAS to steep at least a month - unless you like vaping perfume
I suspect it's the flavor molecules they use.

They need to steep.......longer than a week. We steep them faster by putting new ones (broken seals) on top of the coffee maker- the low heat speeds up the steep and don't forget you can cut - that's what I do. Longhorn in half - and even better when mixed with Boba's Bounty.

Turkish cut too - I find their flavor profiles too strong for me but cut, even with naked nic, they are better.

I've been eyeing them too. There's a number of reviews on ECF that I haven't gotten to yet.

Hmmm...I'll have to see when I got them. It's been a while, although I don't know if it's been a month yet....hold that thought Erised...

Hi guys. I want to talk but am having trouble putting words together.

Read to catch up. Cartos and tanks. Went and read a thread about it. Either they are loved or hated. Looks figgety and kinda complicated to me. I have one and it intimidates me, have not tried to figure it out yet.

Opened Lox's package. And out comes....WHAT??? A pack of cigarettes?????? No. Of course not. It looks like a pack of cigarettes, but when I look closer it is an "eHealth cigarette." I am afraid to open it, but I will. It is packaged just like a pack of cigarettes, cellophane and all. Ok, it is opened. Looks like a bunch of little plastic cigarettes in there, just like you would find real cigarettes in a real pack. All in a cigarette pack. This will need more careful exploration. Not now. You all will have to wait until my mind is functioning better. I think THANK YOU LOX - but I am not sure yet. Just found some directions. Looks like you plug the pack into the wall. More reading. Lox, what is this thing you have sent me?

Lox knows I am not technically inclined and he sends me something that I have to put together and the cigarette pack plugs into the wall. And I have to read directions. And I am also intellectually and emotionally challenged today, too. OMG, I have to plug something into the wall. I do not know if I am up to it today. I will do this tomorrow. There's always tomorrow and maybe my brain will work right then.

And I will laugh at and be embarassed by this post tomorrow.

And LOTS of bottles of juice! That I know I can say THANK YOU LOX right now for. Even before I try one. I know I am in for a treat.

It's a 401 kit (like the Frii) should be 1 battery 1 atomizer and 3 cartridges. Screw the battery into the one hole in the pack and plug it into an outlet to charge. If you like it you'll probably want to switch from cartridges to cartos.

I think I speak for all of us when I say we hope you get well very soon

Yeah on the good news, and Grrrrrrrrrr on the bad! Can you request some kind of billing invoice monthly from the insurance company?
BTW, my understanding is that though medical claims will show up on one's credit report-- they basically can not be used against you. Make sure you document EVERYTHING, and dispute EVERYTHING. Sometimes (s)he with the most paperwork wins.

I think I just got pimped out as a guinea pig!!!

Uh oh, Lox. Somebody in the Juice bottle leaked all over. I can make out what the larger bottles are, Gold and Swedish, but the little ones, one or more of them leaked pretty bad and I am trying to take them out one at a time and inspect and figure which little bugger is the bad guy. Got two of the little ones out, but no writing on them so no idea what they are. We will see on the rest.

 

[Erised]

Hmmm...I'll have to see when I got them. It's been a while, although I don't know if it's been a month yet....hold that thought Erised...

Yes, if you haven't had them long enough to steep then definitely let them steep before you pitch them in the PIF pile! Some may be ready in a month, some may take longer -- depending on how you do the steeping (cap on/cap off, heat/no heat, etc). You may find one you really love once it's flavor comes through proper.

 

[FL Lori]

I'm headed out. Good night. Found an image that I think belongs here

 

[ShariR]

Lox - For the little bottles: I have a 4, 5, and 7.
#5 is only a little over 1/2 full so I think a leaker. #4 is a little more than 3/4 full, another leaker. #7 looks fine. The other 4 do not have numbers on them. The second to darkest one looks like it may have leaked also because it is not near full. Any way to figure out what these washed off labels were. The two darkest are unlabeled and the lightest one is unlabeled. The other unlabeled one is closest in color with #7. There. Are you confused yet?

The leaking was contained in the ziplock back, it did not escape to the rest of the package or the saran wrap. I am telling you all this for future reference since I know you send out a lot of juice.
