> Well phil ever since I found ecigs and vaping, I only smoke 1 cig a day. Since last Nov.
>>>now that is good going.
>
> Before I smoked 1/2 pack a day for 12 years. Then I found wellbutrin sr and smoked 1/4 pack a day for 10 years.
> wellbutrin gave me anger.
> Vaping is awsome! Thanks for the help in finding about vaping!
>>>spread the word and you are welcome.

> So how many pack years is that? 6+2.5=8.5.
> Is 40 pack years when you die? How many do you get? i think 40 would put someone at a much higher risk than a non-smoker.
>>>it must vary. i was in a second hand book store and saw a book on lung cancer and browsed through it with one eye open. that's when i learned about pack years then put the book back on the shelf.
>>>I dated a wonderful girl in the mid 80's. i hadn't seen her since till she found me here. she had married for ten years and she said her husband was a singer playing every venue in south texas. he didn't smoke but he sang in smokey bars and that killed him, lung cancer. just like christopher Reeds wife did(can't place her name)

> Can't imagine what it would be like to have lungs of a 40 pack year. After my first 6 pack years I could hardly breath. Until I cut down. Mind you I was over weight at the time. But I would get winded after walking fast for 5 min..
i had a lot of physical jobs for years and some kept me in better shape but cigs don't care much about that.
my voice has gone up an octave, maybe not that much. i'm 61 and talked to a lady on the phone and out of nowhere she asked how old i was..61. she said your voice sounds more like 40. never heard that before quitting.
Zy, i know a guy on a forum that switched 8 people to ecigs. didn't push them on the people but patiently waited for their curiosity.
by vaping, we are saving lives but we really don't know how many people that we helped.
