I'll stick my bit in here, I smoked 30 - 40 roll ups a day. I used to hand roll so they weren't the huge fat ones but I'd get through around 75 grammes of golden virginia a week.
I now use medium around 18 mg and get through anything between1 - 3 mls a day.

75gms per week??? I used to smoke almost 40gms per day at my worst! I used Rizla Concept Tubes so each cig was obviously larger than yours deesigner but, even so, yours must have been as thin as matchsticks - I was a hopeless handroller.

Blimey and I thought I was a heavy smoker I was smoking 25 - 20 normal fags a day before I went onto roll ups. I tried the 'lights' once and just ended up rolling a ciggy paper over the small holes that make them 'light'

I used to cover the Silk cut holes with Riz too!..then I progressed to three times more rollies..

Hardly dare admit it, but on a bad day I used to smoke between 50 & 60 cigs

Jason, as others have said, we all react to nicotine in a different way - same in many ways as drinking lots of coffee & or tea. Plus we still don't know for sure how much nicotine we absorb from vaping - if you have a month or so to spare , I'll find & post the links to the many threads on ECF discussing the issue - the longest thread by Trog entitled something like "are we getting it or not" had several thousand replies last time I checked.

I'm not a medic so can't put my hand on my heart & say you have nothing at all to worry about. Nicotine from smoking is thought to harden arteries - whether the same thing occurs from vaping or chewing nicotine gum/using patches, I don't know.
