Thank you for the welcomes and the good advice today. I really appreciated it, particularly with the what to expect etc. Isn't it silly... I've been smoking these awful (definitely harmful) cigarettes for so long, but I'm concerned about taking up something that is bound to do me a lot of good compared to them! I suppose it's unease about the unknown!
Looking forward to day two of my e-cig now I seem to have the hang of it a bit better. I have actually smoked about 1/3 of what I normally smoke and vaped the rest. My breathing is clearer already! So pleased!!!! Thank you all - Jeannie x

Thanks Chrissie, that's really good to know.
Another question then.... On Tuesday we're flying from Edinburgh airport to Paris. Are e-cigs ok to go through airport security in our pockets or are we better putting them in hold luggage? - Jeannie x

Thank you so much for the warm welcome everyone!!!
I was just discussing flavours with hubby. He isn't interested, but I was just thinking that a menthol one would be very pleasant. (I have a slight pan-drop addiction- mint imperials to the non scots) Thank you for the link. I'll go and have a wee look.
Update on the finally successful vaping is that I've had only two ordinary cigs today, and have been quite satisfied with a wee pull or so on the e-cig. I can genuinely see myself replacing the ordinary cigs for the e-cig quite quickly.
Can I ask a question about what to expect? I stopped smoking several years ago quite successfully (until I started again two years ago fool that I am!) and had to go through about 4 days of horrible withdrawal/anxiety/irritability/queasiness, this type of thing. Is there anything like that at all with the e-cig or should it be a fairly smooth ride because I'm still having nicotine albeit in a cleaner, less harmful way.

Hi johanino and Beautycat! Glad you found me and thank you for your help on the other forum  The videos were really helpful, and right now I am jumping up and down with JOY!!! it was partly my technique that caused the raucous coughing, and having looked at the videos, now have a better technique. I also ordered some different juice from a different company as I was still coughing with the original juice. It turned up this morning, and lo and behold, I AM VAPING !!!!! Only had one cig today (normally I'd have had about 3 or 4 by now!) Thank you for the welcome everyone. I'm really looking forward to this particular journey. - Jeannie x |

Hi there, I was directed to this lovely friendly, and informative forum via another non-e-cig forum, and I'm so pleased. I've found a lot of good advice just by reading! My husband, who has never been very enthusiastic about stopping smoking, bumped into someone using an e-cig, and being a gadget fan, wanted to know all about it. Then he found that the shopkeeper next door uses one, and he ordered an ego-t e-cig. He's been using it fairly regularly for the past week quite successfully. I've tried, but the process of inhaling the vapour is making me cough wretchedly. I've ordered a couple of different liquids, and am trying to refine my technique so that this doesn't happen, as I really really want this to work! Anyway, thank you for the forum, it's really helped so far - Jeannie x |
