I have been smoking since I was 14 years old, a total of 22 years. Over a year ago, I was in the smoke hole at my work and noticed someone using an e-cigarette. They were using a cherry flavored liquid. It was nice tasting but why did I want to stop smoking? I liked smoking. I couldn’t just quit my pack every other day habit. I found out I was pregnant a few months later. I decided I wanted to stop smoking, not just for 9 months but for the rest of my life. I decided to buy an electronic cigarette. I went to a local vapor store and started to sample the flavors. Of course, I first tried the tobacco’ flavors. I immediately decided against those flavors because they tasted disgusting. So ended up with multiple fruit flavors at 6mg of nicotine. I was seeing my OB-GYN regularly. He asked me how my asthma and allergies were doing and if I needed any refills for these medicines I have been taking all my life. I told him I wasn’t smoking anymore and I hadn’t used my steroidal inhaler, my rescue inhaler, or my allergy medicine since I changed to an electronic cigarette. He asked how long I had been using it. I answered for about 5 months. He had this curious look on his face. He promptly replied with That is great to hear. Smoking is directly related to the reason why you were prescribed all this medication. To make this long story shorter: I no longer spend ~$75.00 a month on medication or the ~$100.00 a month on cigarettes. I never thought I would be able to go a day without my rescue inhaler.
