I’m 49 years old and was a lifetime smoker. I smoked approximately 2+ packs a day for 35 years. Because of smoking I now have congestive heart failure and COPD with cough syncope (I faint and have seizures if I have coughing fits). In December 2013 I ordered an Ego starter kit and a few juices from an online retailer. The night I received them I gave up cigarettes. My breathing and lung capacity has improved. I can walk when I shop now. I’ve not had a syncope episode since then. Vaping won’t cure my issues but it’s improved my quality of life 100%. My wife hasn’t quit smoking but she’s down to a cigarette every few days and makes most of our juices. If I were to go back to smoking I’m sure I’d be dead within a couple of years.
