Hi,I am a fourty year old female who started smiking at thirteen.Before discovering e cigs i tried nicotine patches,gum and cold turkey to quit smoking. All of those methods failed. I starting using an e cig Feb.17,2012 and havent bought a pack of cigs since. The transition was so easy! I use to get throat infections and severe bronchitis several times a year. Since i have been vaping….i havent been sick once.I feel so much better, i can smell, taste,run and no longer smell like an ash tray.
