My Pulmonologist said ABSOLUTELY NOT.... placing other chemicals in your body than what is in a REAL cigarette. A friend of mine has been doing it two years, yet ended up in the hospital 5 times, COPD. She has NOW given it up. If anything the water vapor, if you must have something, would be, I would say, possibly safer than the OIL. I am NT a Doctor....but so far, a few of my friends use them, no COPD do they have yet, but, do not cough as they used to do, nor have other problems or illnesses as much... but I AM NOT A DOCTOR...!! Just if you cannot give the cigarette up... I know. I was a heavy smoker, BUT, I suffocated for hours. Dying. Was in Hospital over Christmas for two weeks, back in Hospital n February for 1 week and still paying the Hospital bills off! BUT, can breathe some......... 3 inhalers, oxygen which is confining, and nebulizing... wish I had educated myself MORE on COPD. No, NOT smoking any more!! LOL's! Probably would choke absolutely t death. No LIE! Suffocating over 7 hours and then not breathing right, well, not fun at all, and would have jumped out the Hospital window if I could have! But,....couldn't?! Tis that bad........ wishing you GREAT LUCK! YOU CAN DO IT I know if I did, believe me!

I use the vapor 0 now I just hold it now like a security blanket I guess you do what ever it takes on oxygen 24\7 good luck it will but takes time but worth it ,

Kathleen wilkinson your story and mine sound the same. No lung dr. But how is your breathing now and how long has it been since you quit. I'm 9 days today. With a panic attack last night. Rough day today. Just wondering.

Sorry, I went to the hypnotist did the trick straight away for me it was the Allen Carr clinic in Putney they have a website

I used the ecig took me about a year. Started on 12nicotine and am down to 0 don't use it a lot anymore. But I try to stay busy reading, crochet, knitting I do all kinds if crafts and when I'm busy I just don't think about smoking
