Hi chronis, it can take a long time! I developed a cough after three months and was told that it was the cilia in my lungs cleaning out the last of the garbage. I smoked a pack a day but I'm not sure if it's even longer for a heavier smoker.
Have a look at some of the pinned posts on the right hand side, I'm sure there is something about timelines in there.
As a smoker I didnt have cough at all, now almost one year free of smoking still no cough ,. I'm vapping now with e-cig
