thanks do much

That's brilliant. Kind of puts a great big dent in the "e-cigs might be harmful" argument doesn't it. Glad it's working for you.

Hi Jules

Very well done and I am exactly the same as you - had asthma all my life and having smoked (also all my life - well nearly!!) and given-up after about 8 weeks SMOKE FREE my lung capacity quadrupled as well. Now over 6 months smoke free and I have managed to stop the inhalers - well the steroid one anyway and only take the ventolin every few days, this is amazing / a miracle. I wish to remain only positive about all this but I think some damage has been done by the steroids over all those years but I am dealing with it (I think!).

Keep going & best wishes

Jonathan

NOPE

isnt this fantastic. i always denied it made my astma worse but after only a few weeks smokefree i stopped coffing. stoped the steroid inhaler and reduced the ventilin by half. now 3 months down the line with this test i have to agree its the best thing i have ever done. i will never go back. i know i cant repair 40yrs of smoking. but looking forward lifes going to be much better thanks so much for your reply.
