So he didn’t stop after the first lung collapse?
Don’t put stuff into your lungs.
Except air.
Typical leftist. “I can’t handle it so everyone else must be regulated.”
I’m stupid, therefore there should be a law against stupid.
Popcorn lung?
Marlboros were my poison of choice, but I gave them up fifty years ago because of sinus infections. I’d quit smoking for a few weeks when I got one. When it was gone I would start smoking again and bam... sinus infection again.
It was actually a fortunate thing, because I hate pain and smoking brought pain, so when I finally quit it was easy.
Health / life BUMP!
Trying to figure out the challenges with vaping. Is it the chemicals they take in, the physical mechanics of vaping or both?
When this first hit the spotlight I understood it was ‘off market’ brands containing chemicals (and THC) that were the only devices causing problems.
What has changed that it is solely vaping causing these issues?
I have never vaped or smoked but have many friends and family that do.

This happen to a young male, we know, in his teen years. He was a 3 letter jock in a good private school.
His coaches told him if he wanted to commit to a miserable life, to continue vaping.
He quit and seemed to get back to his sports, and never reached his endurance and skill levels before vaping.
Yet another “Don’t be a dumbass like me” article. Stupid people, doing stupid things,until something bad happens to them, then they want to save the world.
I vaped to help me get off cigs. Once I was off I slowly worked my way down the nicotine levels to zero. Then after a few months of no nicotine I stopped vaping altogether. Worked for me.
Projecting being stupid as a trap that anyone can fall into is how people assuage their own subconscious sense that they are stupid.
I’m surprised there are no reports of fentanyl vape cartridges.
I’ve been vaping since it came out. It helped me stop three pack a day habit. Last checkup, my lungs were clear. I’m able to do things without running out of breath. She’s probably putting pot in hers.
Never vaped, but I was a pack a day smoker off and on for 35 years. Quit twice, once for nine years and once for five years. Hardest thing I’ve ever done was to quit tobacco. Been clean now for over ten years and finally feel like I can breathe again. What’s amazing is that this country was largely founded on tobacco. I believe we even sold tobacco to England during the Revolutionary War. Any historians out there tell me if I’m wrong.
