Geez, I need to check this post more often as I missed out on a bunch of newbie hellos (so much for my old-age aspirations of becoming a Walmart greeter). Welcome to everyone that I missed. Hope you enjoy your stay!

Just thought I would introduce myself. I’ve actually been playing with Ecigs since 2007 and completely converted to vaping from cigarettes around 2010. I’ve been in and out of this site for a while, just hiding in the background and never created an account. I started mixing myself about 7 years ago and have 4-5 mixes that are my ADV and have done a lot of work making mixes for friends so i have a fairly large amount of supplies lying in the background. just seems i’m always missing one or two ingredients when the time comes for a new one and end up with more than what I need come ordering day.

I have discovered that there are way more better flavors than the analogues i used to smoke.
I have also discovered i didn’t actually like the flavour of the analogues after all and now i’m enjoying some of the other flavours by experimenting but thanks for your advice.

You just told my story hon except I’m 58 & have cancer. Try coffee flavors, their what satisfied the most when I first quit a bit over 2 years ago “DaMomma’s Morning Kicker” is an excellent coffee drink, the best I’ve tried, Good Luck!

Glad you asked. Cathedar is out, transfusion in, almost everything is working as it should or at least as best it can considering all I’ve been thru these past couple years & half my bladder has been removed. I’m beginning to feel human again, BLESSING-!

Now that I’m beginning to think clearer I’ll do that​:blush:. I have to have more biopsies done in a few weeks, we’re hoping it didn’t slip into a lymph node but the appearance of cancer so quickly so far from the original site doesn’t bode well.:frowning:If these come back positive also, I’ve been advised to check in with Cancer Centers of America. I should know something by 6/1/16, if not they’d better have a good explanation for the hold up.
:newspaper:Believe it or not they did have a good explanation for the last time. You’ve hear of those computer viruses called “ransom ware”? Well, two of the larger hospitals in my area, unfortunately the two that have been handling my care, were hit with this! :astonished:All records were encrypted & they were give an enormous amount to pay. Both hospitals have been crawling with the FBI for a couple months now but finally had to pay up! The 2 have merged now to keep doors open & I expect they will file bankruptcy also.:chart_with_downwards_trend:

Thank you so much for the nice welcome, HoneyGram57! Love your sense of humor…especially with all you’ve been through!

Yeah, the years add up with smoking cigs that it’s hard to believe that I smoked that long. Just so glad I’ve been able to finally quit. It’s been 6 months now and I’ve only had a few times I’ve even thought of smoking one but the nicotine does the job of putting the brakes on that. I’ve been fairly successful at DIY juice lately, too, with a Key Lime Pie and a Strawberry Shortcake recipe I’ve glommed off of here that taste great!

I’m so very sorry to hear of your cancer but I am hopeful that things will get better for you. My friend who told me about vaping has nothing but good things to say about Cancer Centers of America. If you have one in your area you should definitely check them out. If not then I hope your current doctors are treating you well and that they come up with a good plan for you. All the best to you!!! <3

Hi! I’m Mandy from Minnesota. :slight_smile: Relatively new vaper (September 2015) and brand spanking new diyer. I decided to mess around with making my own liquids about a month ago. I’ve already figured out a few recipes that I like and I’ve saved a ridiculous amount of money. My husband and I both vape and are both kinda picky about our flavors so this has been perfect for us. I’m working on cloning our favorite juice from a local b&m right now… and it’s driving me nuts. Lol! I’m close, but no cigar yet. If anyone happens to be familiar with Sexy Lady (honeydew, passion fruit, and berries is what their description says) from Uptown Vapour/Just Ecigs and wants to help me out I would be eternally grateful! :wink: I’m happy I found you all!!!
