  1. I'll probably decide to sell it pretty soon. It's in the refrigerator and is still sealed, so it'll remain fresh for a long time. I tried to find the menthol drops on freedomsmokeusa and couldn't find it. Would you see if you can find it and post a link. Thanks!
  2. Thanks for the encouragement. These days the insurance companies tell the doctors what they can prescribe, which is ridiculous. And, yes, they do blood testing which is much more sensitive to continine, a by-product of nicotine, than the urine test is.
  3. The deal with the insurance is this: You must state that you have had no tobacco products for a year. Well, that's all well and good for me, because I have a year's freedom from tobacco, namely cigarettes. It's just that I don't have a year free of nicotine, and they have the right to test anyone at any time. I've simply got to get that stuff out of my system. When you mention adding menthol, double mint, etc., are you referring to flavor drops or to PG that's been flavored? I assume that I need the very strong drops to add to the tobacco flavor that I already have that's 0 nicotine. Am I right? Oh, and to make matters worse, I just bought four huge bottles (500ml each) of tobacco flavored e-juice from myfreedomsmokes.com, and the only one I can use now is the 0 nic bottle. The other three have nicotine. Do people sell much of that in the classifieds? Do you think I ought to list those three bottles?
  4. Hi gang, It's been a while since I posted, but I haven't forgotten y'all. I've just been vaping away with my Joye 510 and enjoying myself. Now I've got problems. My health insurance company is going to drop me if I test positive for nicotine. They sprang this non-tobacco use policy on retirees last week and gave us no time to wean off of nicotine. To me vaping doesn't equate with using tobacco, but the insurance company tests for nicotine and contanine in the blood to make their determinations. Can someone tell me what to do to increase the throat hit using 0 mg. tobacco e-juice? I made it three days with this stuff, and this afternoon I couldn't stand it any more. I got out my 24mg. bottle and gave in to temptation. I might could better handle the nicotine withdrawals if I could vape with something that had a kick to it. Also - does anyone know of some kind of medication to take for nicotine withdrawals that does not contain nicotine? Oh, and this might be off topic, but I read on line that there is a treatment you can take that will purge all nicotine and contanine from the bloodstream in three days. Is anybody familiar with this? If so, does it work? Please let me know.
  5. Thanks so much for your videos, Doc. Please try to get them in the hands of the politicians and lobbyists who are trying to give us all a hard time!!!
  6. That's some mega vapor! Now tell us how you did it.
  7. Hi Teresa, Welcome to the forums. You'll find a lot of great folks here who are always ready to give you any help you need. I've only been at this for a little over a month, and I've found that Vapor Talk is the place to be! Small world, isn't it? I ride by AJ's several times a week. It's still there and doing a booming business despite the economic problems these days. I think that any time you directly reply to an individual, it will put in the quote from the specific post you're replying to and your comment underneath that. Then it puts it all at the end of all the posts for that topic. I don't know if this description has made any sense or not, but you did do it right. Again - Welcome! ....Pam Oh, and thanks for the compliment on the picture of my Border Collie, Bryce. He's my baby!!
  8. I'm going to try to gradually cut the nicotine strength of the juice I'm using. Right now it's 24mg. Is there a direct correlation between the number of milligrams of nicotine in the juice and the power of the throat hit?
  9. Hi Sensay, Welcome to the flock. You've come to the right place for help. I experienced the same thing when I first started about six weeks ago. I thought I was definitely ODing on nicotine, as I was using the high-nic juice, 24mg, I think. As I was told, you'll vape more than you smoked, because your e-cig doesn't burn down, signaling you to quit like an analog does. You might want to pace yourself, putting the e-cig down to cool for a while between drags. I actually timed my vaping. I smoked a regular cigarette, Doral Lights 100, and timed how long it took it to burn down and how many drags I got from normal smoking per cigarette. Then I timed myself vaping, and Wow! I was keeping that thing in my hand probably twice as long. I think you'll find that cutting down on the nicotine level might not help, as doing that will make the throat hits much less satisfying. After a while, when you've learned to pace yourself, then add a little 0 nic juice to gradually cut back on nicotine. I'm afraid you won't be happy if you suddenly just go to a milder vape. Hope this helps. ....Pam
  10. Hi Nana and Lisa, It looks like you two might be onto something good. I've only been at this about a month now, and I've already tried the tea bag mod, polyester fiberfill to use as a cart filler, and direct dripping. None is foolproof. What I've found with fillers is that after only a few drags, I still have to top off the cart and jiggle it around a bit with an opened gem clip. For all that trouble I might as well just drip. Let me know if the blue foam is the answer to all of our problems. Can't wait to hear back from you. ....Pam
  11. I've been using the same atty now for two and a half days without blotting or blowing it out. It's one that I boiled, and I must say that it is getting better. When I start using another I've boiled, I'll remember to give it several drops from the start. Thanks, everybody! ...Pam
  12. I'm experiencing about the same thing. It seems like after boiling, the burnt taste comes much faster than it previously did. I don't use cartridges, but I'm having to drip much sooner than before. Even though there is still ample vapor being produced, the taste becomes bad after only about two or three drags. Does anybody have a fix for this?
  13. Thanks, everyone. I think you've definitely laid to rest any worries I've had about the juice I've been using. I appreciate it. ....Pam
  14. Thanks so much for the great info. I have some more juice on order from Rocky Mountain Vapors, but later I'll give the VG a try. ...Pam
