Hi @greenpea yes, I am back.
Have been snowed for a while and not had capacity to check in, but recently had a meltdown and quit my job so some more brain space to check in again.

@PeppyPatti . Last year I quit smoking cigarettes and swapped to vaping. My chronic cough stopped. But I still have COPD and only 65% lung capacity. This year I haven't made a dent in stopping or even cutting down on the Vapes. It's very hard.
