Awesome! I could never quit cold turkey, so I’m proud of you too and wish you luck with your withdrawal.
I haven't enough willpower therefor I switched to vaping and hope to refuse nicotine at all. My first vaporizer was Migvapor and I totally satisfied, good device and price.
I’ve never heard anything about allergy to cigarette smoke, but I felt something like this after 3 months without cigarettes. When someone smokes near me, my nose got stuffy.
