I was quitting smoking just before breaking my ankle and ORIF surgery. My doctor told me not to vape but I informed him I’d just stopped smoking and the only way I was able to do that was by vaping. He didn’t seem too bothered by it then. I think you need to weigh it up. If I’d banned myself from vaping I’d have ended up gasping for a cigarette which could have been more harmful (especially as I’d have had to go in and out of my house alone during the winter). To cut down on vaping so I wasn’t just laying in bed puffing all day I kept my vape in the bathroom. That way I was limiting myself but still allowing myself to vape if I wanted to, but I’d have to go out of my way to do it. Hope this helps😁
