A British girl smoked “vape” for a year and a half.. and after examining her lungs, the shocking surprise was

Al-Marsad newspaper: A British young woman revealed that she had a respiratory disease that could be fatal, after a year and a half of “addiction” to electronic cigarettes (vapers).

Abby Flynn, 20, said she developed bronchiolitis obstructive, or what is known as “popcorn lung”, a condition that could make her dependent on ventilators for the rest of her life.

According to the details reported by the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, Abby was not a smoker before the summer of 2021, when she decided to inhale “vape” as an experiment.

But soon the young woman fell into the clutches of electronic cigarettes, as she smoked a full cartridge every day, equivalent to 140 cigarettes per week.

“I started vaping about a year and a half ago. I had never smoked before so I went straight to vaping,” said the young woman, believing she could have quit at any time.

But she admitted that the e-cigarette “was constantly associated with it. While driving and even while sleeping.”

Recently, Abby woke up to a respiratory crisis, and she was immediately taken to the hospital, where tests revealed that she had “popcorn lung.”

She added, “They asked me if I vaped. They said I have a lot of air pockets in my lungs, which is what they call popcorn lung.”
