She said its not uncommon to still have sinus issues for a period of time after quitting. Your body is going to be healing for a long time.

Somewhat related but on a tangent: I used to regularly get upper respiratory infections... like once every six weeks or so. I haven't had a one since I started vaping at the end of February.

I had clear sinuses til I got a cold in late Sept, cold was gone in about a week but I still have the sinus problems. If I don't use a sinus spray I will wake in the wee hours unable to breathe and the vapor irritates my nose and causes me to sneeze if I don't exhale thru my mouth.

I've also had chronic sinus problems, specifically eustaction tube dysfunction and nasal drip which have remained after quitting cigarettes, however it might be that the body needs more time to repair the cilia of the upper respiratory tract after decades of smoking. Two months is nothing.
