Hi. I understand your concern s. You will need to stop vaping. Also you will need to undergo a detailed examination and investigation like pulmonary function test which is needed for the diagnosis as well as to assess severity of bronchitis based on which treatment can be started. Consult a pulmonologist for the same at the earliest.

I would recommend you to stop electronic cigarretes as well. They are harmful to the lungs as well. The shivering of hands could be due to stopping of regular cigarretes without any nicotine replacement. Please see a chest physician who can help you better after examining you.
