A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette

[ramblingrose]

I was thinking about my symptoms with burning itching hands and vaping. Perhaps it has to do with better circulation. After quitting analogs, maybe I have better circulation in the capillaries in my hands. I used to get very dry and peeling skin on my hands each winter. I always thought it might be related to smoking and lack of good blood flow in the extremities. Maybe my symptoms are related to a good thing, blood flowing where it was restricted before...

When I started vaping I was worried about tingling in my legs... afraid I wasn't tolerating vaping well. But I did some reading and saw that tingling or itching in the extremities can happen when you quit smoking, for exactly the reason you say - better blood flow and oxygenation. It will pass. It took a few weeks for me, but I was a heavy smoker.

little white spots inside my hand.....dunno what they're...

I had no side effects when i stopped analogs 8 weeks ago.
Maybe this is due to the fact that i do an hour of cardio every day?

I have had no side effects to vaping either.

Sometimes i over-vape, and i feel the nic level is too high.
So i will stop 15 minutes and go from a 36mg dose to a 24mg.

Other than that...apart from a few occasional tantrums when an atty dies or the prodigy acts up...nada !!!

I have the opossite effect of not retaining water, I had to stop vaping for a few days because of the nasal dryness and constipation after the first 5 days, even after drinking lots of water, now I'm back to analogs I had such high hopes for e-cigs as my salvation from tobacco that I ordered a bunch of juice and atomizers, but I'm really drepessed that I might not be able to continue vaping. Anybody had this happen?

::RAISES HAND:: I have and am actively experiencing this most horrific symptom. I cannot poop! Its very frustrating! Food goes in... day one day two day three... food doesn't come out! I consume many doses of fiber therapy with my meals and I try to drink many fluids (I do notice I'm not as thirsty without analogs) but no success!

Thankfully, when it gets super bad, I have a plethora of glycerin (imagine that) and glycerin is an effective laxative when used as a suppository.

I am going to give it another day or two to see if my body adjusts before switching back to analogs again..

Anyone else have as dramatic of an adjustment in this particular area of health?

I don't know.... I've been vaping since June 1st and I can't get rid of this headache... Thought it was too much nicotine, so now I take my 36mg-30ml bottles and divide them into 3-15cc bottles and cut them in half with VG.. Still can't get rid of this headache...

I did have a headaches in the beginning and started cutting juice strength until they are gone.
Guess what - I can tolerate 12 mg without any problems and more vapor from added VG sort of compensates the whole experience making me a satisfied PV convert.

I got a few drops of Juice on my lip this morning and have experience sore lips and sore cheeks that simply won't go away. They become hyper sensitive when I brush my teeth or eat something acidic like ketchup.

Anybody else had this problem?

I wanna share!

background - smoked a pack a day for a little over a year, then stopped for a few weeks, relapsed for a couple packs, bought a 510 and haven't smoked a full cig in a month (and it was horrible tasting, wonder why its so bad)

when I first stopped smoking I got some vivid nightmares and a daily headache for a while, headache is gone, nightmares are easing but not gone

only thing I've noticed with vaping is dry throat with PG liquids (started with VG then tried PG), and if you don't hydrate it will get so dry you get the "razorblades in the throat" feeling I've seen some complain of - I played through the pain and after a week of PG it's much better, slight dry throat after 'chain' vaping but no longer annoying

no muscle pain or anything like that, still hack up some stuff from time to time, but attribute that to other things...

When I quit smoking (quit for a year and a half!), I did not get the "cough" nor any breakouts. I did gain a little weight. But that was quickly worked off at the gym. My sense of smell did come back, and that was amazing! The biggest thing was being able to smell smoke on my jackets or other peoples clothes. Needless to say, I did do alot of cleaning! I did unfortunitally went back to smoking and have been analog smoking for a little over a year again.

I am trying e-cigs to hopefully save money, breathe better, and get my better sense of smell back. I run about 5 miles every morning. And I would like to make it further and at a faster pace. My lungs hate me everyday after the morning run! LOL
