Vaping Side Effects?

It could also be the VG causing some of your problems. Everyone is quick to blame PG, but since you started with a mixture you don't know. Might be worth cutting a small amount with PG only and trying that since your niquid already had PG in it.

Heard a few stories with similar effects, have not experienced any myself

He is correct. hard saying if your having an allergic reaction to PG or VG when you are vaping a mixture.

What is the exact brand of VG you used? Not all glycerin is VG, some is derived from animal fats which happens to be cheaper to produce and some members have reported reactions to that kind of glycerin.

It will take some time to sort out if your are allergic to an ingredient in your liquid if that is what you are experiencing. i wouldn't go out and spend a ton of money on different liquids trying to figure it out. Simply make a few small batches of straight VG as directed above and try that out first. Also insure you are using a true Vegetable Glycerin USP grade 99% pure product.

Hope you sort it out, keep us updated.

Also a side effect that occurs in 99.9% of all vapors:: Anger, confusion and general mental distress caused by the FDA and big Pharma.

Now that is funny and oh so true.

I had a very similar, flu like 'reaction' to some camel flavored ejuice I tried a few weeks back - months after I started vaping.

I stopped using it immediately and felt a bit better but my money is still on having a touch of the real flu than the ejuice - my boys started school just around that time and there was a touch of something going around the office. Plus, I vaped with some marb and hilton I already had during this time too without any further problems.

There are possible allergic reactions to PC/VG and a 'bad' batch of ejuice can happen - it is food stuff.

I suggest you get/try another brand and flavor of ejuice. I've not had any problems since that one situation with just that one sample flavor.

Hey guys, thanks again for so many responses. I got the juice that I am using from Dawn @ E Cig Smoke Store. I got some also from RMV but I didn't us that to mix anything that I had been using yet. It is 36 mg unflavored. The VG and PG she sent me is "Pharmacy" grade. How can I just use VG if it is too thick and gunks up the atty? I was told that you can't just use it by itself. So what do I do? I'm lost. I feeel like I may have wasted 150.00 on something I can't use without being sick. I am feeing a little better, so may try again today. Will make up another batch with just VG if you guys say I can do that. Thanks so much for all your help. You guys are awesome!!!

I do believe you can thin your VG with "distilled" water. Someone else please chime in on this and help her out with a ratio of VG to water please. I have never used distilled water in my mixes so can't say for sure what ratio to use.

Also keep in mind Jamie that flavorings are usually PG based.

The search feature is your friend. Here si what i found on the subject of VG and water. have a good read and hope it helps.

No-nic VG only formula

Recipes Only (non Nicotine or other premade e-juices)

this link is in reference to vermont vapors liquid which is VG based: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/for...-problems.html

You can also thin vg with pure grain alcohol, either use everclear or a vodka with high alcohol content
