Does anyone here have any information on how pg vg will interact with copd, bronchitus, asthma, enphasema(sp), probaly not, so saying something cant be caused pg or cant be vg is not true.

PG is used in the medical inhalers for the treatments of those very issues.

You need to relax. I answered your question, that no, I never experienced those symptoms, and that no, there is nothing to suggest that they would be the cause. No, I didn't list out the hundreds of reasons why, I recommended you ask your doctor. I don't have your medical history, and I'm certainly not qualified.

However, I have done extensive research (for myself, before I started), and you also are the first person I have seen - anywhere - to suggest that its somehow related. But apparently, not getting the answer you seemed to want to see, you got angry with me.

That generally won't make people think you're here as someone friendly, honest, or actually using a PV. Its how people react to a nasty attitude.

Dr appt is on friday, but have been fine since i started sinus rinse and stopped exhaling vaper out my nose. What people fail to understand and I don't know how, because it is in several posts, is that I have seen several Drs. and have been xrayed , blood tests blah blah. It has always been either the bronchitus, coughing to hard, or my sinuses. That does not mean I am not going to the dr. it means I do not rush out to the emergency room when it happens. I made the appt, and I will go. All i wanted was to ask if anyone else had this happen/ My thought behind asking ...... I have read on here that pg, and vg cause drying out. I cough up pinkish to red tinted phlem in the winter on mornings that my nasal cavities have dried out due to having the heat on during the winter, and bled. That drains down and into my lungs and i wake and cough it up, yes this has been verified with drs. that is why i have been told by several that a little blood is ok. Green orange means infection, pink red means my sinus has drained. I wanted to know if the drying out factor of pg vg could cause the same affects as the heat running in the winter time, and make my nasal cavity bleed. I figured if it could it may have happened to others so i asked. What a mistake that has been. What i got was several attacks from what i can only imagine are people who care nothing for helping others , or answering question, but just want to lash out with what seems to be a mildly retarded mentality. So for them I spelled out the entire thought process behind my asking the question in the first place. Once again I always planneed on going to the dr, called the day following the holiday when someone was there to make the appt. Made the appt for my first day off. Never wanted medical opinoins from anyone, just wanted to see if drying out was possible to ease my mind untill i could get into the dr, instead of that i got razzed and made fun of until I smoked analogs , WAY TO WELCOME NEW PEOPLE, if you want an exclusive " I vape and have no side affects forum", keep it up you are on your way.

See, this is what I was talking about.

The first posts, myself included, were answering no, and asking you to see a doctor for your own well being, and later some additional answers from personal experience.

But this quote has been your reaction to everyone on this thread. You know, if people didn't care, they wouldn't say "See a doctor", they would say "oh thats nothing, dont worry about it".

I'll just put you back on my ignore list then, if this is how you act. *shrug*.

I had a horrible hacking cough after I quit smoking,it would make my eyes tear up! My hacking cough was so dry,I thought maybe I should go back to cigs! But of course I didn't,now it has been about 5 months or longer since I quit and I do not cough at all.I used to carry a water bottle with me at all times,when I ws a smoker,cuz I knew I would have hackers cough at inappropiate times. Do not worry about that anymore

[ladybug]

Well,Schadoe,what did the dr.say? Did he do tests? Hope everything is O.K.. I had a lung exray that came back O.K.Wheh!

Hey Shane!
Im glad your going in to the Doc on Friday I have not had your issue with the vaping, and I was told i have the start of Emphysema. With smoking i was coughing up brown gunk in the morning.. the only time i had any blood was pre-vaping..2008 I think, I was sent to the mayo for tests ect.. I never really got much of an answer tho they did detect a good bit of mold. (we have since moved)

As far as the Ash thing BigJim, I have known Shane aka Schadoe and his wife for oh... 6 or 7 years now? He is definatly a good person at heart and not that type.

I think with the current situation due to the FDA and ASH we are all a bit stressed out.

Actually, your comments were directed at me, starting at the very first page.

I'm not here to argue. Just want to point out that your tone is why people reacted to you, and didn't trust you. The people here are remarkably friendly, and nothing but that can be expected.

People also react to blaming PV's without a good reason. To give you an idea (this is a complete exaggeration, I'm just demonstrating a point):

E-CIGS WILL GIVE YOU AIDS!!! I haven't been to a doctor in 30 years, and I started using an e-cig a week ago, so I had to go because we don't know whats in them! And I have AIDS! So e-cigs cause AIDS!!!

Since we do know whats in there, and we actually have alot more information and studies than people believe, including on inhalation and not just the inclusion of PG/VG in foods.... this annoys the ever loving crap out of people.

Your first post came off as "Ahhh crap, I'm coughing up blood. Am I alone here?" After that, you seemed to get irritable and your tone felt like you were desperate to make your PV responsible. I'm not saying that you were trying to, I'm saying thats how your posts came across.

I won't say anything else about it, but thats the reason people react the way they do here, and why they reacted the way they did in this thread, myself included.
