    Thanks Dave for posting that experience. I'm busted up, so Im mostly paralyzed. So, I have to rely on really watching the reactions my body has and look for the parallels. Its better educate ourselves than experience some things especially for, me as I can can to pretty funky reactions to altering substances! So thanks - at least You've laid out some parameters.

    Wow, thanks for posting this. I just got mine wednesday and I think I took it over the top. I received 26mg juice and thought nothing of it, thinking there was 26mg in the whole bottle. Anyways, being new to the whole thing I vaped A LOT on wednesday and my hands started shaking like mad.

    I hadnt eaten all day so that may have been it too. I dunno. It was crazy. I went to mcdonalds got an Angus burger, a fry, large coke, and a mc double. Felt great afterwards.

    So...... not sure if the shakes were because of no food all day or from the serious nic or a combo. But... If the shakes were from the nicotine, run to a fast food joint and stuff your face. I felt great afterwards and was shortly chainvaping again...

    I think Im gonna get some 0 nicotine stuff so I dont have to worry about this too much. I think Ive passed the point again tonight. Gonna put away the PV and go eat some doritos!

    Most probably a combo of the 2. That feeling is very similar to a low blood sugar experience. Feeding you face is good...

    Impossible! The recent Eissenberg Study says that PV's do not work and do not deliver enough nicotine - so you can't overdose on nicotine from a PV!

    /sarcasm off

    But seriously...if you vape to much nicotine you can overdose on it.

    Default i OD'd on nicotine today

    i dont know why it happened today. ive been using my husbands e-cigarette for a really long time now. i go between that and the gum. urghhh i was completely nicotine free for 10YRS when he bought the e-cigarette online. now ive had nicotine laying around my house for over a year and i gave in to my temptation awhile ago.

    so this morning, i see it laying there by the computer. his "juice" is right next to it. i opened it up and added about 3 drops of juice. which i usually do.

    it started as a mild case of heart burn and went into pure hell. at one point i was crying because i was scared i was going to die. the pain was unreal. i mean soooo unreal.

    oddly enough the pain came in waves, so for a few seconds i would be almost perfectly fine, then i could feel it coming on and i would dive right back down into extreme agony. it felt like i was being poisoned. but like how you would imagine like clorox poisoning to be or something.

    at one point the pain was so bad it felt like i was in a movie and an alien child was trying to work his way out of my throat! lol

    i hadnt eaten anything but a biscuit so i didnt have much to throw up. although my body kept trying to make me. i didnt realize it was the nicotine right away. my husband looked it up online. i had all the same symptoms of some others who had od'd. i wanted to know how long i had before it would subside.

    lets see, main symptoms were sore throat, then that feeling of heart burn in your throat, then like a dire need to vomit. this happened over and over like this every 20 seconds for about 30 minutes. some of the pain waves worse than others.

    BEST THING TO DO IF YOU THINK YOU ARE ODing!
    BREATH THROUGH IT
    LONG DEEP BREATHS
    SLOWLY SIP WATER
    TAKE A PEPCID AC OR ZANTAC OR SOMETHING HAVE A FEW TUMS.
    THE WAVES OF PAIN WLL LESSON WITH TIIME

    YOU MAY NEED TO CALL AN AMBULANCE especially if you are under 100lbs or a child has taken it.


    if someone is with you have them get water, you could hurt yourself by standing suddenly. i was dizzy, sweating and very sick.

    my throat is sore now, 12 hrs later and i am still exhausted. i was unable to work today and had to rest. and i am still a little ill.

    i dont want any nicotine in my body after that. all i could think of once the intense wave of pain would pass was, what if my dog found this, ate it and died like this????

    its like having teeny tiny easy to loose poison bottles laying around your house. then i thought of my granddaughter getting a hold of something like this. it really freaked me out.

    i mean they do smell good with there being all the different flavors and stuff. so it would attract a child.

    i dont think that if i had been a child that i would have made it today. wow. thats messed up.

    Get a check-up ASAP. I've done ephedrine and adderall which are far more stimulating than nicotine and I've never experienced nearly the kind of pain that you described. Even when dipping some nasty Skoal I only got nauseous and threw up - no chest pains at all.
