Probably what you’re vaping, man.

I just had a very disturbing experience with some bad juice. I vaped this stuff all day in 24mg PG Vanilla. Toward evening I started coughing, bad! When I went to bed, I woke up very early feeling like I had done about 15 analogs (I’m smoke free). My stomach had that queasy, analog feeling. I could not go back to sleep.

I received an order for this product a few days ago. I was kind of suspicious of this super cheap juice, because it was so inexpensive and it came in plain opaque plastic bottles, with no information other than the flavor and the mg (I don’t want to flame the merchant here, because I’m not absolutely certain the juice was the problem, but I’m sure enough to swear off it).

I emailed and asked the merchant for a list of ingredients. The lists came back in Chinese. The chemical names and numbers/percentages were readable though.

I’m no chemist, but several of the chemicals looked suspicious, as I don’t recall seeing them in other juices, so I looked them up in Wikipedia. The toxicity shown on some of these ingredients was downright frightening! Even at 1%!

In the interest of not seeming to be a sissy, I think I decided to vape it all day just to see what the results would be, that is to see if my suspicions were correct. After all, I had mixed some of this stuff with other stuff, and I wanted to know if I could deal with it, or if I needed to throw the whole batch out.

Apparently my suspicions were confirmed.

From this point on, if the listing is not on the site, I will ask all merchants for an ingredients list before ordering any juice.

I think though, at our less than 6 month level, morning/start up vape coughs are normal. I posted on this and some of the pros said this is so.

I don't cough but do have a little wheeziness sometimes, which may be normal for me this time of year. I have noticed alot of throat clearing going on though, which in my opinion is probably from inhaling so much liquid that my lungs are needing to move back up and out. Not a big deal, better than trying to hack up chunks o'tar! And my voice is improved alot too.
I think too much vaping at night could be the culprit in the wheezing if you're sure that you don't have some iffy juice. Are you using high nic at night? I add a drop or two of VG to what I'm evening vaping often to smooth it out a bit. We all hear Steve is getting the VG soon, looking forward to trying some!

Are you using analogs at all? Do you have a history of allergy induced asthma?

It could simply be bronchitis. Or allergic asthma brought on by the rainy season.

Wash your bedding well and buy new pillows before you do anything else!

Sorry to hear that Bloop! All good tips - and I will add that being fall, my hayfever has kicked in pretty fierce this year. I don't have chest issues with it, but I am stuffed up and sneezing lol!

Lots of good suggestions here. Let us know what happens...

[Blooper]

it's just very strange. Maybe just some allergy. And alot of morning clear mucus, nose and cough (sorry to get nasty).

Do you tend to have hayfever in the fall? I never had hayfever until we moved here 20 years ago. Then I started getting hayfever every fall and spring. Or it could be you have a bit of a cold? I know the kids at the school I work at are getting a cough that lasts several weeks...

Though other things (like contaminated/low quality juices) may be causing additional discomfort, you're at the right time to start feeling your lungs shedding the terrible stuff you've been putting into them.
It only takes a matter of days after quitting analogs before the cilia (microscopic hairs) in your respiratory system start regrowing.. and usually within a couple of months your lungs start sloughing off a layer of damaged cells.
This is also around the same time, if you're not already showing warning signs, that your risks of long term health complications from smoking start dropping like a stone.

I've never used it, but some people seem to swear by nhaler's "lung juice" for restoring some health... think that might be one of my upcoming purchases, too.

Yeah I think I might try Nhaler's Lung Juice Sample pack

Kind of which V4L has a sample pack.
