you guys vape when you're sick?
I got the flu Saturday night -- just came on like a freight train over the course of about 5 hours. I was pounding beers so at first I thought it was from vaping too much when my throat started burning more than usual after big drags on the ecig with 30mg juice. Then it was medium-sized drags on 16mg juice causing pain... Eventually I couldn't even take a small hit off of 0 nic Peppermint juice (had zero throat hit the other day when I wasn't sick) without a wicked throat burn.
Pretty soon thereafter I noticed the achy feeling, and my nose was starting to get clogged... Slept for a while and a few hours later I woke up with full-blown flu....
So now I'm depressed because I've been coughing up a lung and my throat is so tender I still can't take even a tiny hit off the Peppermint. And when I try, it sends me into a coughing fit where I cough up more phlegm. It's making me think that this vaping stuff might be much worse for me than I thought if it can cause that kind of reaction from such a tiny hit. Or maybe it's steam. I'll test that hypothesis when I make some tea.
Just wondering how long it'll be before I can vape again. If I wait too much longer, what's the point of starting back up? It's almost been 3 days now, so the nicotine withdrawal isn't really there. And I already broke myself of the cigarettes (never going back to them...), so I almost feel like what's the point if it's bad enough for me that I can't take a tiny hit of 0 nic juice -- and peppermint -- one of the most soothing/cooling flavors out there? Why keep doing it? That's a really depressing thought after spending all of this money...
Just sucks.
