Earl, get back to us when you figure it out.
Everything you have posted has a spin on it. People are having negative effects from vaping. You are trying to say it is something else, or that it isn't common. Hey, it actually is! Some chose to post, some quit and go away and some work through it. I get horrible headaches. Not from withdrawl, not from too much or too little nicotine, most likely from PG. Are ECigs safer than traditional cigarettes? No doubt in my mind. Am I having an adverse reation to PG, yup!! PG is a nasty chemical. You can talk it up that its FDA approved all you want, it was approved many many years ago. It would never get approved now, but is too much part of society. That being said, we are inhaling it! I will try straight VG. The jury is still out, and I guess we will all figure it out. But, Kristin, until you can put a report in my hand that says that it is safe, that was not paid for by someone that is associated with ecigs, you are no authority. At least we all know tobacco isn't safe, we truely don't know what ecigs are at this point. 5 years from now, we could all have lung cancer because PG is more toxic than they knew, because up to this point, when has anyone ever inhaled this much on a daily basis??? Never!!
Vaping is 1000 times safer than smoking, but no one has ever claimed it is 100% safe. What's with all the censorship on ECF lately? Let Laguna share his stories, GEEZ!.......
Additionally, it's been over a month now and he/she has yet to come back to confirm that there was nothing else wrong with him/her and quitting vaping made the symptoms stop. Or if he/she went back to smoking or switched to something else. I really want to know if it's been verified and I think others do, as well.
Not everyone wears rose colored glasses and believes that everything in our juice is safe and couldn't possibly cause any harmful effects on our bodies.
Kristin, I believe that it is your way of coming across that is the problem here. I do not disagree with what you are saying here, but, you want everything to be a known fact from a doctor. Flip it around. You show me they are safe and that people cannot have issues. You will say that there are known issues, but people are not used to that. Dehydration, you don't get that from tobacco, and dehydration is not normal. Tell people what you know, be empathetic, and more forward. What you are doing is a knee jerk reation, making people feel like crap, not liking you or vaping. I will continue to try, but the way you are approaching this, makes me want to stop and start a campaign against it. You seem to need to be right. Relax, try to answer questions and sooth people, and quit getting so defensive. And DON'T post back telling me how people need to goto a doctor. Their concerns are valid, and they most likely do NOT have a health concern. It most likely is coming from vaping, and is minor. Give advise, and stop the drama!!
Well said Earlfleetwood. This is a forum and everyone has a right to post their concerns\thoughts here. How will we know about the possible side effects of vaping if no one posts their experience? I didn't think there were any "thought police" here....may have to check again.

Bravo!! You put into words what MANY of us feel. I think Kristen has done the industry more harm than good by having this exhausting and constant war of words with people. You're right, some may have taken more of a stance against e-cigs just because of the way she makes people feel and her need to always be right and with SOOOO many words!!
