    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Got an Oden's Classic portion in now. It tastes similar to the Lab 02 though it's only 8mg. Very light taste and not a lot of salt. It's a keeper but the o2 portion is slightly smaller and 50% more nic.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I believe that the stimulant in nicotine causes the excess acid production. I don't always have any indication of a problem which is why the GERD catches me unaware. In 2006 after my hospital stay I was sent to a gastro dr where he ran an indoscope. He found I had gastric ulcers and peptic...

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    What surprised me the most in 2006 was to find out that Nitro will releave GERD. My gastro Dr. said that the esophagus is made of the same type of muscels that the heart is. Nitro causes this type of muscel to relax. Sounds like the next time i'll take Bicarbonate of Soda and a full glass of...

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    GERD is heartburn on steroids. I've had heartburn before and it doesn't hold a candle to GERD. The pain is caused by spasums of the esophagus. The pain is very intense and I even get pain in my jaw bone. Just like a heart attack.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I'll have to give that a try. I'm taking Zegrid to help eleminate acid right now but it isn't working when I over do the nic. I found out that Zegrid is simply Nexium with Bicarbonate of Soda. My co-pay on that stuff is $75.00 a month. Oh don't get me started on BP rants.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I think you are right. I'm hoping to learn how to detect when I need nicotine and when I don't. Ill have to break the habit of vaping when I really don't need it. What surprised me today was that I was really hitting the snus hard last night and didn't have a problem. I wasn't doing the...

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    It's possible OTD. I know the nicotine half life is very short, a couple of hours, but maybe the reaction was delayed? I am watching it closer now and really don't feel the urge to vape. I'll just have to come up with a solution. This morning I was doing both at the same time. Pacing my...

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I'm not sure how many people have this problem. I don't think it effects everyone the same way. But, I know that there others having this issue.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I had the kitchen sink thrown at me back in 2006 when I was hospitalized. They ran every test they could before coming up with the diagnosis. I could wear a heart monitor but it would take the doctor to read the data. Nothing I could simply check would be available. I can't go through the...

    No, it's the nicotine.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    Thought I would start a new thread since this one will have a single purpose. Nicotine and it's effect on mine and others GI track. I had problems with vaping 36mg e-liquid. I would get GERD and have a real bad time with it because it feels just like a heart attack. I finally lowered my...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Yep, I have hopes that this will be an ongoing fix. Time will tell. Actually I only have one more sample to try, the Oden's Classic. The other flavor is the General Wintergreen that I have already tried. Tomorrow the 02 and the frosted mini's are going to work with me. Sleep well OTD & DB

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I think I've done my last portion of the night. The Thunder extra strong wintergreen is something I definately felt. Wow, the taste is like you would expect, strong and wintergreen. Didn't have to wait long to feel this one. Got 2 more samples to go and will save them for tomorrow. My skin...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Jacobsson's Ice Fruit is not gonna be one of my favorites either. It does the job butnot my favorite flavor. But you know what? Even the worst taste so far tastes better than a cigarette,

    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    Wow, I think you covered it very well. It is what it is regardless of what I want it to be. Thanks TV. I guess Welbutrin must not have turned out to be what they thought it should be. You hear no one talking about it. So it either didn't work well, or the patent expired and it became...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    How often am I supposed to pop one of these in? I don't want to OD the first night. The Catch white eucalyptus isn't bad but has a lot of salt taste.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I will be cautious with my judgment on this until I am sure of what I am feeling. A placebo can take you for a ride for a little while.
