1 year vaper, odd thing

[beeflord]

Hi, I've been vaping about a year now with amazing success. A very strange thing has been happening to me and i just wanted to see if anyone has felt anything like this because it very well could be something else. At night while laying down to goto sleep, when you are like "half-sleeping" I jump up and gasp for air like I wasn't breathing or something. This could be something completely different like sleep apnea, which i really dont know too much about, but i have never experienced this before. I was just wondering for the longer vapers here if anyone has had something like this happen to them.

Thanks!

Have been vaping for about two months now so I cannot comment on long term use. My advice, GO TO THE DOCTOR!!!!! Could be sleep apnea, but I am not a doctor.

I've been vaping (heavily) for over a year and a half with no adverse events such as the one you describe. I think you should see your doctor. I would be surprised if vaping was related to this problem.

Sounds like sleep apnea to me. But I'm not a doctor. hint hint

I had sleep apnea, and it sounds a lot like what used to happen to me. Go see your doctor and get scheduled for a sleep study to know for sure. It's best to catch it as early as possible, because it is potentially dangerous for your health.

I'd say sleep apnea too. Hubby has it and when he did this, he scared me half to death.
Once on the machine, he even stopped snoring.

My money's on Sleep Apnea too. When you're asleep and not breathing well, sometimes the body won't wake you up... When you're just beginning to fall asleep, the mind may notice: "Oh wait, we aren't breathing here!" hence the big gasp and instant awake.
