    I am assuming that my acidic stomach is coming from vaping since it only started when I started vaping. It almost feels like an excess of stomach acid or something. I have heard that when people chew gum or other flavorful things that the stomach tends to secrete more acid and so am wondering if the flavorful e liquids could be causing a similar phenomenon. Anyone else experience this?

    Certain eliqiuds give me reflux. I've vaped for 3 years so I know which ones do. I have to be very careful NOT to swalllow certain eliquids, even a drop or from a "spitting" coil.

    If I were you I would try to narrow down which flavoring does that to you. A way to do that is to vape unflavored for a few days and see if the problem resolves, change it up.

    Here is some weirdness, I had the reflux for about a week while vaping on an Itazte VTR then i switched from a I30s tank to one with air flow and it has gone away. I don't know if it was because I was having to draw harder on the I30s or if the increased flow air helped "dilute" the PG going down my throat?? I'm putting the VTR up for sale as soon as I am verifed since the Kangertech Subox kit i have now is my go to.

    It happens to me with really sweet e-juices. Sometimes it gets to the point where I get so sick like food poisoning type sick. It's only happened twice, but I just learn what e-juices to avoid for me personally haha. Now, this was only flavor specific for a specific company. Their other juices were fine, just certain ones were a no go for me.

    If Vaping is causing excessive Gastronomical discomfort or Acid Reflux then you likely already have an underlying problem. Let your Physician know on your next routine visit or make an appointment to discuss the matter.

    After collapsing at work from an unrealized Acid Reflux condition{never suffered heartburn} I ended up having (2) Esophageal surgeries. Not a pleasant time. Now recommended Prilosec for life.

    Ya I've always struggled with Acid Reflux, and I found that diet is the main factor in preventing it. Certain foods just trigger it.

    I did encounter it with vaping for awhile- I think it was a raspberry one that seemed to do it. Also I was vaping literally in bed before I went to sleep and I think that was the main case.

    But now I just don't vape right before sleep and it has gone away.

    any idea what you nicotine intake is ?
    100mg per day is around a norm.
