Hi Sammim...I saw you post last week when you were vaping 18mg nicotine...IMO trying to go up to 24 mg nicotine will not help with your gagging problem. Have you tried to decrease your nicotine level or even the zero nicotine to see if that may be part of the trouble?
There were a lot of good suggestions on the other thread, did any of those work for you?

Hope you're able to resolve this soon, there is a learning curve for some of us...I coughed up a lung the first time I tried it. Do you remember the first time you took a drag off a real cigarette? For most of us, it was cough, choke, gag....uh hahaha...and then drag again. Keep trying but maybe with a lower nicotine level than you have been using.
GOOD LUCK

Your cleaning out a bit it seems...no more tar blocking your throat and lungs. Should actually take a good month for ya, but that tar coating is disipating. So now your getting your taste back, and feel...thats my opinion. I started having a slight varience to that myself, but wasnt bad. I had to lighten up the hits, or drop mg. You'll get it back, but you will have to get used to it now. Sounds like the tar has finally worked its way out of your throat. Drop nic, or take lighter drags, fewer seconds on that button. Hope that helps.

Some liquids and flavors "burn" me.. Can't stand them.. They feel like I'm inhaling bleach. And I can't nail it down. I don't believe it can be blamed on pg or vg or nic. I mix my own juice and no matter how much pg or vg or even nicotine it never does that to me until I get that one wrong flavor.

I've figured out that the cheap pina colada juice I had did it, probably, because it was slightly acidic. (because of the pineapple) I got good pina colada flavor from Perfumers Apprentice and it's a-lot better but still does it to me. Coconut does it to some extent but I enjoy it anyway

I think it varies wildly person to person
My brother in law and sister can vape my pina colada juice ALOT easier than I can. I think because they're still smoking (a very few) cigarettes and they haven't been off of those long enough for their nerves to grow back.

"Why can I not inhale 24 mg of vanilla??? "
depends on the vanilla.. Just got a regular vanilla at 24mg and it has way too much of a TH for me and I don't have a problem gagging when I vape..

Try vanilla's with a creamy texture to them, like vanilla custard or vanilla milk/cream with a mixture of VG/PG.. they are much smoother and don't usually have that tangy thing to them that makes some gag... Also lower your strength back to 18mg or lower!!

if that don't help: if you are using 808 batteries, try cool carts cartomizers. they don't get as hot and produce less of a TH IMO..

Have you tried changing juice suppliers? I love Hypnotic Myst juice and I have it from two suppliers (same 60/40 VG/PG ratio, same nic level). One I can vape all day long and it doesn't bother me a bit, but the other I have to be careful with because it ends up hurting my chest if I vape it too long or too heavy.

Just a thought.

I hope you can figure out the problem!

I have one juice out of my PILE of juices that does this to me. It's not because of some strange medical condition and it's not because the juice has something bad in it or it's gross to me. It's because the throat hit is wayyy too strong. It makes my throat feel strange because my lungs want me to cough but the vapor's so thick and harsh I want to swallow. So, that = a gag. Rofl hope this helped.
