Here I am stressing out a little about the latest "symptom" that's popped up since I started vaping three weeks ago.
Woke up feeling as though I'd undergone botox treatment under and around both eyes. Didn't look nearly as bad as it felt but very disconcerting non the less.
I did look a bit younger though.
Ok so automatically I'm freaking out thinking.....Is this an allergic reaction? Swollen face?
Hardly likely because I did have a stye in one eye leading up to this. I know it was a stye - yesterday it seemed to be forming a head and was very painful.
So in all likelihood infection has passed from one eye to the other - or at the very least overnight a build up of fluid has traveled across to the other side?. Gravity? I've seen the fluid from an "egg" on my kids forehead travel down to settle under her eyes. Weird but it happens.
And the reason I got a stye in the first place? Well I'm no doctor but I reckon that when you give up smoking it must throw your body into absolute CHAOS, therefore reducing your immunity and as a result all kinds of things can crop up.
Plus, I have a nose piercing which I do fiddle with at times,and styes can be caused from the staphylococcal bacteria found in the nose.
I've also been experiencing some very annoying face flushing. Horrible! God help me when I go through menopause. I'll be walking around with cold packs permanently pressed on both cheeks!
Again the thought crossed my mind.....Could this be from vaping?
Enough is enough though!
If you haven't already gathered yes I am a bit of a stress head and seem to be very in tune with every squeak my body utters (hate that!)
So, I found this Anxiety Symptoms
A list of hundreds of anxiety symptoms that I thought I'd post up here in this section in case there are newbies to vaping, like me, who also are prone to hearing every single damn squeak of protest their bodies are announcing at this very stressful time (quitting smoking!)
This may very well allay some of your fears IF you know you are the type who's stress/anxiety manifests itself very readily physically.
By no means do I advocate self diagnosis , nor consulting the internet alone which can lead to "cyberchondria".
Of course if symptoms persist.......DO see the doctor.
It's just my thought that perhaps many of the symptoms that may occur as people take the simultaneous swap from cigarette smoking to vaping may very well be simply from the stress your MIND (and body) is going through after giving up a habit that may have stretched for decades.
I feel better already having seen that face flushing is on the list and in all probability that's why I'm experiencing it.
Sending soothing calm vibes your way!
