Anyone experience numbness?

[mn shutterbug]

I've been vaping for about 1 1/2 months, and every few days I feel a little numbness on one of my lips. It's like I've been to a dentist. It goes away overnight and reappears about once a week or so. It's quite annoying. This wasn't happening when smoking analogs. It's got be either the PG or nicotine. This has been my only side affect.

I'd recommend going to a dentist, sounds like a root canal, I don't think vaping would have anything to do with numbness, but I could be wrong.

mn, I just posted my experience on another thread:

My results/symptoms to date:

I started on 1/04

1) I've had a minor runny/stuffy nose since then (no big deal)

2) chapped upper lip since then

3) week 3 I had an eye twich (lasted 1 week)

Now, I've been using 24/36 mg and I think it may be too much (i smoked 1 1/2 packs a day and thought I needed hi nic) I will cut back to 18/24.

A previous poster stated that you have to monitor your reaction and adjust accordingly. I totally agree!

Bottom line, This may save many lives. I have no regrets.

Hope this helps.

That sounds more like a stroke than vaping.

 

[Blonadier76]

yea i honestly would get that checked out.

 

[Lab]

yeah i was going to say that sounds like stroke symptoms.. or nerve damage..

I would get it checked, but if you get any juice on your lip, that can cause numbness.

It's happened, but rarely. ALso, my juice is only 16 mg. A stroke? That's a comforting thought. I do believe that's a bit far fetched.

 

[Lab]

ok you probably have a drip out of your cart.. i just put a drip of 24mg on my lip and it is numb..

 

[mn shutterbug]

Lab, please let me know how long it stays numb.

 

[Lab]

it is still lightly numb, I am not a good test for this though since my arm has been numb like its asleep for the last 2 yrs from a car crash causing nerve damage.. and i was in the er yesterday so on loratabs and muscle relaxers now so i might not be noticing it well..

 

[Blonadier76]

yeah i think that would hinder some feelings!

Having had five strokes in my life, this does not sound like a stroke. I also have had about four root canals, my lip never got numb (other than from novacaine). My lip has gotten numb(ish) when I've gotten juice on them.

Wow, you've had a rough life. Thanks for your feedback.

Or, maybe it's more numb than Lab thinks it is.

 

[Lab]

do you but the pv to the left side of your mouth.. and how long does it stay numb for you.. i can still feel it numb but to me its nothing much..

 

[mn shutterbug]

Sometimes on the left side, sometimes on the right. When it gets numb, it usually stays numb for the remainder of the day. It's not totally numb, more like when it's in mid recovery from the novacaine at the dentist's office. When I get out of bed in the morning, it will be back to normal.
