Throat/stomach/intestinal issues can be scary. I'm on medications for life from a stomach issue I didn't even now I had......until I collapsed at work one day.
took 2 surgeries to correct the esophagus so I could swallow properly again.

i just came back from doctor! they inserted a tube w/ a camera inside me and looked all the way from throat, to esophogas, to stomach, and into duodenum.
and to my surprise, they found nothing wrong! i was for sure it had to do with esophogaus bleeding but now they dont know for sure.
they said i need to now look at x-rays and also look into lower parts of the body, like going to gastrology or something like that...
i did have blood in stool couple times this year ...
i guess i'm not completely out of the woods yet!
i hope this means i can continue vaping but although it's going to be hard, will try keep it low for now.
thanks to all those who supported me, i truly appreciate it and god bless to all!
sorry if my thread sounded to scare off some people but i really thought some of the juices were irritating my esophogaus lining, which may have contributed to bleeding. especially the times i had burnt hits!

Good to Hear that they Didn't Find Anything.
But kinda a Drag that they Didn't Find Something. Because now you have to go Back.
Hope whatever they find that it is Minor.
Good to hear, you can rule out the upper digestive tract. The scope used was an Endoscope. It can show any signs of trouble visually to a certain point, meaning it can only reach so far. Now you are going to see a Gastroenterologist, a specialist in the digestive system, they will probably look up the "other" end to see if there is a problem in the small and large bowel. This usually involves drinking a Barium solution so they can see via x ray, the solution "glows" and can show areas of concern, look at it as a dye, really what is is in fact, very simple procedure, all you do is fast, get cleaned out(the hardest part of the test) and drink the malt like solution, then lay on an x ray table and they will take pictures of the upper and lower bowel.
They may opt for a Sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy up the "other" end, this too is using a similar scope only to look via the rectum.
I have my legs well crossed for you
now and wish you good results!
Best of luck, OP. Scary, scary stuff. I was having severe pain (12 on the 1-10 scale, worse than kidney stones they told me afterwards based on what I had) and the doctors could never find anything...until they did. Keep pushing them. I ended up having emergency surgery for transient duo-duodenal intussuscpetion. Kudos for being pro-active...but keep in mind for the future that any time you find blood or digested blood coming from your digestive track, it warrants an immediate ER trip.
Sending you good vibes!

As others have said, the decision to see a doc was very wise.
As for the connection to vaping, there is no way to draw a conclusion. Let me give you an example: the other day I stubbed my toe, and I've never stubbed my toe before starting to vape. Who would want to argue the case that stubbing my toe can be attributed to vaping?

OK Allow me to try
You were walking and vaping when you needed to have a look at your power settings as you did not get the results you expected, and OFC you had to not see where you were walking, WHAM toe meets the street lamp post....you are consequentially given a ticket for negligence while walking, vaping while walking. Your medical insurance was cancelled due to vaping.....Oh and BTW, put down your cellphone, vaping while using it causes accidents too!
how were you getting vape that far down the wrong tube?? I can understand from the mouth to the back of the throat to the larynx, but beyond that its in the trachea....
the first question i would have asked is: was it your own blood?
mebbe yer a vampire that's bit someone 'unsavory'.....
in all seriousness, hope yer docs find what's going on quickly. best wishes on a speedy recovery.
