No I doubt it. What is the PG/VG of your juice and what nicotine level?

VG can give me gas/heartburn type of indigestion.

Typical too much nic symptoms are headache. blood pressure changes, rapid or irregular heartbeat, overall yucky or hazy feeling. Skin/mouth/throat/lungs can get irritated (nicotine is a skin irritant) especially if you are vaping 100% PG which is also what the prefilled carts often are. I guess if you are vaping constantly or not used to nicotine then you could get sicker.

Forgetting to drink fluids can cause dehydration

And just stopping smoking can cause some symptoms for a few days (cigs have another 4000 chemicals in them)

Accidentally swallowing vapor can cause gas or heartburn too. Sometimes those food flavors trick your mouth and trigger a swallow.

Do you have a different juice to try? Sometimes a juice maker makes a mistake and a juice may have to much nicotine or be sloppily made. Stick to reliable brands. A

...possible but VERY UNLIKELY...it would take a massive amount of vaping to do so...especially at the nic levels your using...were you light headed and flushed...how about heart racing...these are symptoms of nic overdose...didja smoke before you started vaping...didja drink more water, vaping will dehydrate you...it is possible for a very small percentage of people to have an allergic reaction to the PG base of the liquid...more info about exactly what liquid you were vaping could help answer your question................

It could be unrelated. When I first started if I vaped too much with some juices I got an upset stomach. I thought it might be related to the flavorings in the juice since it happened more often with one juice than the other. Or on an empty stomach. Even when I smoked, if I smoked on an empty stomach I felt a little sick.

the ones i got all it sais on the container is 0mgs and the other one sais 18mgs??someone told me to order these and i got them from china i think i must have an unrelated tummy bug?thanks for your help

"Someone told me..." what brand, dealer, flavor, bottle look? You could conceivably get an upset stomach if the juice is low quality and some went down your throat. Not all juice from China is bad. I vape Dekang brand, world's biggest, but there are counterfeits. If you buy from China, try Dekang from Heave-gates.com.

of course it came from china, there really arent many (or any?) manufacturers outside of china, and if there are, they are using ingredients from china.

I would havvta disagree with that statement...while there are plenty of re-branders out there using Chinese juice there are MANY juice vendors mixing their own and using USA made products in their juices...times, they are-a changing and the Chinese are not the only game in town...at least for juices................

Prefilled 510 cartridges are Chinese juice. Juices from China are Chinese juice as are Dekang juices and some other 100% PG juices.

I trust Joye brand 510 and what they put in their carts. I don't really trust random clones. There are a dozen crappy little businesses in Shenzhen cranking out clones. Get decent juice, rinse out a cart and its stuffing, dry the stuffing and cart, refluff the stuffing and replace and use different juice.

Hi im new to vaping and just received my 510 yesturday,and dripped half 18mg with half 0mg any way ive had a really upset tummy since i started vaping could it be nicotine poisening?

What kind of juice did you get? Some have trouble with the spice tastes in juices causing upset. You might try vaping 0mg as much as possible. If the problem persists, you need a different juice and it's not the nic. If it goes away your body is telling you it's too much nic. If you listen, your body will tell you. You're also detoxing from thousands of chemicals from cigs. That's not a line, you just gave your system a big shock. Drinks lots and lots of water. It'll help escort the toxins out of your body and you'll feel better faster.
