The only times I have had shortness of breath while vaping has been with some of the stronger flavors, such as clove and today when I got my order with the WOW vanilla, though it didn't last for too long, but it probably will each time i first vape it in the mornings. (at least that's been my experience) I think it may have something to do with the MG amount, though I am not positive on that.

I know when I went down to a lower MG in the clove flavor I did not have the shortness of breath anytime i vaped it.

THANK-YOU everyone...keep any experiences you have coming. They help me think of the new things I've done. I did try some prefilled carts (that I haven't tried before) and I bought a new bottle of juice that those carts had been filled with, maybe that's the problem. I usually vape between 2 flavors. One I always use and the new one. I will also pull apart one of the cartomizers...when I put a new one on I didn't have the shortness of breath but now on day 2 with that cartomizer it is starting.I also have a heavy feeling in my chest. I will go back to the way I was doing things and wait for it to get better. Then I will intorduce 1 new thing at a time and see if I can figure it out. I didn't even think about the prefilled carts and the new juice. Thanks again everyone

I had the problem of weazing. I found that I was vaping out of control. Too much is not good. I slowed it down and I am ok. I have heard of an allergy to PG. VG is good and there is more vapor but I find the throat hit with VG is on the exhale. I will give you the best advice right now that no one has said yet. Call a doctor and make an appointment. Cardiologist is your best bet. Get a chest x-ray. Make sure you are okay before you continue. Or get some antihystimines like Zyrtec, its the strongest you can get b4 getting knocked out like Benedryl. It will make you tired, but not fall over on your face tired like Benedryl. Good Luck I wish you great healt.

Live Long and Vapor!!!

oddly enough the VG cartos really gum me up. I cough like crazy and have SOB with them. I find that my breathing has improved greatly (from smoking) when using my Vapor King PG all day. I have had good experiences with all the premium an wow flavors I have tried so far. I purchased PG juice from another vender and it gives me stomach cramps every time I vape it. Too bad cause it has great flavor! Keep experimenting and find something that works for you and stick to it. And like the above poster said, Check with yer MD to make sure. Good luck and I know you will find a happy medium.

Well this is my .02, might help might not. I have been using Smilin and WOWboy, I noticed that I do get a shortness of breath from Smilin sometimes, not others tho. I think when I chain vape Smilin it gives it to me, I would try a different flavor IF you want to stick with V4L.

WOW that is really odd...I don't think I mentioned it was a new bottle of smiling I was using. The first bottle I had was lighter in color and the regular style of bottle. The last one I got was a new style bottle????? Today I ordered and I order the other smilin. There are 2 different ones...one regular and one wow smiling.....I added a comment on my order for the reg.style bottle I'll see if that is the problem.I asked if there was a difference in the juice I'm waiting to hear back. What stinks is I really like the juice, maybe it's something in the wow juice I can't tolerate.When I stopped using the new juice I was fine....I'll give an update
