Chest Pain caused by Vaping?

[Lakelet]

I've been a long term Vaper on and off since 2012. I picked up heavily at the begging of 2015 to kick smoking. Months later, about 2 weeks ago I had a bad ear infection leading to a sore throat now to "indigestion" if I sleep and wake up I feel great but when I take my first vape of the day my chest goes into an instant tightness I generally vape 30/70 or max VG lately I've been having a menthol flavor and that's when the problem
Arourse, I tried switching flavors but the other was just some bland peach ...., lol. I was wondering if this is common and what is the fix!

EDIT***
People don't like to read lol, I've been to the doctor who diagnosed indigestion, but it only occurs the moment I start vaping if I don't vape I don't get the problem.

2) max VG 0mg seems to make it worse.

3) no heart problems

4) no caffeine intake (aside from one ejuice)

5) on a diet with exercise so it's not from unhealthy eating.

how many millilitres per day do you vape

You may should mix the vaping habit with a training/cardio or gym..

I'd like to add I am having some of these symptoms;

They come
After 4-5 drags now and when I lay down the pressure goes away. But on avg 3ml per day now.

Indigestion? chest pain? Could you have any heart problems? Might want to get this checked out by a health care professional.

3ml a day? I vape 3ml in 10 minutes with no issues

 

[petrotech]

when I chain vape high VG (70% and above) my chest gets "heavy feeling" with a slight cough. Try using some 50/50 juice and go from there.

Lower the nic

You said it started after you added menthol... could be you're allergic to it.

Side note, I find it funny, same symptoms for nic OD are the same for tylenol(acetaminophen)

Are you really think "with no issues"?
I wish you best, but...

Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor just like caffeine, which means it tightens your blood vessels which can cause that feeling of tightness in your chest. If I were in your position I would get checked out by a doctor and in the meantime reduce nicotine and caffeine use to a minimum.

Best of luck with it

Get some Prilosec for the indigestion. You stated the issue started around the same time you switched to menthol...switch flavors for a while, even to a bland peach to find out if it's the flavor you are having issues with.

Peach still gives the problem

I've already been to the doctor, he didn't even know what Vaping is.

First let me say a doctor is the best route. Now that I've said that I'll suggest a few things. Acid Reflux can be one of the issues. You might find an answer in one of these threads:

Okay, time to take it into stages. Already talked to a health professional, we narrow it down to one of the 4 ingredients and a step down of sort on others.

1) Vape on a unflavored nic liquid of your normal ratio, stated 30pg/70vg start there at your nic level, still having problems, go to step 2
2) Vape on an unflavored 100% VG liquid of your nic level, still having problem, go to step 3
3) Vape on an unflavored at a higher PG ratio, 70pg/30vg or thinner, if throat hit is to harsh, lower your watts down, still having problems
4) Vape on an unflavored, no nic liquid

Reactions are caused by one of those 4 base variables from the most common to the least common, flavorings (which are generally in PG), the PG itself, then the VG itself, then last the nic itself, once the culprit is eliminated you can most likely add flavoring again. Right now I am leaning toward the Menthol flavoring is tearing you up, that or if it from a new vendor of liquid if you do not DIY or a new flavoring vendor if you do DIY it the vendor's bases and flavorings giving you issues. Just my 2 cents and good luck.

Higher than 50% VG gives me, heavy chest, not really pain but pain like. Maybe you are developing a sensitivity to either VG or PG. Could also be nic level.... You will be more sensitive, after sleep and long periods of non use.
