Do you suffer from asthma? I'm with Speedracer, go see a Dr. Did smoking cause this reaction? Are you taking lung hits? If so you should try the mouth to nose inhalation method. It never hits the lungs. It could be that you nic is too high or you're allergic to pg if it's in your juice. What battery and topper are you using?

If someone shows up here and combines "former smoker", "new vaper" and "chest pain" in the same post I only have one response: That needs to be checked out by a medical professional pronto.

It could be anything or nothing at all. But the potential serious implications are nothing we can safely play medical guessing games with here. And you already stipulated that one of the more obvious reasons for it is absent: You aren't lung inhaling.

Under many circumstances vaping is introducing a new insult onto years or decades of smoking injury. If your lungs are in worse condition than you think they are - that whole smoker's denial thing - even the introduction of a small amount of vapor may be revealing what is really going on. Regardless, that's only speculation - you need to get this checked out.

Please report back and let us now how you are doing and what you find out.

really ???? I have said this before! people say no way you are to young . I am 32 . I am using a basic e-go style . its called a white rhino and white rhino juice .

"People" say all sorts of things. Unless any of those people are a medical professional and have put a stethoscope up to your chest I wouldn't be counting all that much on those opinions. Vaping, under the worst of equipment and liquids circumstances, should not be inducing "chest pain" within a matter of a few non-lung hits.

Basically four ingredients in eJuice. PG, VG, Flavor, and nicotine. PG carries the flavor better but gets a hotter draw and has less cloud. Some get an allergic reaction to PG.

VG is thicker, more cloud, but less of the flavor is carried. Many juices come with some PG/VG options. Kind of in a nutshell.


If starting out there is a lot of references in the sub-forums. Or, you can just ask.
