Coughing

[pauly walnuts]

IMO, your nicotine level is too high. I smoked 1.5 packs a day of Camel Gold. I'm using 12 mg.

In addition, even though, you might have the right nicotine level, your body is still trying to get rid of the nasty things collected in your lounge. It'll take a while to get it out of your system. Drink lots of O juice!

I agree. I smoked a pack and half of full flavor menthols a day and I use 12-15mg. 36mg is just absolutely way too strong, especially for a new vaper who may think that a kick in the chest and burning throat is the norm.

I find that juices with a high VG ratio 80% or more makes me want to cough... I usually don't unless I take a huge draw.

70/30 pg/vg is what works best for me, but everyone is different.

my neighbor loves 100% vg. I just can't do it.

The OP lives in the Deep South. We have lots of humidity and high pollen levels. Lots of people experience post nasal drip the resultant cough.

Can ya take it back please? We're supposed to be dryer than this and the pollen is trying to kill me!

When I smoked, pollen and summer maladies didn't affect me that much. I have fewer colds and almost no sinus infections after not smoking for years, but I've become somewhat more sensitive to dust and pollen. For a day after I cut the grass, I'm stuffy and I quit wearing dust masks. With a beard and mustache, it's marginally helpful, anyway. There's too much leakage and the dust still gets through.

I've just started vaping, at 24%, 50/50 juice, and I cough - but it's different, and nowhere near as much as before.
Only been vaping for almost 1 month now.

I've been vaping for over 6 months now, and my lungs are a lot more clear - very little coughing, and then once or twice a week, for only a few minutes, with the congestion located higher up in my chest.
I breathe more easily now.
Vaping 50/50 juice, 24mg strength.
