My wife is concerned about the Overall safety aspect of vaping. She is saying her chest is feeling tight lately.... Anyone have issues with this ?

And as a side note is there a diff grades of PG and vg? She was saying the juice we have has had a strong TH..... But she bought some mount baker vaper Spring break. It says 70%pg/ 30% vg Yet is smoother and not much of a TH at all? Its in a Acrylic CE-5.

Thoughts on any of this?

No coughing or wheezing.... She said its just tight like when we smoked.

The New flavor is smooth....... strangely enuf.
Tight chest is sign of nic overdose (along with headache and dizziness). This is because the nic causes irregularities in the heart beat. Ps, mt baker sells 65/35, slightly smoother than 70/30.

the nicotine will effect her.

Also how long has it been since she quit smoking?

Some people do have sensitivities to PG or VG or even specific flavors. The only thing you can really do is experiment a little. Get the same flavor 100% VG then get it 100% PG then change up the flavor.

I find for me I cannot vape higher than 50% PG or I have real problems. Other people cannot tolerate VG. It is an individual thing.

This ^^^. I also don't tolerate too much PG well. I vape 70% VG. It's not a tight chest for me, but my throat gets irritated. How much I vape affects it too.

VG and PG need to be USP (United States Pharmacopeia) grade. Any juice form a reputable manufacturer like Mount baker Vapor will have this.

This is also a great resource;

A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette.

Best of luck with it!
