eye gunk

[txrankin5]

Ok so I have been off and on with my pv. Whenever I am "on" seems i get a lot of, for lack of a better term, eye gunk, some sort of build up of something in my eyes. Could this be an alergic reaction? Anyone else have this problem?


....vaping mostly pg

This year has been horrible for allergy problems in my area in Arkansas so I would blame it on the fact that everything kinda "bloomed" at once after such a hard cold winter. My personal experience has been that I seemed to have some pretty bad allergy symptoms during my first two weeks of being off analogs but six weeks into vaping with no analogs and I've found that I need far fewer allergy meds than I did when I was smoking. I do get a film on my eyes and eye "gunk" around my tear ducts but nothing at all like I had a few weeks ago and I breathe with no wheezing at all. Your body will "detox" and some of the symptoms during transition are uncomfortable but if you stick it out, I think you'll find that the benefits of tossing the analogs and replacing with a PV are amazing. My vision seems to be better now too and I think I need to get a weaker strength of reading glasses as I'm finding that I have to move my head closer to my computer screen to read. Oh, and I love the fact that my teeth don't get "filmed" over now by mid afternoon. My advise is "hang in there and don't give up!" I believe your eyes will clear up as you get more and more into vaping and drop more analogs but don't ignore any signs of a possible eye infection such as unusual redness and irritation. See your eye doctor if it reaches that point.

I would assume it to be allergies. Tis the season!

I notice this a little bit also when I vape more and smoke *much less*. I am not sure, but maybe it's my body clearing out the tobacco toxins or gunkiness created by the base of the all liquids I have tried. Possibly because of the pg/vg's property of adhering to water particles, which is the reason so many suggest to drink ALOT more water when vaping. I'm not sure, and it doesn't bother me much. Better breathing is worth it to me.

Yeah my allergies have been crazy too, but this has something to do with the vaping because it only happens like this when I vape. It seems like its my bodies way of getting rid of the pg or something. Its not that annoying really just an observation.

Possibly your body getting rid of a lot of analog toxins. A lot of people have symptoms of headaches, achiness, depression, insomnia, runny nose, night sweats, etc. when they quit smoking analogs. I mentioned those six because those are the ones I had.

No eye gunk but it seems like my whiskers are getting harder to shave.

I get the eye gunk thanks to Sjogren's Syndrome. It makes my eyes really dry, I don't produce enough tears to keep them cleansed, and they stay constantly 'gummy' for a lack of a better word. Since the juices are drying it makes my SS slightly worse, especially if I'm not careful to keep my fluid levels high.

When vaping remember to drink more fluids, without caffeine preferably, and try Omega complex. It's what my doctor suggested for the SS and it certainly won't hurt if it's caused by pollen instead of juice related.

Thanks for the advice. I drink a lot of water all day long, always have, maybe i will try the Omega complex. Is that like a vitamin or something?

Haven't noticed but I will surely pay closer attention....

Np It's a supplement, combination of Omega 3, 6 and 9 oils, from fish, flax and borage. If you find it too harsh (I have a sensitive stomach and either the flax or the borage can mess with it.) just go with the Omega 3. You'll also want to make sure the brand you use has been purified, it keeps away the fish burps.
