I am having no negative reaction to vaping or to PG (and I don't have fibromyalgia).
However, my wife (a life-long non-smoker and non-vaper)
does have fibromyalgia, lactose intolerance, and multiple sclerosis (and generally a very sensitive system).
About 2 weeks into my vaping, the tightness in her chest that she sometimes experiences flared up (and has continued). [That tightness first flared up about 10 years ago after some acupuncture sessions.]
The timing of this recent occurance coincided with my starting to fill cartridges of my new DSE801 penstyle with e-liquid (and some DIY mixing). [Previously I had been vaping a KR808D-1 with prefilled cartomizers.]
I have since moved out to the patio to do all my vaping (just as I did with my analog smoking) and I store all my liquids in a sealed container (which I don't open until out on the patio). We believe/hope that her chest tightness has eased a bit.
I am not 100% sure that her recent problem is due to my vaping. For 2 weeks, I had vaped (virtually chain-vaped) in the
same room as she with no problem. The past week or so the heat and humidity (and rain) here in South Florida have been unusually high. Perhaps the pollen count has been high as well, but I don't know.
Ironically, she seemed to have the most intense reaction when I mixed spearmint flavor (intense) with
VG.
We are a very committed couple (married 32 years), so her health and well-being is extremely important to me. At the same time, I am really enjoying the vaping experience and would like to vape more often (i.e., inside), not just during outside "smoke breaks."
Does anyone here know of any instances of reactions to
second-hand vape? Or have any suggestions?
Thanks!
