Getting the hiccups after a draw..

[KrasH]

I am randomly getting the hiccups when I hit my VP, there is no rhyme or reason, just happens every so often. Is this just a reaction from the warm vapor? Is it a PG thing? Anyone else have this happen? I am not overly concerned, but I am curious. I know for a fact it is from vaping and not something else, just not why it happens.

Any thoughts would be great!

Hi

Check your vaping technique. (Videos in the ECF library and on YouTube.) It sounds like you may be swallowing air when you vape and ingesting nicotine in the process. If you are, in effect, gulping vape and it's getting to your stomach that could be the trouble. It's a known problem that swallowing too much nicotine in saliva produced by that nic-o-gum quit smoking aid will produce hiccups.

The other way you might be ingesting nicotine is if for any reason you are getting the liquid in your mouth - not the vape - due to some sort of problem with your setup. For some folks I have talked to it doesn't take much liquid. And they never knew ingesting nicotine could induce hiccups.

Look for sources where you might be swallowing and ingesting nicotine.

I will try to watch for that the next time it happens. I did forget to mention that I do have a hiatal hernia and I don't know if that could be the problem. It is very random and does not happen often. I am using a ViVi Nova and a few different Cartos as well. I guess I should try to see if it is a certain juice or device causing it as well. Must be more vigilant on what is going on when it happens. Thanks for the information, i will check it all out.

There was another thread recently on this here. I had noticed my hiccups in the past, and it seemed to be caused by vapor (with nic) condensing somewhere in my throat, as if I had partially swallowed a tiny drop. I sucessfully duplicated it by using bad vaping technique. It took me most of the rest of that day to un-learn that bad technique.

It happens very rarely, seems to only be with the ViVi Nova tank, I could be getting a little juice leaking when vaping. I have tried to reproduce it and can't, it is totally random. I was more worried about it being a PG allergy symptom.

Tryto hit your PV a little Slower.

The only time I get Hiccups is when I get a little e-Liquid in my mouth. And the Only time that happens is when I hit my PV with a Very Hard Draw.

I hit it even and slow, not like a cigarette. I am hitting right, at least I think so and it is so random it is hard to pin down why.

How much Water do you drink?

 

[KrasH]

Four to six glasses a day, plus whatever other fluids I get. Probably not enough. Thinking it is a dehydration issue?

Perhaps.

Try drinking a little more Plain Water. It's good for you even if you don't Vape. And Essential if you use an e-Cigarette.

What strength are you vaping? I have never experienced it, but too much nic makes some people hiccup. I have a friend that smokes, and chews three pieces of nic gum at the same time, he gets hiccups.

That's a Good call. I should have consider that.

Also, how long has the OP been Vaping the e-Liquid that makes He/She Hiccup?

I used to get hiccups even when smoking if it was windy outside.... Don't ask, I have no idea. I thought it had something to do with extra air coming in. The swallowing is very interesting and that might explain it.
I do know that I found out how to get rid of the hiccups very quickly after this happens is to take a drag into your mouth then immediately inhale through your nose with your mouth closed, lol. Sounds funny but it works.

18mg to 24mg, but it is still very random and not happening all that often right now. Going to increase my water intake and see if it has any affect.

Thanks for all the replies and suggestions everyone!

This happened to me last night.

Vaping 36 mg like a freight train through a Vivi Nova - hiccup...hiccup

It's happened before, but I don't remember what device I was using. Now I'm
starting to get them just talking about it

 

[KrasH]

I think I only got mine with the ViVi as well. Hmmm

 

[KrasH]

I will keep this updated just in case we figure it out

What juice were you using?

 

[bivie]

I think it started with homemade RY4, then I switched Heather's Dragon's Fire.

Good stuff.

I think when I've got hiccups I was getting maxed on nicotine. Through the day,
36 mg is fine. But in the evening when I'm chain vaping, I try to drop to 24 mg.
I didn't last night.
