having problems with ecig or ejuice?

[Peggyann]

I have the KR808D-1 and have several e juices from freedom smoke, wyatt earp, purecig max boro, ect but last week I noticed that they seem to have gotten harsh on my thoat and then I started to get a sore thoat and now a cough and can not smoke them because it hurts. I can smoke the real cigerettes though (I have to because I can't smoke the e cig) Is it the ejuice? I have both 24 and 30 mg nicotine and I also tried using the 16mg that came with the ecig and they are just as bad. Also - I can not smoke the sweet flavors because I don't like how they taste. Do I need to give up my e cig or am I doing something wrong. Please help as I really don't want to smoke the analogs!!!!

I have that problem when I use PG juices. since I switched over to mostly 100% VG all is good. I can occasionally use 70/30 mixes but not constantly or the sore throat comes back.

You may have a sensitivity to PG but there's a good chance that it's simply dehydration. PG and VG do cause you to lose some moisture in your throat and lungs when you exhale. Start drinking a ton of water, and if you start to feel a dry scratchy throat, drink more water. Maybe even something a little better at hydration like a gatorade type sports drink.

I have to drink a good 3/4 gallon of watter a day, which is not much more than I used to drink at 1/2 gallon a day.

If it's the PG that's bugging you, try a 100% VG juice. I know that the vast majority of FSUSA juices are 50/50 (in my opinion that's the best ratio), but if it's the PG that's bothering you, maybe you need to make the switch. VG is naturally lighter on the throat and better than PG for dehydration as well.
