Your on zero nicotine - it's making you feel ill. Stop vaping.

Sorry if that sounds harsh but if it makes you I'll it ain't worth it.

In addition I wouldn't vape VG from a pharmacy or use cotton I have to boil.

Do you not have access to a vape store either physically or online?

Well, the hand to mouth, inhale and exhale can be helpful, but if what you are vaping is making you ill yes, you should stop vaping what you are vaping. I don't understand the whole boiled cotton thing, and pure VG is hard to vape. I'd dilute it with 10% water (are you using flavorings?) and I'd probably buy cotton and VG from a safer source, like a vape establishment, so that you know it's pure and safe for vaping.

How much are you vaping, that can end up being an issue, if you're vaping too much. You also could consider diluting with PG, some folks find VG in large amounts causes a heavy feeling in their lungs.

I'd recommend completely changing what you vape-- in the sense of using pure, reliable ingredients, and not max VG.

Most importantly if it persists, see a doctor.

Well, the VG from Walmart is USP grade so that Would Not be the problem. Many of us tell users they can use it, so why, suddenly, others think that is an issue is beyond me.. Consistency people??
But OP never said Walmart.. So, OP needs to say if the VG was USP grade or not. Hopefully this pharmacy isn't selling aromatic type VG..

No listing on wire or even the device. No Nic.. Probably burning the cotton to cause the coughing and headaches.

Let me guess, got into vaping to do to "tricks"? That is the only plausible reason I can think of to vape flavorless, 0 nic, pure VG. If so I have to say please stop. First, as a non-ex smoker you are doing things your body isn't used to, so it is going to react. Second, people starting just to do vape tricks, makes things worse for people that want to use these to quit smoking.

Pure Vg, thats pretty boring. You know that flavors only cost 1 and some change at Bull City Flavors. Use code ''JV10'' on your first order, All your orders after that Use code ''JV6'' These are my codes from Youtube Josh Vapes Videos. I hope you luck. I also get headaches sometimes when I vape. You need to stay hydrated.

I'm not sure this dude should be adding anything to his vape, but seeing his doc and then using better vape materials, possibly.

Though, this does strike me as one of those "hit and run" posts that like to come along invariably and want to have recommendations moving forward; my answer to those is ALWAYS see a doctor.... I sometimes consider them possible ammunition posts, though to the OP if that is not the case, I deeply apologize.

You should still see a doctor.

Im getting headaches after vaping. I also cough alot.
I vape 100% glgcerin i got at a pharmacy.
I am using cotton i bought at a pharmacy wich i have boiled.
when I first made ejuice I tried vaping the vg to see how thick the clouds are to settle wether or not a 70/30 is fine for me to chuck clouds or I need 100%. It chugged away and maybe three or four fillings of my rda later I felt pretty weird. No coughing but definately felt a little off or sick.. when I dilute it mix it steep it then vape it I can go all day no problem... you could be allergic to it... some people are.

I also got some free juice one time that made me cough a bunch and my throat hurt. Chucked it immediately and cleaned my tank and changed my coil.
