I'm not quite sure you're being descriptive enough. Did you quit smoking? 2 weeks after you started vaping AND quit smoking? Were you okay for the first two weeks. Or I could just tell you what my dad used to tell me...if I had a head like that it would ache too. HAHA Seriously though...little more data might help.

So, you do not need nicotine. So, you can stop vaping for couple weeks to see it stops headaches. If not, see doctor.

Dude, my dad used to say the exact same thing lol

I get headaches if I vape a too high pg/vg ratio. I can't remember whether it's high pg or Vg. I think it's pg, if I go above 70%, I get headaches. I stick to 70/30. If I go above 30% Vg, i get sinus congestion

Make sure you are drinking extra water. It is easy to get a bit dehydrated while vaping, and headache is one of the symptoms of dehydration.

 

[Katmar]

Yes, staying hydrated is VERY important. Also, may be that particular flavor bothers you. You may have to experiment with flavors and PG/VG ratios, also. Good luck

 

[Goodrat]

Maybe it is the flavor or custard notes in the flavor. That bothers me.

Maybe you aren't getting enough nicotine...

You should consult a doctor if the headaches persist. We are not medical professionals

Here is a link that may help but ultimately, it is up to you to decide if it may be from quitting smoking (if you are a smoker that has quit) or something that a doctor visit should be scheduled.

3. Headache, Nausea, Shakiness

- but see #V4
These, together with irritability, inability to concentrate, poor sleep, depression and so on, are common smoking withdrawal symptoms. If you are using a low-strength refill liquid and not absorbing as much nicotine as when you normally smoked, you can experience these withdrawal symptoms, which typically last only a few days to a week. Perhaps the use of a higher nic strength refill liquid might be a good idea temporarily, reducing the strength as needed. But: see V4

 

[Oregon Linda]

I was just going to say the same thing, Robino. Headaches are a very common smoking withdrawal symptom. Most people have better success with higher nic levels in the beginning - around 18mg or even more. If you're only vaping 3 mg, that could be the problem.

I had the same issue when I first started vaping. Turned out to be that I cannot handle many/most aritificial ingredients in most commercial ejuice.
I quickly started to DIY all my ejuice. I started with Blueberry no artificial ingredient flavoring from Flavorconcentrates dotcom. along with of course VG/PG and nicotine.
I have since found several other flavorings that I can tolerate. Mostly from Capella.
Had I not started DIY I would have gone back to smoking.

I have a huge cache of concentrated flavorings that give me headaches. It was/is the flavoring for me..

 

[TheRac25]

3mg is what people chain vape in RDAs, you just quit smoking..........

Yeah I wind up tossing about 1/3 of the flavorings I try.
Various bad effects. I learned if they taste too chemically or make my lips tingle after a bit of use just toss em.

 

[HauntedMyst]

Maybe you aren't getting enough nicotine...

I have to agree. It's the combination of quitting smoking and not getting enough nic. Bump it up to 18 to 24mg and see if you still have headaches.

Also, are you married? It could be she is talking too much. I get a headache sometimes when mine is talking too much. Usually because she hits whacks me in the side of the head and says "Are you listening to me?" I shouldn't have gotten her such a big, heavy ring.

Try drinking lots of water. Vaping dehydrates you and can give me headaches if i don't consume enough water. Just a thought.

 

[MMcQ]

Is your setup clean? Sometimes if I go too long and let it get really gunked and nasty I find I'll start to get a headache from inhaling that junk.. Just a thought.

 

[Robert Cromwell]

I did find a couple of fairly horrible tobacco flavors I could vape without a headache or other bad side effects. Got from a tobacco shop. Buck Naked brand tobacco flavors and Clayton Tobacco flavor. That held me over till I started to DIY.
