Health Issues Since Beginning to Vape

Has anyone had digestion issues since beginning to vape? I'm not saying that the vaping has caused this but I've suddenly developed a bad pain on my right side and the only thing I can think of that has changed has been that I've stopped smoking Newports and began vaping cig-a likes. Granted, I'm vaping more than I smoked because I can vape just about anywhere. I use South Beach Smoke menthol cig-a-likes full flavor cartridges and I used to smoke a pack of Newports every couple of days. I've had an ultrasound but I don't think they found anything. It could be something else, I'm just curious if anyone else has had issues.

My gastro issues and IBS have actually gotten a little bit better, I'd DEFINITELY consult your doc. You COULD try different vg/pg ratios or different juice vendors. My local B&M juices burn my mouth and throat like crazy and they claim 50/50. Funny, I normally buy 50/50 and the same 6 mg.

I've spent years fighting belly stuff, consult your doc.

Try taking a spoonful or two of extra virgin olive oil on an empty stomach before bed. I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis a few months after quitting smoking. Vaping doesnt help matters either as it drys you out, but taking olive oil at night and drinking water throughout the day cleared things up and it hasnt returned.

echoing what's said above, this is not medical advice and stay under the care of a qualified professional... but that said, have you increased your water intake since starting to vape? If not, please do. I am drinking almost double the water of what I used to. i can definitely tell when I'm not drinking enough water! I don't get pains though so it may be an entirely different issue.
