No more than usual. It might be from swallowing small amonts of nicotine. Nicotine gum bothers my stomach.
Maybe check what/if any coloring is added to what your vaping. I think I read recently red 40, or red in general, is known to cause heartburn.
Yes, I have had an increase in heartburn episodes since vaping. I use maalox extra strength chewables when I have an episode and that seems to work just fine.
Yes, especially at first. And it seemed to be more pronounced with fruit flavors, particularly, my favorite. Blueberry. It came on about a month in, lasted a week or two and I haven't had a problem with it since.
It's fairly common from what I read here.

Othercat my experience is heartburn came on slowly thruout the years . Dad used to carry rolls of rolaid in his pocket when i was knee hi, older brother same thing , then me. , We all smoked.
There all gone and now just me.
Fastforward
Regardless caffiene, acidic things, smoke -nicotine, spicy foods etc can set it off .
Dont suffer with it , prilosec worked well for me and even less expensive and i use now is the stuff from Walgrrens tha has magnesium in it weather i eat spicy foods or whatever it works!
Lifes too short enjoy it and get something for the heartburn and vape away !

I have had heartburn problems for a long time and mine seemed to get better once I quit smoking. I second the use of Prilosec I could not live without it 
I have no idea what I am talking about but could this be caused buy a pg/vg allergy?

Every time I drop my nic level, I get heartburn like crazy. It lasts 3-4 months and then seems to regulate itself. The worst was when I gave up cigarettes for vaping. I had a roll of Tums in my pocket at all times.
I read on here that PG can cause heartburn so I went with 100% VG from the start. Even in all PG, cinnamon vapes and some tobaccos still give me heartburn so I just avoid them.
i used to get heartburn when i smoked. after i switched to vaping (8 months in) ive had in only twice.
I do sometimes. Seems it is from getting juice in my mouth and when i put waaayy to much menthol crystals in my juice
I had a brief stint with some nasty heartburn. Mine passed in a week or so, just took an acid reducer when needed
I found that drinking egg nog and vaping gives me heartburn pretty bad. Drinking egg nog alone gives me heartburn but its not too bad. I love egg nog but im finding that I can have only 1 cup of the stuff a week, any more and I'm dying of heartburn which is made worse by vaping.

Now that I think about it its more acid reflux than heartburn in my chest. It started out as heartburn but now is more-so the reflux. But if the reflux is bad it can be quite uncomfortable so I chew a maalox or 2 and it goes away almost right away..
VG gave my husband terrible reflux. At one point he thought it was his heart, it was that bad.
Since switching to 100% PG for him, it's all better.

I've noticed it, but usually it happens when I'm sucking on an older carto that needs to be replaced.
My guess is that because I'm trying so hard to inhale it's affecting my 'downstream systems', but not really sure. Sometimes those cartos get clogged and it's quite difficult to get a good inhale.
