Im new to vaping (2.5 weeks) and loving it but my PV came with nic free juice. I am waiting on an order of nic juice so I've been substituting with nic replacements like patches, mints, and inalers. I find the inhalers give me immediate and lasting heartburn. I never got this from analogs. Has anyone experienced this from vaping?
Heartburn?

I've only been vaping for 2.5 days, and yes, I get a bit of heartburn after I've been hitting on it a good bit. My wife is trying to substitute vaping for smoking, started trying yesterday, and asked me this evening if heartburn was normal. I believe it is, but should go away once your body is used to the vapor. I read on another forum that chewing regular gum can remedy the heartburn, haven't tried it though.
I too had a little heartburn my first couple of days of vaping, but it was easily remedied with Tums, and like you mentioned, gum--in my case spearmint, which has always been good for me at soothing any upset tummy or heartburn.
nicotine relaxes the esophageal sphincter at the entrance to the stomach. This will occasionally allow stomach acids to escape into the esophagus and cause heartburn.
On top of that, Nicotine can stimulate the stomach to produce more acids and while its not AS MUCH of a problem with vapor as it is smoke, you have reduced saliva production which normally would help to keep the acid down and also has a mild bicarbonate(antacid) property to it, as well.
