I am feeling dizzy after vaping for a week

[orly1777]

Hello. I feel dizzy after vaping for my first week. I am using PG. Maybe I am vaping too much or too little. I used to smoke 35 analog cigs a day. Now I am vaping 24 mg. Please help me. Thanks a lot in Christ Jesus. Orly

i bet it's withdrawal from all the junk( like ammonia) that was in the analogs. It will go away or.... try vg juice.

You might be vaping to much maybe cut down to 18mg and see if that helps

 

[malyden]

I would recommend cutting down the nic level sounds like you might be getting too much.

 

[orly1777]

Thanks for your help. I will cut down to 18 mg and I will use VG. Thanks a lot.

 

[malyden]

Sounds like a plan! Best of luck

I forgot to mention that I am drinking coffee while vaping. Thanks for your help.

Is this dizziness only after vaping, or a general light headed feeling?
Could be dehydration, a lot of people don't drink enough water when first starting to vape.

 

[malyden]

Yes as VpnDrgn said it could also be your body needing a little more water especially if you're drinking caffeinated coffee which may cause additional dehydration.

I SUSPECT IT'S THE NIC LEVEL.
(fool caps lock...ha!)

I am drinking a lot of water and juice. I didn't have any side effects during the first 4 days of vaping. Maybe I need to drink more water and juice. Thanks a lot in Christ Jesus. Orly

If you have quit smoking, you are beginning to detox. All the mood altering chemicals are noticing they aren't getting their usual dose and letting you know

Detox sucks, but it's worth it.

 

[orly1777]

Thanks. I can see that it is part of the detox the fact that I am feeling dizzy. Thanks.

Detox of other chemicals above and beyond nicotine should be very minimal by percentage.
Nicotine is the biggie to get right.
Being simplistic, since there is much more to it...Too low, and you get twitchy, and crave...Too high, you get twitchy and possibly run into complications. Dizzy can be from either direction as well.

It's a balance you will need to achieve. It's no different (or not much) when switching cig brands. You end up not liking one but the other is too strong, and yet the other gives you effects you aren't fond of. There are some chemicals lacking in this one, but that one has other issues. This transition is a little more intense than that of a cig change, but the basics are still there.

You'll find it. Hang in!
Ever try going with decaf coffee? Effects are not good. Ever drink a double shot expresso in a tall Columbian?
You'll be all over the board before locking down to a favorite setup.

orly, if you are feeling dizzy then you should see your physician immediately. I would call him and ask if you can get in for an appointment, or if it is an emergency should you go to the hospital. He will know your medical background and can determine whether it is a result of the e-cig or some other underlying cause.

 

[orly1777]

Thanks, anfernio. So far I think it is due to the e-cigs transition, because it is a slight dizziness. I will take your advice into account if I keep feeling dizzy. Thanks for your concern. Thanks for your help. Thanks in Christ Jesus. Orly

I experienced the same symptoms when I first started vaping.
More water will help keep you hydrated and help detox.
When you exhale a vape the PG or VG carrier absorbs moisture from your lungs and when you exhale thats mostly what your seeing.... moisture from your lungs.

I started drinking 8 or more 8oz glasses a water a day and those symptoms went away.

 

[orly1777]

Kot, your insight is very useful to me. I am drinking a lot of water and sodas. I am feeling better. Thanks a lot in Christ Jesus. Orly

Good idea, just keep an eye on it and go see your doc if it stays like that. It's normal to feel dizzy now and again. If you stand up too quick or whatever, that will do it. If you are constantly dizzy, that could be a problem. My rule is ABC as far as what is an emergency. That stands for Airway Breathing Circulation. If you are not getting enough blood to your brain, then that can be a circulatory problem, and that can be an emergency. However, it can be a million other things that might not even be a problem, but only your doctor can figure it out with tests.
