I'm sure anything is possible, but most people if allergic, are allergic to pg (including myself) I dint think I have seen anyone here that is allergic to vg
I have heard of people with vg difficulties on this forum, less common than pg sensitivity but I know at least one person who breaks out in a rash at high vg.
Anything's possible, Mmc. VG probs are rarer but still out there. Ask V4L for a freebie VG carto on your next order and give it a whirl. Or maybe not. Be careful and all that.
Without V4L saying explicitly what the differences between a WoW and non-WoW juice of the same flavor is in terms of content and ratio you'll never know for sure what is causing the issue. Even then physical differences between say a CC or a WoW carto might be the issue (like a LR element might make too much vape for you to handle right now).
You could approach it by figuring known and unknown variables and eliminating known first. Like try the same juice in different cartos, and see if that is it. You could also try mixing at home by ordering PG and VG and nic juice and a flavor. Then doing different ratios of all those in the same carto model.
I've been thinking of making juice at home (for cost and I could always use a new hobby). It looks pretty easy, but knowing just the ratio to go with is what is tripping me up. The mixing forums are helpful with technique, but flavor and aroma are so subjective that I won't really know diddly until I get hands-on with it.

The quick vg test is to buy a small bottle of glycerin usp in a pharmacy, clear bottle, likely says skin protestant, and the only ingredient is glycerin 99.5%. Six ounces is about five dollars.
Put some in a small bottle, cut it with about 15% distilled water, shake and try to vape. Go slow, if you feel any effects stop.
Same can be done with pg, just don't need to cut it with water and it is not as widely available at normal stores.

U may be right about the cartos. I have wow cowboy menthol juice that I was topping off my smilin premium cartos and my prmium cowboy menthol cartos with and I was fine. I ordered vg wow boy and throats sore, but I think they are in wow carts.
How can you be allergic to a type of cart????

I can only vape wow cartos now and then,sux because I like them alot.I have a reaction to too much VG,I break out in a rash on my back and neck,if I keep going with VG it spreads.If I switch to 20% or less VG it stops and slowly goes away after a day or 2.So yes you can have a reaction to VG.

Might not be an allergy but a reaction to the increased vapor a LR element produces. Like I'm not allergic to bourbon, but I did have a reaction to drinking half a dozen doubles in a couple of hours on Friday night. I'm pretty sure if I had spaced them out over the course of a couple of days I'd have been ok.
I don't know for sure, but maybe the Wow and premium are made by 2 different companies. I know they use different recipes. Some things I prefer in Prem..others in Wow.
You can get P.G. at Tractor Supply store.

The opportunity for very ribald humor with that typo just makes it too easy... Kinda like those "skin protestants"...
