Is it possible to be completely allergic to Vaping

[Skinr1]

over the years I have done several attempts at vaping over Cigs ,
Even recently ,
All top of the line name brand juices
PG/VG various different levels and mixtures , everything , and each time I tried , total absolute failure
Horrible migraine head aches , nose bleeds , upset or sick to my stomach ,
Terrible chest pains , ENT visit 3 times
However with the reg Cigs , none of this happens , at all .
Is it possible for a person to be completely allergic to vaping products as a hole .

What nicotine level were you trying to vape? Most of those things can happen if the nic is too high.

Anything is possible. How likely is hard to say, but pretty low. Obviously if cigarettes don't bother you it's unlikely the nicotine. How much do you smoke? And did you ever try just an unflavored nic juice to see how that worked?

That is odd, but perhaps vaping is not for you. Have you given any though to the patch, or gum, or smokeless tobacco?

I remember when I first started vaping and was vaping 24mg e-liquid I would get shaky, nauseous and would start to get a headache. I lowered it to 18mg and it worked better for a while. When I started feeling that way again I lowered the strength again and was OK again. My body would let me know when it was time to lower it.

I don't know that the same is happening to you but it is possible. My sister started at 18 mg and it numbed her face. she went down to 12 and was fine with that strength. I know you said that you have tried different pg/vg ratios but have you tried different nic strengths?

So strong a reaction would be unusual. For the first couple of weeks vaping made me very slightly queasy. I figured that reaction would pass and it did. I was a dual user during that time which was intentional to give myself time to adjust to the vaping experience. Do you have the same reacations if you smoke the same as always and do some vaping too?

If it's possible to be allergic to peanuts, I'd say anything is possible. Because peanuts are awesome !

It might be the metal in the coils. Have you had a allergy test done yet? I had my ENT do mine for my pg allergy.

I guess it is Possible?

But before you Give Up on e-Cigarettes completely, Please try One Thing.

Unflavored e-Liquid.

Circus peanuts are even better, the only risk is tooth decay.

Peanut allergies can be really scary. Some folks have horrendous, life threatening reactions. Fortunately that level of severity is pretty rare. I've never seen that happen with circus peanuts.

whatever happens with circus peanuts, it's gotta be intents.

I find it ironic because I have the Horrendous, Life Threatening reaction to bees which is the Avi of @pdib

A lifelong allergy sufferer here. It ain't fun and sometimes it's not easy to nail down what is causing it. Your symptoms don't sound like an allergy but one thing I've learned from ECF is that everyone is different.

You didn't say what strength of juice you are using or what flavor(s). I'm with the others in thinking you ought to try unflavored, perhaps even with no nic in it. You say you're in "sf" and assume that is SF, CA. If so, you, me, and at least two others in this thread are screwed tomorrow when the new CA tobacco tax is imposed. 0mg shouldn't be taxed but...

I had severe problems, eventually debilitating acid-reflux type problem, with a juice once. Never had the problem before or since. It was a sweetener in the juice. Get the condensation in your mouth, swallow it, pure hell over time. I've seen several other people on the forum with the same/similar problem with some sweeteners.

Still, it sounds like your problem is too much nic. If it were me, I'd try 0mg unflavored and if it worked, start adding a little nic until you hit your sweet spot.

Best of luck to you, hope you find what works.

Peanuts? Yuck, and no, I'm not allergic to them. WB, long time no see.

OP,
You've had medical intervention multiple times from vaping?
Don't vape..
