Nicotine affects our digestive systems, that might be a factor.

Let's not be too hasty to stop using propylene glycol eliquid, those problems Smo mentioned refer to direct application of propylene glycol, not inhaling.
Chances are that you can't inhale more than 2ml per day. Lots will be exhaled and the rest broken down in your body. That's not a lot of pg in the grand scheme of things, you probably eat more than that without noticing.
I'm not convinced that inhaling a couple of ml would cause this particular problem. The thing to do would be to use glycerine for a while until everything is clear and stable and then try pg again.
I think I am jinxed.. do you ever notice when you do something nice for someone it comes back to bite you in the ...?
Now I have one too... this sucks!
Gona go to pharmacy later.
Damn it.

What about the glycerine? Isn't it sweeter and breaks down as glucose? I used to have Candidas/thrush problems years ago, because Drs. didn't know better back then and had me on antibiotics for 10yrs. during 5 sinus surgeries for polyps that kept growing back in sinus' and throat. It took years to even get back to a partially healthy life, because the Candidas was so bad and the antibiotics had greatly compromised my immune system.
All this to say I have NOT had any yeast issues in several years, did fine the first month vaping. UNTIL I started cutting the regular pg nic. liquid in half with glycerine. Now I believe I have thrush in mouth/throat and ears. Also worst pimples on face ever!! and they are mostly on lower face near mouth. Along with shortness of breath and heaviness in chest. I'm thinking it's either an allergic reaction to glycerine OR it's the glycerine breaking down as glucose, triggering the yeast issues. So you may be on to something here, just not convinced it's the PG.
Anyone else think it may be the glycerine?
