Hi. First, I've got to say: Great community here! So, I've been trying different e-cigs and liquids for a while now, and am a bit put-off by what seems to be sensitivities to one or more ingredients of the e-liquids that I've had.
My first kit was a typical drug store cheapie, and that made me feel horrible. Painful, dry throat, headache, and queasy, as well as just 'off', mentally. I ceased use of that, and went to research the things a bit...
I've been lurking here for a month or so, and I've guessed that I'm PG-sensitive early on. May have gotten a bit dehydrated rather quickly from it, too. I tried topping the carto off with some Humco Glycerin USP some time later, and letting it sit for awhile to hopefully mix a bit. That made it tolerable, so it gave me hope.
I went ahead and bought a couple of T-Rex models in order to try some VG Juices, and those have mostly still caused me some trouble, like a lung-hit that sends me into a coughing fit, which I don't get with the original pg or analogs. Recovering from a bad cold makes it difficult to judge anything fairly at the moment, though. I suspect that flavorings may be causing me problems.
I'm planning on trying just plain unflavored VG nic juice, and maybe just some of the pure VG by dripping, in the morning. I have yet to try dripping at all, but it's difficult to try different things with carts.
Anyway, I was hoping that if anyone that had a puzzling intolerance to certain vg and pg liquids happens by this post, they might be able to point me toward something that worked well for them.
Well, I'm off to have an analog before bed (sigh...), and I'll continue to look for answers in the morning. 'Nite!
