I'm relatively new to vaping, and I have not suffered this particular condition; however, this reminds me of when I fist started smoking a pipe.
I was so excited about the new tobaccos, pipes, accessories and routines that I found myself wanting to smoke all the time. Everything went fine for the fist week or so. Of course, I didn't really have any experience with smoking a pipe, and didn't know any of the tips and tricks that come from experience. So, I simply puffed away--alot. Then, about two weeks in, my tongue went numb and I lost all sensation of taste. I was devastated because I could no longer enjoy all of those new flavors. This experience lasted about two weeks, and I was convinced that I had to give my new hobby up and go back to cigarettes.
However, in desperation, I visited the forums and realized that this was a common experience. In my case, I learned that I was way overdoing it and my technique was all wrong. So, I changed up my technique and cut back on the marathon sessions. Eventually, my sensation of taste came back and I was able to strike a balance with the amount I smoked.
The moral of this story, if there is a moral, is that in addition to all of the wonderful advice given above, you may also want to look at how much and how often you are vaping. As with anything new, we tend to get excited and push our bodies further and quicker that they are capable of adapting to new situations. While vaping is certainly less harmful than smoking, we are still sucking hot vapors into our mouths. Depending on what your tongue is accustom up, it is bound to object.
The good news is that the body is also capable of remarkable adaptability. Whether or not you want to continue vaping is up to you, but if you want to continue, your body should eventually adapt--and in the long run, thank you for the healthier lifestyle choice you have made.
