This will be kinda long but please bear with me if you know anything please let me know.

Me and my gf just tsrated vaping a week ago, I'm fine, she's not.

She went with the Intellicig. She purchased "high" but she normally smoke Benson and Hedges Lights, so mabybe she is getting too much nico.

She told me of a few timers over the weekend she got head spins, then last night it was farly chilly in our room while sleeping and I noticed she had the covers off and we wear no jammies. So I woke her and asked if she was OK, she said feel my head, she was cold sweating pretty heavily. She said she was having head spins or vertigo feelings. It wasnt unbearable so we went back to sleep.

She left for work this morning and wghen I came home for lunch she was here. Said she almost wrecked from dissyness feeling and since she already has nerve damage in her legs and dont walk the best, she returned home.

Could this be from too much nico since she is normally used to smoking lights and is now taking in 18mg?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

It sounds a lot like too much nicotine. Ive gotten the same feelings when Im testing a new mod and over do it. Try cutting the juice way down with VG and see if it helps.

You can usually tell if it is nic since she should feel much better in a few hours of no additional vaping. If she woke up and still felt sick then its not the nicotine.

Id depends on how much she smoked before too. If you take in too much nic for your body, you will feel those effects. If she only smoked a half of a pack a day, then that's probably your answers.

If she's reacting that badly to it, i would tell her to put it down until she can get some lower nic level.

If she continues to have these side-affects please seek medical attention.

I have gotten the same exact way when smoking the first real cigarette in the morning when i smoke cigarettes... i only get this way however if i do not eat or if i have an empty stomach.. takes about 5 mins for the effects to start and about 7 or so for them to go away... i get really weak and start sweating really bad... i would say its because of the nicotine for sure

When I stopped smoking (cold turkey) after 4 years of smoking (just "puffing", not inhaling) I slept 20h/day for just about 2 weeks. It was pretty hard. Probably it could be linked with this type of problem, even if your girlfriend is vaping nicotine, (the dosis is not as much as from a cigarette and there are some other chemicals in cigarettes, which could be addictive).
The very best idea is: go to a doctor with her. These are very common symptoms, so you couldn't be sure they're just linked to vaping.
I wish your gf gets well soon.

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english- it's obviously not my native language:rolleyes:

Everything is cool....It turns out she was over doing it compared to the benson and Hedges shes used to smoke.

One other thing that helped her get too much nic, she would lay the ecig in an ashtray at night that made it slightly tilt up, so the cart end was down. the juice would go down there and have a pretty big nic hit the first few times in the morning.

I noticed this when I took a hit in the middle of the night, I liked it but I guess is a bit strong for her...lol
