Nicotine OD, ringing in ears constantly

[swedishfish]

There was another member here who posted about ear ringing too with too much nicotine.

Keep some light nic around if you feel you vape too much. I do vape low nic (1/2 of my usual nic.) at night. At first I didn't think it helped a lot with insomnia but it does seem to be helping.

Im all vaping since yesterday, vaping a lot with a lot of ear ringin but I will stick with it and not use analogs

Was still smoking 1-2 paks and vaping this last few weeks............... ....e

But yeah I will try to stick with the vaping only.
Im trying to inhale less.

I have 16mg liquid, is there anything readily available that I could use to cut the juice down some?

Not drinking too much, well not drinking at home anymore but yeah loud ringing in my ears.. Im sure its the nic

Its not the vaping alone.Your smoking,vaping,drinking and drinking coffee.Thats unhealthy.Stop smoking and drink some water instead of coffee and alcohol. I promise you will feel better than you do now.

If you can get some vegetable glycerine USP from a pharmacy, you can use that to cut your e-liquid. You might try 3 parts e-liquid to 1 part glycerine, to get to 12mg.

Please stay hydrated.

Definitely a good thing you went to the doctor. As others have said, you engaged in a variety of unhealthy activity all at once and in rather large doses. Hopefully the grief passes and you can return to normal sooner rather than later.

I've got ringing in one ear from an inner ear injury (years ago) that's permanent but gets louder when I take any stimulant (nicotine, caffeine, ADD meds, etc.) I also have 4kHz hearing loss so I have background ringing in both ears, sometimes pretty much silent, sometimes very much there. That ringing is also affected by stimulants. As I sit here vaping I have two tones going in my left ear and one in my right. In the morning the ringing will be much quieter until I reach over and grab my morning vape, and gets louder as the day progresses. Just my experience with something similar.

My ringing is due to physical damage to my ears in one way or another. If you didn't undergo a physical trauma (barotrauma from diving, impact to the side of the head, extremely loud noise) when your ringing started, I'd suspect (I'm not a doctor but have done a lot of research due to my own issues) that it's the stimulants directly (or stimulants indirectly via dehydration) causing it.

I'd suggest dropping your caffeine and nic intake some. The results aren't going to be immediate and will last even longer if you're constantly adding to the levels of stimulants in your system. As many others have said, get hydrated - you're doing three things simultaneously that are dehydrating you. Hope everything gets better.

Picking up some VG at local drug store as someone else suggested would be a quick solution to reduce the nic strength of your liquid. You could probably also pick up syringes cheap there too so you can dilute in a fairly accurate/measurable way.

If you have a lot of liquid on hand that you need to dilute, and the liquid you got came from a vendor that has the flavor at lower levels, you could get some lower nic liquid and mix them together also. I bought quite a bit of 16mg liquid and have found out as I've been vaping that 16mg is really more nic than I need with the amount of vaping I'm doing, so my plan is to buy some 0mg liquid of the same flavors and mix them.

tinitus = high blood pressure in most cases

Remember Clint Eastwood: "A man'a got to know his limitations." I hope all works out for you.

I would suggest going to the doctor for a quick check up at a walk-in wouldnt hurt.
