PG causing ear ringing/tinnitus?

[rdjg22]

Trying out 70/30 0mg to see if it could be the nic and the ear ringing picks up right away. This f'in sucks! Maybe it's an allergy to the sweeteners they use, I hope it is cause I can't stand 100% VG....no TH and gross flavour.

zoiDman, thanks for the link, knew something was missing in all this for some people. You guys really ought to read that link and pay attention to the part about sweeteners. Some people have a real problem with them and is an element often overlooked when trying to pinpoint a ailment.

It is Difficult to Pinpoint something Sometimes.

And Often, there is a Collection of Contributing Factors. And Not just One Smoking Gun.

Yeah, there's hundreds of people here who can attest to that. You rarely hear about the sweetener thing outside of the DIY forum, probably due in large part because you have no clue what sweetener they use in commercial juice.

Guys and Girls plz remember this... Even though vaping is much safer than real cigarettes, Nicotine constricts the blood vessels which increases the risk of forming a blood clot (DVT). I had a blood clot in my leg in March and decided to quit smoking and start vaping. I was not aware that it was the nicotine that had caused my DVT.

(It wasn't only the nicotine that caused it. I guess me sitting in a car for many hours with my leg fallen to sleep could have also been a factor.)

I do not believe that vaping is totally safe. There are still too many unknowns about a variety of vape issues that could turn out to be bad for us. I do feel that for most people it is safer than smoking.

Nicotine and caffeine both constrict blood vessels. Anyone who has issues with this needs to be aware of it. OTOH, I believe that moderate use of either would not adversely affect a healthy person.

But this is of course just my opinion

I agree zoiDman. Though I have had tinnitus for some time and it has sometimes been quite loud, I have never done much research on it past what it took to assure myself that it would not hurt me and it was not caused by an underlying condition that should be treated. There are a good number of causes of tinnitus and probably many cases of multiple factors involved which is why many times no one figures it out. I ran it past my doctor a couple of decades ago and had a couple of tests done which came back negative. After that I just let it be and adjusted. We are a very adaptable species

I think this is a very Balanced View of e-Cigarettes and e-Liquid use Ryedan.

And one that I also hold.
