Hey,
Just seeing if anyone else has issues in regards to kidney / flank ache when vaping PG?
I've only been vaping now for around 2 months, started with 50/50 cheap juice and had originally noticed a "tightening" of the throat after vaping but this subsided pretty quick and after also moving onto 70/30 VG/PG premium juice, i had no issues.
Few weeks ago started noticing an ache particular when moving side to side or sat in an odd posture, that feels like bruising on my right had side, towards the side/back which im pretty sure is the kidney region lol. This started to progress to the point where i noticed after a 5 minute vaping sesh, i could feel the ache without bringing it on via moving and it slowly started to move to me left kidney region also.
Anyway, done a lot of reading online and read that PG can cause kidney problems, of course this wasn't stating that vaping PG can do that as there is not enough studies yet, but handling it in factories, intravenous medical use, ETC can.
Started experimenting with my own DIY after reading about it and used 90 VG 10 PG (10 being flavouring) and although the symptoms got much better, they where still there after a good sesh, just not as bad. Finally moved on to 100% VG unflavoured as unfortunately all my flavours are PG the symptoms subsided within maybe 2 days, no more issues with the ache/pain when vaping, very odd!
Bit of a bummer really as i now have some half used premium juice from the shops and also some i had been experimenting with DIY and loved my churros and custard juice! Ahh well hopefully after getting some VG flavours i may be able to make something as nice
Just thought id share my experiences!
Happy vaping
