Sounds like the old joke

Doctor, it hurts every time I do this
Then don't do that anymore

Our tastes and bodies change for unknown reasons. Cinnamon vapes were my favorite, then one day I took and drag and my lungs felt like I had inhaled fire. I thought the carto was burned out, but when I tried several other tanks with different cinnamon flavors, I discovered I can't handle strong cinnamon anymore. Oh grrr! I really liked it! Time to find a new vape. What a bother.

another doctor joke:

A man once went to see a doctor complaining of aches and pains all over his body.

"Doctor my whole body hurts me," he moaned. The doctor asked him to show exactly where the pain was.

The man explained, "When I touch my shoulder, it hurts. When I touch my back it hurts. When I touch my legs, they hurt."

The doctor did a thorough examination and told the man-

"Sir, there is nothing wrong with your body. Your finger is broken. That is why it hurts wherever you touch. Get your finger plastered, rest it for a couple of weeks and all of your pains will disappear."!!

I had this problem with certain flavors before when I vaped 12mg. Popular flavors like Pair of Deuces by Villain Vapors and Honey Do by Uncle Junks. With fruit flavors that irritated my throat, I usually mellowed it out with some vanilla and/or menthol. All irritation problems stopped when I leveled down to 6 and haven't bought any nic level above since then.

I had somewhat the same issue about a week ago, ended up being I wasn't drinking enough water. Went away pretty quickly once I upped my intake. I do tend to chain vape at home though.. Just keep an eye on it

Drinking water is essential.

Sequence: Vape, drink, vape, drink, drink, vape.....

You get the picture.

The hydration thing sounds like a good idea but i didnt see where you posted what kind of rig you were using. Could you possibly have burnt wicks/filler? I noticed when i was using the vivi nova that if my wicks got yucky/burnt, it would cause throat irritation but not always the burnt taste. Changing heads would fix it for a while. I havent had that issue since going to the Kanger Protank.

Just a thought.

I am using a protank now and ive tried drink vape drink vape sequence (most effective but still getting lots of phlegm)

See if you can get unflavored PG and VG (at your current nic level). Vape each for a week (no flavors) and see if you notice no irritation. If there's no irritation with one or the other (or both) then you know it's the flavoring. I'm having to do this too. The part I just described is the easy part. If it's the flavors (like my problem), it's like finding a needle in a haystack. :rolleyes:
