I have this problem where my skin is cracking and scabbing over, puss is oozing out from between my fingers and toes, I can't move my tongue, my vomit is green and purple, my eyes are swollen shut, I have a nasty genital discharge, and this comment totally nauseates my wife. Am I vaping wrong?

CALL or VISIT a DOCTOR.

The only problem I have is with people who say that for any concerns you ever had about your body and vaping you should run to see the doctor. Hubby has done that for the flu or a cold two or three times now in the last couple of years, even though he wasn't that sick. The meds he was given sure did make him sick as a dog. Meds he didn't need but the doctors seem to feel that they have to write a scrip if you walk in the door.


Yeah, if it looks like he's getting pneumonia or something, fine, I'll tell him to see the doctor but for minor stuff, I'll go with home remedies.

There is a place and a time for going to see the doctor, that is for sure, but going to see the doctor over every minor thing isn't going to help you.

Agreed, but bleeding from your rectum or having blood in your you-know-what is something that I would consider more than just a "minor thing" that goes beyond having the common cold or flu. But that's just me.

Agreed. Definitely would have told the guy to go see a doctor in this case.

I know I'm not special and I may be out of line and the moderators may not like this post but I'm getting a little freaked out every time I go to the forum home page and I see the post title about bloody stool in the Ask the Veterans forum category. Now I know I may sound insensitive an uncaring toward a fellow vaper but if you have something medically wrong with you that is manifesting itself by way of blood being where it shouldn't..... CALL or VISIT a DOCTOR. There is this wonderful thing online thing called WebMD, USE IT. New people coming on this forum who may be seeking support to quit smoking could possibly see that and head for the hills. If I were new I know I would. Thank you and I apologize if I have offended anyone.



as long as I can't 'smell' it,no prob. Besides, web md promotes drug use which is detrimental to ones health. Wonder why web md doesn't get yelled @ for promoting drugs? That's right,they are approved (by themselves).

At one time WebMD was an excellent source for information but they have succumbed to the big bucks of pharm and their website isn't what it used to be. I try to look at the Mayo clinic site and some others and not rely on one source for info. The British websites are often a good source of information. IMHO They just don't seem to go quite so overboard on the tests and meds angle and seem to give more detailed info.

Some of the comments on the first page of this thread totally cracked me up!!

I admit it...I hadn't strayed to the "Ask the Veterans" thread lately, so only just since reading this thread did I notice it.

Someone PLEASE ask another question there? Please? We need another "lead thread" there, I think.

(My sympathies to the poor sufferer, but I'm not only not a doctor but I don't play one on T.V. either. So I can't help at all)

Ocelot, I just hope someone approves it! And I really hope you don't get an infraction. I would love to see that off the front page too, even though I feel bad for that person it's a little much to be asking on the interwebs.

That was my feeling exactly. I'm not unsympathetic, but the question was asked and answered. My attempted thread was quite polite, so maybe I will only get a smack on the nose.

You should avoid PG. You're probably allergic to it. :laugh:

perhaps a sticky with adverse effects of nicotine, PG and VG could be placed. This should contain a short list of all the most common side/adverse effects and not an exhaustive list of everything slightly possible. (This could be done in conjunction with the MD members). Refer all symptoms related questions to the stickey and if your symptoms are not on the short list, not likely to be vaping related and should be evaluated by your MD.
