I just wondered whether anyone else had experienced this while vaping? For the last week or so I've been experiencing it constantly and I think it may be connected to vaping as I tried giving it a rest for half a day and it went away and then started again as soon as I picked up the ecig. It's not exactly excruciating but hurts enough to make me worry. I'd say I'm a mid to heavy vaper using a nicotine strength of 12mg for the past six months. Has anyone else experienced this? Did it pass after a while? Please don't say I have to give up vaping!!!!

I've had this after a day of heavy cigarette smoking. Try dropping the nic level and see if it helps.

I had similar feelings in my legs randomly a few months before I gave up smoking but haven't had any in the last six months and as I was on 30 Asian Marlboro Reds a day and have dropped to 12mg I'd thought I might have lowered enough to escape those kind of problems but you're probably right. Time to try 6-8mg!
I have an hereditary neuropathy (nerve damage) and that's basically what it feels like. I don't get it from vaping, I get it from bad genetics. I actually find the moderate vaping helps reduce those shooting pains for me. Smoking did as well, so likely the nicotine helped somehow. In fact, there is some research on nicotine as a treatment for pain...
