having been vaping for 1 week now, i am getting very concerned about the thick liquid that runs out of my nose . i have been told to that maybe its an allergy by someone but it only started last night. has anyone else got the same symptoms?
Hard to tell, Teddy. You may have a cold. Or you may be readjusting if you are withdrawing from tobacco. Or you may be sensitive to the flavouring in the cart or juice.
Another possibility is that you may be sensitive to Propylene Glycol. To see if it makes a difference you could try a Vegetable Glycerine based e-liquid such as Ecopure from Intellicig.com
There are lots of tobacco withdrawal symptoms which are a bit disquieting. I had a couple of nosebleeds - first I'd had since childhood. Try the health threads here for more info.
Before I started vaping I had a very alarming spell when water was running out of one nostril 8-o My dentist referred me to Guy's for specialist Xrays but by the time my appt came around it had stopped - anyway, no abnormality was detected. I think it could be just a blocked sinus. If the liquid is thick it could possibly mean there's an infection. I would visit doc if it doesn't clear up soon, but I wouldn't have thought it was caused by e-cig vapour.
If you think you are sensitive to something in eliquid then try different formulas - glycerine based with and without flavours and propylene glycol without flavours.
can i just say thank you to all who replied... as a newbie i am not quite adept at the inner workings of this particular forum.i am sure i will get the hang of it soon.
as for the mysterious liquid.... it appears to be a mixture of hay-fever(new to me) and my long abused lungs giving me back the s*** i have been pumping into them for years.
now if i could find a remedy for the incessant sneezes that are plaguing me...
You will be needing an anti-histamine med for the hayfever. It might be good to know this about it: It's a known side-effect of stopping with smoking, that any allergies can get quite a bit worse for the next half year (or a bit longer) after that; and then it can subdue again to what it was before or even less. So chances are, that you will only be needing meds for it this year and not next, if you didn't need meds when smoking.
