So I am trying to quit analogs, and Im using my MVP v2 with a dripper.

But Im getting concerned because my hands (well the 10 fingers) seem to twitch constantly, everyday, for a few hours. Could this be from vaping, or the switch? Or maybe its totally unrelated?

It makes me feel concerned, and I never got this from analogs... pretty annoying...

It could be from the switch. A nervous tic. What mg of nic are you using? What mg of nic did you smoke (full, lights, milds)? Are you using both?

When I started I used cigs and the e-cig and I had a tic in one of my eyelids for a few days. This eventually passes as I reduced my cigarette consumption. You could be getting too much nicotine, a known stimulant, that is causing this reaction.

    It's from quitting analogs , there's other chemicals besides nicotine that you're no longer getting , but it's best to have a Doc check you out to be on the safe side .

    I used to smoke about 6 or so Marb reds a day. Now im going between a 9mg and 6mg juice. I had 1 marb red yesterday and the day before, so today will be my first analog free day. But having all my fingers twitch really makes things difficult lol

    Not being any sort of medical professional it's hard to say. ;)

    It could be your body trying to learn how to live without the 4000-odd chemicals in cigarettes, it could be mild dehydration, it could be totally unrelated to vaping/nicotine/withdrawal.

    If it persists, please see a doctor soon.

    After smoking over 2000 harmful chemicals found in cigarettes I'd think its safe to assume your body is having withdrawals. Withdrawals from all the other chemicals big tobacco puts in tobacco to keep us hooked.

    It passes after a couple of weeks.

    BTW: I'm no doctor but I am a chemist.

    Yes, I had something similar when I quit smoking, except I got huge soars on the roof of my mouth as well. I thought for sure it was from the warm vapor, but apparently after going to the ENT, it was my mouth adjusting to the new "climate" without all the cigarette chemicals and is a common sign of withdrawal from analogs. WEIRD!

    I smoked all my life (I'm retired now) but I didn't experience mild gum bleeding until i went from 6mg to 0mg. That frigging 'whatever' really gets you one way or the other (I'm back to 6). Wake up in the middle of the night?―It's not what you think―It's the drug telling you to fix. You really have to accommodate it somehow. It's there and it's not going away―ever.
