Side Effect

[VaEHp]

I'm always drinking water, I get a bit of dry mouth sometimes depending on the vape flavor and get a bit of dry skin on face more than pre-vape days but since vaping has anyone experience Tinnitus (ringing of the ears) ?


I seemd to have aquired a mild equal sided version of this. I'm not sure if its just my age lol but curious if I'm alone on this one. It happened about 3 weeks into switching, body was detoxing, did a bit of over vaping to compensate with withdrawls, had higher nic juice at the time, was still trying to find my comfortable zone with it all. I'm getting it checked for good measure. I suspect its a combination of things with the body changes and age but not sure atm.


Regardless of the small side effects I'm very pleased and proud to be a Vaper.


In the meantime... Use the Vape and May the Vape be with you !

I've seen a few threads that mention tinnitus. If you do a search you will find them. Here is one that I remembered reading: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ence-word-caution-musicians-audio-people.html

I have not experience this from vaping myself. A few months ago, I had some weird ear things going on (tinnitus and just weird popping/balance issues), but it was after a trip to an amusement park where I had ridden lots of spinning rides and roller coasters. So I think that's what caused it for me.

dry skin on the face was something that in testing, monkeys got from being exposed to pg in the air it was at saturation levels do some research on it i read it somewhere can't remember where

Tinnitus is a side effect - reported as nicotine overdose and can be overcome fairly easily. You will find info at V4 (section 2) http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...hen-quitting-tobacco-changing-ecigarette.html

Hope it gets better quickly!

Status update this post, I've visited an Ear Specialist and Doctor, full testing and examination,
Conclusion, I do have some mild ear damage which has caused the Tinnitus, not sure how it happened but no indications that it is related or caused by Vapes.

Just curious, what was their response to hear you are vaping?

I have problems with tinnitus, so that is a bummer to hear, no problems so far while vaping yet, but I know for sure regular cigs don't help either on that front.

"Conclusion, I do have some mild ear damage which has caused the Tinnitus, not sure how it happened but no indications that it is related or caused by Vapes."
Thats good to hear, no pun intended

It was brief in conversation but with the health care people I encountered they all seemed interested when I had said I quit for just over 4 months using Vapor Technique. They said good good or oh good for you, they seemed pleased I quit Tobacco. No negative vibe at all. I wish I could have talked more but the opportunity and time wasn't there to do so.

Hey its a modern nicotine delivery system that works ! I think everyone knows it but here in Canada... Health Canada, Big Tobacco, Revenue Canada and whom ever else in the powers seats are the fuss makers. I agree we need some rules and guidelines for a modern safe society but not some bully tactic overpowering controling greed monster like what goes with the Tobacco Industry. you know like ...this is a scent free environment... a little respect for others and carry on and Vape On !
