They start their diagnosis by what the patient tells them.
Right, and the first thing they'll tell you is don't do anything you don't need to do. My dentist for instance, insists I drink only water.
My physicians before I found a sensible one said 5g each of Tylenol and ibuprophen daily was fine, but I shouldn't smoke... o_O

Agree. Doctors don't always need to know everything from the start. Just because the graduated med school doesn't mean they have an open mind.

Also, about sub ohm high nic content, I switched from a pod with 35mg to a rda and mid at 6mg, and quickly dropped to 3mg as it felt as though I were having a heart attack. Constantly. So, yeah, gonna cut the dose in thirds going forward. I keep the older, higher content juice around for first thing in the morning, but find my body quickly adapts. To a new dose.

Like please stay alive and vape at 3mgs! So you can take a jolt of nic in the AM and be okay, but then it’s too much?

The reason I said not to mention vaping is, what if the doctor knows nada about vaping but is dead set against it? If there’s nothing wrong, fine. If he has some lung thing, okay. But why prejudice them in advance? I dunno, I have a suspicious mind!
Your mission Jim, is to not vape over 6mgs sub ohm! ;)

I could taper off and start using 0mg juices.

What about the 'buzz' you wanted? I was under the impression that the buzz was your original reason for vaping a high percentage of Nicotine. But who knows?

I quote, "...I recently bought a salt based 50 mg cause of the stronger buzz lol..."

I'm taking hard hits.

You’re like the poster boy for bad nic habits! lol Can you try to not DL? Do you have a MTL tank that you can use, maybe? It might help you to have a hard pull on that, and at 18 or so, you should be okay. I think drawing hard on a sub ohm tank might be giving too much nic at once.

The buzz might land him in the hospital. Don’t encourage wayward youths, CMD! ;)

I really am not encouraging him, he seems somewhat erratic in his thinking and his goals. One day he gets 50mg for a great buzz and another day he is going to switch to 0mg nicotine to avoid an emergency room visit.

I got some 25 mg juice, im gonna use that instead. I'm too nic sick.

And don’t touch your stash of 50! Lock it up or throw it out, whatever. If you chain vape on 12mg, you won’t get sick. Drink water or herbal tea, relax, and take a shower later on. It might pull some of the nicotine out of you. :)

That’s from all that nicotine! J/K
Anyhoo, if we can suggest some safe vaping facts, I hope he listens. Basically if he stays on 24mgs for now, he’ll be okay, I hope. Hopefully he realizes it’s not so cool to feel crappie like that, and stays in a safe range of mgs.

I'll keep it and take a rip of it once a day maybe. I have a few friends I could give it to. With warning.

Maybe a Zlide or Naut Mini in a low watt range? Enough to give you flavor and vapor, but not enough to blow your coils out. The tight draw might satisfy like chaining the other setups. Don’t get a super expensive one, you don’t know if you’ll like it.

High doses of nicotine can make a persons psychological state eratic. I was a right ..... when I switched to vaping, as high nic was the only thing to get me over the hump of wanting to burn one.

Coffee and tea have water in them, though. I kinda don’t like plain water!
There’s a lot of talk about Ibuprofen being bad, and aspirin. Opiates are prolly okay, since BP makes them, though. ;)

I had a thought about quitting but idk.
I think it's the thinking out loud that is portraying the eratic mentality. If my train of thought were on display, well, I shudder to think... ;).

For what it's worth, from someone who was sucking down 10ml a day of 50mg salts when first switching, I now sub ohm 3 mg, and if I have ANY caffeine in me at all, I can FEEL my aorta. Every time I lower my dose, without fail, with in DAYS I will get a similar effect from HALF as much nic. Tolerance is horrible with nic. Just think what a cup of coffee would feel like if you haven't had any caffeine in a month. It's quite similar.

Quit later. First get on a steady dose, so you’re not freaking out on too much or too little nic, imho. It’s a habit you picked up, not sure it’s that easy to quit. I like vaping as much as I liked smoking, maybe more. You might too, if you don’t make yourself sick. If you have a good rig to vape with, it’s so much better. Doesn’t have to be a $200 mod and $100 tank, either. Just something that works really well. An Aegis mod and a good tank. Maybe an AIO that can take sub and above 1ohm coils as backup.
