How much are you vaping and what strength of nicotine? I just started couple weeks ago, but usually vape about 1-2mg a day at either 11 or 18 mg, and no issues. The only symtoms that I am experiencing is the dry mouth (need to drink more water) and my throat is little scratchy. I'm sure more of old timers will chime in. I hope your symptoms go away soon! That doesn't sound fun! : (

I haven't had any such symptoms. Just need to keep a drink on hand to keep your mouth dry. Other people have had reactions to PG that send them to the bathroom often ... so they changed over to VG.

Maybe a few zits on my face that I believe are a result of PG as well.

I had a slight issue like yours (mostly gas) when I first started, then over a couple of weeks, it reduced. Now I don't really have any issues at all.

If you are using 100% PG, that could be what is causing you issues, as I've heard others mention this. May want to try a mix of PG/VG or a straight VG.

Symptoms of vaping? Symptoms of quitting smoking perhaps?
You're detoxing, or you need to up the nic do to nicotine withdraw. But this is a normal reaction for those that just removed some 4000+ toxins from their life. I only got the "quitter zits" everyone has different Symptoms. Look over quit smoking side effects on the web and exclude those like depression and anxiety because you still getting the nic (if your level is right for you the Dopamine your body produces is enough) some sites just focus on nicotine withdraw. There are more things in a cig that was making us sick. Your body is cleaning them out the best and fastest way it know how.
I will say watch you don't dehydrate. Extra waste = extra fluids needed. Drink Gatorade or some such to keep your electrolytes up. Not an expert just an opinion. Contact your doc if it continues.

Thank you Adrena.

Just to clarify, VG is vegetable gylcerin. You can either buy your juice with a VG base or mix some straight VG with your current PG juice. VG is thicker, so keep that in mind. I mix VG in all my juices. It will give you more vapor, but less throat hit. I like both effects. It is also less prone to dry your thoat for most people.

I've started to do that too.

I had the same symptom. It will pass, like Adrena said, when your body has gotten rid of the majority of the toxins. I don't know about you, but I'd rather have frequent bathroom visits from quitting than a month of hacking all of that stuff up. JMHO

I've heard that if your nic level is too high that can happen. But if that's the problem most people also experience dizziness and the shakes.

 

[beandean]

just a guess, but maybe the 3x fluid intake might up your toilet ratio!

 

[lo thatch]

Yup---stopped after about a month or so.....but it was not my imagination!

 

[BCman]

i can relate, the first few days for me were the same too.
I dont think my body was used to that much water i was taking in with the vaping and did everything it could to get rid of it.....
got better after a few days.

OR you can go to your local Walmart and pick up some Humco Glycerin- Pharmacy section. It's USP grade. There are many threads that prove it's safe and pure, including a long review from a pharmacist. There has been some controversy whether all VG is vegetable derived, but I'm 99.9% sure it is. This is due to the manufacturing costs. Vegetable Glycerin is readily available and cheapest to produce. It is also called just Glycerin. Same thing.
