So my boyfriend tried refilling my vape. I always tell him how things should be done, but him, being a man, doesn't listen well. He spilled a couple drops on the table, and apparently thought since it smelled sweet and tasty, it must be okay to wipe up with his finger and lick it off. I told him "This stuff can be dangerous, don't put it in your mouth, go wash your hands." So obviously, he licks his fingers. He said it was indeed tasty. A few seconds later, he says he's getting lightheaded, and I s**t you not, he starts giggling. Then after a couple minutes, he says his stomach hurts and he feels sick. He complained about it for about 30 minutes, but he's sleeping now. At least, I think he's sleeping, I hope his heart didn't explode. Happy vaping!

He should be fine. I take it he doesn't smoke or vape?
I hate scary movies and I dislike any benadryl or any kind of painkillers. They affect me a lot stronger than most people. Ugh, hate the way they make me feel. Nicotine? Not so much. I have licked my fingers when I have gotten e-liquid on them....did that way back when I was using 24mg and continue to when I get a bit on my fingers to this day.

The body has a mechanism in it that will vomit out the offending nic if too much is ingested. I will leave this as a point of reference: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ecf-library/641253-risk-excess-nicotine-vaping.html

    Giggling?? Lightheaded?? I'm sorry about that, Ma'am. No telling what an improperly tuned man is capable of. For today, find some spiders for him to kill, and put some Schwarzenegger and Stallone movies on to-nite. I'll pick him up at 4:30 AM tomorrow for the hunting cabin.

    If he still "doesn't listen well" when he wakes up- that's great, we still have a chance.
